Option polls with indefinite duration? about vodle HOT 1 CLOSED

Hi @makoConstruct ,
first on that "ready" bug: if that happens, please try setting the poll end date freshly, this seemed to resolve it to me. I believe otherwise the validator thinks the end date is invalid. I will look at that issue

Then, thank you for suggesting this feature. It sounds like an interesting and valid use case. For now, I think the fastest solution I could offer at this point is:

1. Let users "duplicate" ended polls. This would open the poll drafting page with the old poll's data prefilled, so that you could then remove the last option and set a new end date.

Would that help for now? If so, I guess we can include this feature in the backlog for V1.0.

It would however not copy the earlier waps, so participants would have to evaluate all options freshly. So the next step would be:

2. Offer participants in the new poll to copy their waps from the previous poll at any time during the new poll. Or even more conveniently: Offer a toggle that shows the old waps alongside the new ones, and offer a "copy" button next to each slider. And then maybe even offer an "undo" button as well...

Btw, I will turn this issue item into a discussion item until we settled on what solution we want.
