don't show widget if no active polls

    Is there a possibility to hide the whole sidebar widget if no active poll is there?

    I think it’s not possible with dynamic widgets so I switched to a static entry in my sidebar.php theme file:

    <?php if (function_exists('vote_poll') && !in_pollarchive()): ?>
<div class="widget widget_polls-widget">
    <h3>Polls</h3>
    <ul>
      <li><?php get_poll();?></li>
    </ul>
    <?php display_polls_archive_link(); ?>
  </div>
<?php endif; ?>

    How can I achieve my goal?

    You can do something like this, if it is not what you want, than I am afraid it is not possible.

    <?php if( intval( get_option( 'poll_currentpoll' ) ) !== -1): ?>
<?php if (function_exists('vote_poll') && !in_pollarchive()): ?>
<div class="widget widget_polls-widget">
    <h3>Polls</h3>
    <ul>
      <li><?php get_poll();?></li>
    </ul>
    <?php display_polls_archive_link(); ?>
  </div>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
