Enable to vote users with a role #101

I would like to enable to vote to the registered users with a certain role. Example: non all registered users, only authors can vote. Is that possible? Thanks

Sorry the feature doesn’t exist in the plugin. Feel free to fork the plugin and modify it to suit your needs.

This should be possible to do with some changes. I managed to make the polls only allow signed in users to view the questions and submit answers. You would need to add an extra check for the current users role when rendering the form.

https://kellenmace.com/get-current-users-role-in-wordpress/ has a good example of grabbing the user role.
