    I’d like to use this plugin to manage elections in my organization. Is it possible to prevent users from double voting (eg. using the same poll more than one time)?

    Hello

    For elections we recommend allowing votes from registered users only.

    Is this something you plan on doing?

    Problem is: can a registered user vote two times? This is the thing I must prevent. The form is in a private area, no external user can vote

    In this case, you can limit to 1 the number of votes per registered user and it should fix the problem.

    You mentioned elections. Are you looking for anonymous voting as well?

    Ok, thanks ??

    I have the same problem with registrated users. Where can I find the option that a registrated user just voe one time?

    @arbmil you can find this option on Create/Update Poll page by going to Options -> Access tab.

    Assuming you have “Vote Permissions” set to “WordPress”, you can set “Limit number of votes per user” to “Yes” and “Votes per user” to 1.

    Hope this helps.
