When you say 'still', have you already opened a support topic on this?

And please try and explain things in a little more detail where possible, have you got polls enabled for the forum you are trying to use them in? For this see manage groups and forums > edit forum, then at the bottom 'enable polls for this forum'. In doing this make sure you are editing a forum not a group, as you can't enable polls for a whole group.

So to add to earlier questions, are you trying to post a poll when creating a new topic? Or are you trying to post a poll when replying? There is an option which controls this - see from admin Polls > Options > Restrict new poll creation to new topics.

Also, where exactly are you seeing the message 'polls only allowed in forum' ?

... and the exact wording of the message would help me as that text doesn't seem to appear anywhere in the code as such...
