has a big flaw

    By creating a new poll it automatically puts 0000 as start and end times unless you specify. But 0 should mean “infinite” not “never” in this case.
    Once a poll has been created it cannot be stopped, paused, or edited. It can only be deleted. Although it said “Voting is over” the backend still said it’s active and can’t be edited.

    So many plugins seem to be flawed when the author himself has given it a 5 star review first, and no other reviews.

    2 stars (not 1) because it really is easy and simple. Unfortunately I couldn’t use it like I needed. Please add the ability to stop/pause a poll, or remove the edit lock once a poll has been created.

    Putting the edit lock when the poll is started is actually logical since you should not be allowed to edit the poll data once the poll is started. They can only remove the poll. Because if author can edit poll data while the poll is active or ended they can alter the poll answers. This will effect the entire poll results ( Votes submitted by all users).

    Although in the PRO version poll end date can be edited.

    But Active/ Inactive status can be added in the poll edit page even if the poll is started.

    In the poll start date and end date I will add the validations.
