I can't seem to get it to show up on my page. Can someone tell me what I need to do? *sobs*
First you have to make sure that poll block is initialized under Admin > Blocks and then set to active. You may also have to add it to variables.php if your skins have them. Then, you need to add the variable to your skins. The variables are, off memory, {poll_title} and {poll_content}, but the readme in the poll block folder should tell you the details.
Thanks, Lyndsie, I intialised the block already. I've just been having difficulty getting the block to show up correctly. But I'd not considered the variables. I'll mess about with that and let you know if I need further help! *beams at Lyndsie*
I am probably being completely blind, but...
I did as you suggested, Lyndsie, and the poll now shows up, however where does the admin enter the poll information? I checked the admin area and there is not an option for editing the poll.
Go to Admin, then Blocks. Then click the Options in the Poll row. That's where you can manage polls.
Ah! Thanks again!
FYI I've just added a bit of a guide to polls in the wiki for future reference:

BRILLIANT! I got it working now!
