Can polls be edited?

Question, can Polls be edited on this forum? Once a Poll is posted it can not be changed but some forums offer to add additional options after the Poll is published...just wondering. THANKS!

Unfortunately, the vBulletin software doesn't allow editing a poll after it is submitted.

However, you can PM a moderator or admin (like me) and they will edit the poll for you. Supply the thread id, the changes and/or new options you want added to the poll.

Thanks Mal....it's not that important to bother the mods every few hours to add an option...LOL I just noticed on one forum I am on the poster can add options but not edit what is already posted. I guess a different platform.

I just checked and it is the 1911Forum.

That forum uses XenForo forum software. TFL uses vBulletin.

I figured there was a method to that madness. Thanks for the info!
