I am creating a story map to display the status of water supply tanks for a community in Jamaica. I have a web map with point locations of each tank and I'd like to allow users to leave comments under each one. It doesn't seem like the functionality for leaving comments is available in Story Maps or in Web Maps unless I am not able to find it. Is there a way to allow users to leave comments? I've looked at the "crowdsoucred" template but I want users to leave comments under already existing points, not have a point created for each comment.  

Thanks for your help!

Hi Brian,

Have a look at the Crowdsource Polling app: Crowdsource Polling | ArcGIS for Local Government .  You could create one of these and embed in a Story Map.

Thanks! It looks like that will be a good option. But now I have a follow up question. 

I imported my web map with two point file feature layers and I see under the options tab I need to select a "polling feature layer". But this is greyed out and I cannot select anything.

I am not actually very familiar with that app, you may have better luck asking here: https://community.esri.com/community/gis/web-gis/arcgisonline
