Run simple web and e-mail based petitions through WordPress.

== Description ==

The plugin allows you to run a petition through your WordPress installation. The petition appears on a page or post in WordPress. Upon submitting their details the user is sent an e-mail, prompting them to confirm their signature. The may can leave an optional comment if required. Details of signatories can be exported when the petition is complete.

== Installation ==

1. Download and unzip the plugin. Upload the unzipped folder to the wp-contents/plugins folder of your WordPress installation.
2. Enable the plugin from the WordPress Plugins administration page.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= How do I use the plugin? =

1. Petitions can be added and removed on the "Add/Delete Petitions" page in the Settings administration page (Options prior to 2.5).
2. Settings for individual petitions can be changed on the adjacent "Petition Options" page. The settings should be self explanatory.
3. When setting the confirmation e-mail text, placing [[curl]] within the text will insert the confirmation URL at that point in the text. Failure to place the URL within the text will result in a useless confirmation e-mail.
4. Within the post or page where you wish the petition to appear, insert [[petition-n]] where n is the number of the petition. The petition will not appear until you enable the petition on the options page.

= How can I manage the petition data? =

The data gathered by the petition can be managed from the "Petition"
page under Manage.

* The entire petition can be wiped using the button on the upper right of the page.
* Individual signatures can be deleted or manually confirmed from within the table.
