Hi Shawn,

When I create a page and choose Single Column no Sidebar and not the Default Template, the sidebar ghosts below the page, is that normal?

Thanks

Abe

Hi Abe,

Absolutely. 3rd party services like PollDaddy enable you to build a poll and then copy a snippet of code. Paste that code snippet into your WordPress pages or posts, wherever you’d like the poll to appear.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Hi, I’m new to WP, a quick question, is it possible to insert a Poll into a page seperate from the blog?

Thanks
Abe

Hi Sean, This type of question is probably best handled in the Q&A Board, but in brief... I would recommend setting up portfolio galleries as pages (as opposed to posts), IF your selected theme does not provide another method for handling portfolios. Many custom themes, such as those created by Graph Paper Press and WooThemes, include a separate content type for portfolios, in addition to posts and pages. These themes actually add a new menu item from which you can manage your portfolio galleries. A premium theme with support for custom portfolios will no doubt be the best way to go, but if you're stuck with a more limited theme, then yes, I would use a page for this purpose, instead of a post. Hope this helps, Shawn

Hi, I’m a photographer & am just getting started building my WP Blog/ website. My question is, when I set up my portfolio galleries, should they be set up as PAGES? SInce the content won’t change all that frequently, but it will when I want to show new work. Thanks!!
