it seems that “votes are public” is not working. I activated the advanced option of “Show who voted”, but no way are we seeing the name of the voter…

That coz it only works on bar charts:
> **Show who voted:**
> When enabled, allows those who can view poll results to also view the specific choices of each poll user. _Bar Chart type only_

aha, and now that 2 voted, how do we know who voted and for what? (I’m almost sure I know it, but that’s cause you started this poll and then I voted ;-)) It doesn’t seem to be visible, or do I miss sth?

Hmmm - you’re right, it still doesn’t show us who voted - but I think I may have buggered up the settings! Try this one:

I noticed that we didn’t implement this bar chart type voting in our Decision template. I’m doing that now so our voting makes visible who voted what.
This is our new template:
