Troubleshooting Poll Posting Issues in Community

hiya! I posted a poll in my community moments ago and it worked like a charm, now I've tried three times to post another and it's not showing up. Any ideas?

    Interesting! Thanks for reporting Taylor d.. Let me see if I can find what’s going on. I’ll get back to you soon. Are you receiving any error messages?

    Hi Zach, thanks! No, it's just simply not showing up after I press create.

    Hey Taylor d. I haven’t been able to reproduce the error on my side. Are you able to hop on a Slack huddle? I’d love to see what’s going on with your polls. I have time for the next 50 minutes, so let me know if that works.

    And if those times do not work, Stephen C. will reach out directly as he has a little more time than I do today. Thanks Taylor

    For those following, there is a 75-character Slack limitation on each response option of the poll. Also of note: Slack will truncate the option button text after 30 characters. We are actively working on an improved experience for when options exceed this amount!

    Update: Until we roll out the improved design for long choices, we are limiting the poll choices text to a max of 30 characters each to avoid accidental Slack truncation (as of the latest release).
