Why don't my Zigpoll totals change with the date range?

The Zigpoll help pages give 3 common reasons. The first to rule out: The tiles at the top always show lifetime totals, so they do not move when you pick a shorter range.

What causes it?

  1. The tiles at the top always show lifetime totals, so they do not move when you pick a shorter range.

    In the Zigpoll help: The tiles along the top of your account Dashboard and a survey's Dashboard always show lifetime totals, however you set the date range. Analytics, AI, and Reporting, read 2026-11-12.

  2. A date range set on a survey or question card changes those cards, not the lifetime tiles above them.

    In the Zigpoll help: Pick a date range on the survey card or a question card below them, and those cards switch to the range you chose. Analytics, AI, and Reporting, read 2026-11-12.

  3. The Charts page keeps its own range, so it can show a different period from the dashboard cards.

    In the Zigpoll help: The Charts page has its own date picker. Analytics, AI, and Reporting, read 2026-11-12.

How do I check it myself?

  1. Use the Charts page with the date range you care about to read that period on its own.

    In the Zigpoll help: The Charts page always computes filtered results over the full selected date range. Analytics, AI, and Reporting, read 2026-11-12.

  2. Open the survey's own participants list to see who answered that survey alone, rather than across every survey.

    In the Zigpoll help: Inside a survey, its own Participants page lists only the people who answered that survey. Participants, read 2026-11-12.

How does Zigpoll work with Feder?

  • Connect Zigpoll to Feder and it joins your Interest apps.
  • When you connect Zigpoll, Feder checks the connection straight away and shows Connected only when that check passes. If a reading cannot be taken later, Feder shows it as not read, never as zero.

Some numbers are too quiet to judge daily, such as a form filled in a few times a week. Until there is enough of your own history to judge a change, Feder says it is still learning and scores nothing, rather than guessing.

See whether you can trust the numbers in Zigpoll, one of your Interest apps. Feder only reads. It never changes anything in Zigpoll.

Where do these answers come from?

Every cause and check on this page comes from the Zigpoll help pages, quoted above with the date we read them. Last reviewed 2026-11-12. We read them again by 2027-11-12. If one changes, this page changes or comes down.

Know the day a number breaks, not the month after.
