Drupal integration  
Written by marcvangend the 5 Mar 10 at 12:20. Related project: 2.x all. New
Drupal is one of the most popular open source CMS'es, but it's not geared towards complex surveys. I think that both Drupal and Limesurvey would benefit from a Drupal-Limesurvey integration module.

Solution #1: Drupal / Limesurvey modules
Written by marcvangend the 5 Mar 10 at 12:20.
Some research needs to be done to decide what should be integrated and how that can be accomplished. I think the most important is to synchronize or share the users:
- from Limesurvey, Drupal users could be invited to fill out a survey;
- users of a Drupal site could fill out (and create?) surveys without logging in again (single sign on);
- a logged-in user could see in Drupal which surveys are available for him.

At least, a Drupal module would be needed. Depending on the architecture and API's of Limesurvey2, a module/mod/plugin/addon for Limesurvey might be needed as well.

Guide a respondent towards his/her saved questionnaire  
Written by leonievanrijn the 15 Feb 10 at 09:25. Related project: 1.x all. New
In many surveys in organisations, it's considered important that each respondent only replies once. Therefor, you use a token in order to allow each respondent to fill in a survey only once. However, it is now possible for a respondent who has saved his/her form, to start a second. The record created by the first, unfinished form is not removed from the database. As it is an anonymous survey, it's not possible to identify this record. If you want to guarantee the uniqueness of each respondent, there is no other option but to throw away all unfinished records, in which case you also remove records of respondents who had other reasons for not finishing the survey.

Solution #1: Cookie placed when saving a form
Written by leonievanrijn the 15 Feb 10 at 09:25.
The proposed change: place a cookie when saving a form. The cookie blocks the possibility to open a second form and informs the respondent that he/she should open the link in the received email.

Ofcourse cookies can be removed if you really want to fill in a second form, but at least it will bring awareness to those who forgot they saved the form.

Redirecting a respondent to the saved form is also important because it makes the tool appear more reliable.
