# How to insert an acepolls poll into a Joomla 2.5 article

Joomla 2.5 has reached its end of life as for 12/31/2014. Please be advised this may be a security risk to your website. You can view more information about the end of life [here](https://docs.joomla.org/Joomla!_CMS_versions).

There are various ways to display acepolls polls to your users, and embedding them into an article is one of them. There is not default functionality to put a poll into an article, but there is somewhat of a work around you can do. Joomla 2.5 allows you to show a module within an article. As you can display acepolls polls with a module, you can put the acepolls module within an article.

**To add an acepolls poll within a Joomla 2.5 article:**

1. [Create a new acepolls poll](/support/edu/joomla/joomla-2-5/create-new-poll/)
2. [Create a module to display the poll](/support/edu/joomla/joomla-2-5/create-poll-module/)
3. [Use the load position feature to embed the poll into the article](/support/edu/joomla/joomla-2-5/module-in-article/)
