PHP Poll & Survey Scripts

PHP Poll & Survey Scripts for Votes, Feedback & Ratings

The PHP Poll & Survey Scripts category brings together ready-made PHP poll scripts and PHP survey systems you can drop into almost any website. Instead of hand-coding every vote, result and percentage bar, you start from tested poll and survey code with admin panels, charts and basic anti-cheat protection already built in.

If you want a quick snapshot of what other developers are running in production, check the popular PHP poll & survey scripts overview. You’ll typically see online poll scripts with live result charts, multi-question survey systems, rating widgets and opinion polls used on news sites, blogs, product pages and dashboards.

Polls and surveys show up in more places than you might expect. Common uses for the scripts in this category include:

• Simple “yes/no” or multiple-choice polls embedded in articles and sidebars.
• Quick satisfaction surveys after a support interaction or purchase.
• Star ratings and like/dislike widgets for products, posts or videos.
• Longer questionnaires for research, feedback or onboarding.
• Internal polls inside intranets and staff dashboards.

Because everything here runs on PHP, these poll and survey tools fit neatly into the wider PHP Scripts & PHP Code ecosystem. A common pattern is to capture email addresses or basic details in a survey and then pass them into a mailing or CRM workflow. For example, you might combine a survey script from this category with a newsletter panel from Newsletter Software PHP Scripts or a mailer from PHP Mail Scripts to follow up with respondents.

If you already use form builders from PHP Form Scripts & Generators , a dedicated poll or survey script can handle the parts that forms are less suited to: vote limits based on IP or cookies, one-click participation, automatic result calculations and display of percentages or charts without extra coding.

Many publishers and bloggers also use polls as engagement tools inside their content. It’s easy to embed a small PHP poll script inside news and magazine sites powered by PHP News Scripts or on top of more general blog software PHP scripts , so readers can vote on stories, predictions or opinions without leaving the page.

When you compare different poll and survey systems, it helps to look beyond the front-end design. A quick checklist:

• How are votes limited (IP, cookies, login, or a combination)?
• Can you create multiple polls or surveys and group them by campaign?
• What kind of questions are supported (single choice, multiple choice, ratings, text)?
• Are results shown as bars, percentages, charts or raw counts?
• Is there an export option (CSV/Excel) for deeper analysis?

Most products in this category offer a live demo. It’s worth taking a minute to create a test poll, vote a few times and check how the results page and admin panel feel. That experience is what editors, marketers or clients will deal with on a daily basis.

Under the hood, poll and survey scripts are usually built on familiar pieces: HTML forms, PHP processing and a database table for responses. If you plan to add custom logic later, you’ll often find it straightforward to extend these systems with your own conditions, extra fields or integrations.

Once you’ve chosen a script from the PHP Poll & Survey Scripts category, most of the work is configuration: creating your first polls, choosing colours and fonts, deciding where to display results, and wiring any optional follow-up emails or redirects. After that, the code simply keeps collecting votes and feedback in the background while you learn more about what your visitors and customers actually think.
