Priority : Mid After a poll is answered, and the data chart is being shown, include a button "Copy Link and Share on Social Media!" When they click it, copy a link to the jpeg showing the data chart with WePoll branding, that is easily formatted for sharing on FB, IG, TW, SC, etc

Challenge Level: 7?? Haven't done something like this before, so it'd take a lot of research, but it might not be hard? I can look into it soon.

It probably wouldn't be a 'copy link' and more of just a button that asked for permissions, etc. Similar to what you see on other websites. Usually you're not copying a link, but you'd click on the poll and it'd take you to the site. A hiccup I could see is that the answer graphs are behind the log-in wall, so it'd be difficult to share that particular graph and have someone be able to link to it, without them already having an account. I'm not sure the viability of sharing something behind an authentication wall to social media. I get the idea, though. It'd start out as "I just answered Question X on wepoll, come speak your mind" or similar, and then would evolve into a more complex feature

This feature isn't hard to implement at a basic level, connecting a twitter feed, facebook like and recommend buttons are easy, the issue comes with you want to do it on every question, and how links work through different systems.
