I want to create a poll in which the user is presented with a short list of items which they are then to sort in an order they choose related to the question.

After looking around for a while, I found a few good poll plugins for WordPress, but they were all of the simple radio-button/check-box variety; none of them supported this type.

Writing my own simple form is simple enough, but then I have to accommodate the data storage somehow. It would be better if I could find some sort of plugin.

So what is your question? Plugin recommendations are off topic now, it is not clear if you want to know how to solve that with own code. Please improve the question. – toscho♦ Oct 25 '12 at 5:39
I am not asking for a recommendation, I am trying to find out if any exist at all. – Synetech Oct 25 '12 at 16:10

I agree with toscho. Regardless that this is off topic by asking for plugin recommendations, I think you just need to adjust how you are making the poll, rather than what plugin you are using or how you code it. I would split the poll up into mini polls for each answer position. Example. Sorry about the link...new here, couldn't post an image.

I created this using the poll add-on for Gravity forms which I would highly recommend, but I believe you could achieve this with any kind of poll plugin that supports a drop down selection option

Blech! Thanks for the suggestion, but doing it that way is horrendous and not very user-friendly. I’d rather implement a JavaScript drag-and-drop form myself. – Synetech Oct 25 '12 at 16:20
