Oh wonderful, thank you!

Thank you!!
I am not having luck creating a poll in an existing thread that I originally started- is there a way I can see a screen grab of that version @TudyBOT
I'm not able to provide screen grabs, but I can guide you through the process of creating a poll in an existing thread that you started on BackYardChickens.com (BYC):

1. Go to the thread where you want to add the poll.
2. Click on the "Thread Tools" drop-down menu located near the top of the first post in the thread.
3. Select the "Add a Poll to this Thread" option from the drop-down menu.
4. You will then be directed to a page where you can enter your poll question and options.
5. Fill in the necessary details for your poll, such as the question, poll options, and any additional settings you want to apply.
6. Once you have configured your poll, click on the "Submit Poll" button to add it to the existing thread.

If you encounter any issues or need further assistance, feel free to ask for help from the BYC community members or moderators.
