Hey @Sicoval31 . Poll Plus is an update over the Poll app. It includes all features provided in the Poll app in addition to a ton of new features that match current industry trends for polling. You can find more about it on Rocket.Chat's documentation for Poll Plus here.

The Poll Plus app uses an updated version of the Rocket.Chat's App Engine which requires explicit permission approval by users (unlike the Poll App which implicity uses permissions without requiring user approval owing to an older RC App Engine version). These are the minimum privliges required for the Poll Plus app to function. You can take a look at the all the permissions required here.

We are encouraging new and existing users to upgrade their polling experience on Rocket.Chat through the Poll Plus app. Let us know if you have any other questions or face any usage problems : )

The wordcloud option is for generating weighted word clouds from your responses. Please take a look at this.

Also, if your RC server has access to the public Internet, it would be able to make use of the pre-filled Quickchart wordcloud API. If not, you can make use of our open-sourced wordcloud API (also recommended to avoid rate-limiting problem with Quickchart). You can read more about this on the configuration page here.

Currently, the template modes have a fixed set of options so it is not possible to modify the 4 options (Overrated, Appropriately Rated, Never Tried, Underrated). Although this is a valuable suggestion and I've created an issue for this here. The solution would be to use translation variables instead of hard-coding the options. Please feel free to contribute.

Happy New Year to you as well. 🌟.
Please do let me know if you're still confused with any of the above.
