Secret Poll Guide: Create পাসওয়ার্ড-সুরক্ষিত অ্যানোনিমাস Polls

Whether you're deciding on a restaurant for a team dinner, gathering team opinions, or making a group decision, polls come in handy. But with most polling tools, anyone with the link can participate, which can skew the results.

LOCK.PUB's Secret Poll ensures that only people who know the password can vote. Gather accurate opinions without outside interference.

How Does It Work?

Creating a Poll

1. Enter a title -- Write the poll topic (e.g., "February team dinner location")
2. Add options -- Add 2 to 10 voting options
3. Set a password -- Set a password required to participate
4. Share the link -- Send the generated link to participants
5. Vote -- Participants enter the password and cast their vote

Duplicate Vote প্রতিরোধ

Duplicate votes are prevented using session-based tracking. Once someone has voted, they cannot vote again from the same browser. Fair polling without requiring sign-up.

Picking a Restaurant or Venue

The most common use case. Share the password in your team group chat, and only team members can vote.

Poll setup example:
Title: Where should we go for Friday dinner?
Options: BBQ / Sushi / Chinese / Italian
Password: teamdinner
Expiration: Thursday 6pm

Team Decision-Making

Vote on project direction, schedules, tool choices, and other internal team decisions. Since it's অ্যানোনিমাস, people can vote honestly without worrying about what their boss thinks.

Club & School Activities

Use it to decide club activity dates, trip destinations, or কীভাবে spend club funds. Only members who know the password can participate, preventing outsiders from casting prank votes.

Events & Giveaways

Use it for events where participants choose among several options. Simply share the participation code (password) only with event attendees.

Helpful Settings Tips

Number of Options

• 2 -- Yes/No votes (e.g., Should we have a team dinner or not?)
• 3-5 -- Standard multiple choice (e.g., Venue selection)
• 6-10 -- Detailed preference surveys (Pro plan)

The free plan allows up to 3 options, while the Pro plan supports up to 10.

Expiration Time (Pro)

With the Pro plan, আপনি পারেন set a deadline for the poll. Setting a deadline encourages quick decision-making:

Using the Memo Field

আপনি পারেন add a public memo when creating a poll. Include background context or notes to help participants make informed decisions.

Please choose somewhere near the station for Friday at 7pm."
