When browsing the responses the header of the column consists of the question text. This not only creates a huge row (which luckily is adapted by LS already), but the first few words of a question can be often very similiar, which makes it very difficult to find the right row.

It should be relatively easy to add a row above which contains the question code, which would make it a lot easier to identify the respective row.

Additionally, in the screen to limit de responses for the statistics, there is only shown the question text and not the question ID. With big surveys it would be so much easier to search via the question ID.

At the moment the survey is either on or off. It would be great if there would be the possibility to give a survey different statuses like "open/online", "paused", "finished", etc.

The admin could mark the current status and respondents would receive different messages when opening the link like the survey itself in case of "online" and something like "The survey is currently paused/not active, please come back later" and "This survey has been closed, as we have reached the necessary amount of participants".

Respond multiple times using the same computer

The actual functionnality is implemented as:
"With this workaround it will be possible to respond multiple times to the same survey. Normally there will be a message saying that the computer already received the answers. To prevent this you have to add the following code to the URL that leads to the survey "&newtest=Y"."

In case we hire an employee who will call 50 customers and will enter all answers into the survey, the employee will have to write 50 times the "&newtest=Y" into the address bar and remember the current number Y for each call. This can be quite complicated for some unexperimented users.

We wants the employees to have invitation because we want to retrace the number of customers each employee call.

I was thinking about this quite a while already. It is not always possible to do a interview online (CAWI) or via telephone (CATI). When programming is necessary CAPI comes into the game.

However, most CAPI-Tools are old and boring and additionally you have to have still another program.

However, wouldn't it be greate to be able to use Limesurvey for all those purposes. However, even with UMTS/3G it is not always possible or reliable enough to do it with a online survey tool.

Some surveys can be very complex.

For my last survey, I had a committee deciding the groups and questions. We used FreeMind to come up with our structure.
