I have created a Poll class and have it working on it's own page, but ideally I need to have the poll embedded in the homepage. Is there a way of doing this? I've spent a while looking into this but with no success. I considered an iframe, which could work except the poll page is still using homepage template (ie menus, logos etc) and I can't work out how to stop it using this template. I have been looking at the override poll tpl files but nothing seems to be working so far! Is there a simple way to embed a poll? I notice there is a poll_embed.tpl file but I'm finding little in the way of documentation on using polls within ezpublish.

svn server seems to be down, but poll is one of the things included in next version of ezwebin.
And the embed template should be somewhere here: http://svn.ez.no/svn/extensions/ezwebin/trunk/packages/ezwebin_extension/ezextension/ezwebin/design/ezwebin/override/templates/embed/poll.tpl

So how do I use the code in that tpl? I'm very new to EZpublish I should point out! I have worked out how to use override templates for full pages, but I still don't understand how to embed the content of another object/form/article/poll/whatever into another page. Do I need to copy that tpl file into my override homepage template file?

You get embed content when you click the attachement icon while editing a xml-Block ( ~Rich text area ) and adding a existing page (in your case a poll).

You can also display the embed view of something in templates manually using this:

Thanks, yes I just realised that I was trying to add the embed code to a Text Line section instead of XML Block, which is why it kept coming out as text link instead.

*sigh* ok I am almost there. The content_view_gui, as pointed out, is obviously what I need to use, but I still cannot work out from the documentation HOW I use it. I have established that you can embed objects by referring to their NODE id if you're embedding thru the admin area. But do I still use the node id when adding content_view_gui to a template file, and if so where do I put it?
So in:
{content_view_gui content_object=object view=embed } where do I state what object it needs to add? "content_object=object"? I appreciate any help, as I'm finding the official documentation to be extremely lacking.

{* First fetch the node you want *}
{def $my_node = fetch('content', 'node', hash('node_id', NODE_ID_NUMBER_HERE))}
{content_view_gui content_object=$my_node.object view='embed'}
or
{* Fetch the object directly *}
{def $my_object = fetch('content', 'object', hash('object_id', OBJECT_ID_NUMBER_HERE))}
{content_view_gui content_object=$my_object view='embed'}
Hope this helps :)
