I've been mostly out of commission for a few months and today came to realise that the UCP migration killed all the old polls. Is there any way to get the old responses back, or are they gone for good? If I understand correctly the ArchivePoll script only would have worked before the migration happened.

I believe the database itself may still exist somewhere. Ask Fandom staff if there is a way you can get it in any format that can be proccessed.

Thank you, sent the question to them!
Please let us know what they say. I am curious to know if this is possible. I asked for something similar for legacy discussion features and they said they couldn't do it.
Also, please note that while you might be able to retrieve the old results, you will not be able to re-create the polls and pre-fill them with the old results.

They'll check, but said it might take a while due the holidays.
And yes, I figured a static listing would be the best that I can hope for, but it's okay. It's a monthly poll so most answers have come from the featured month anyway. Would be pity to lose years of answers even they aren't about anything particularly important, though. I haven't decided yet if I'll break the monthly poll tradition here, or switch to use the new Discussion polls for that from now on.
Would you mind letting us know what the result is when they get back with the final answer?

I'll try to remember :)
What do you think?
