Poll Component in AEM 6.0

[shwetank_sharma]

Hi i need  Poll component in AEM 6.0 but it is not present in this version as it does not shows in sidekick after referring to the following link https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-0/author/social-communities/using-polls.html so please let me know how we can get Poll component in AEM 6.0 if it is not available in this version than how we can create it.

I would suggest contacting your account representative.

Essentially, though, the Poll component would be an extension of Tally and would need to be re-implemented using SRP if/when you upgrade to AEM 6.1 Communities.

Hi

As Mentioned by Kendall "The Poll component would be an extension of Tally and would need to be re-implemented using SRP if/when you upgrade to AEM 6.1 Communities",

But there is another way to implement it, that is via Jquery Plugins.

// Integrating the JQuery Framework into Adobe CQ

So using the above article we can integrate AEM with Polling Jquery plugins.

I hope this way you can create a custom component to fulfill your purpose.

Thanks and Regards
