Surveyors should approve their answers  
Written by lwc the 17 Nov 10 at 19:35. Related project: 1.x all. New
It's frustrating for everyone involved when surveyors detect wrong answers in their post-submit "print answers" link, only to realize by then it's too late.

Such a feature would create more reliable and more user friendly surveys.

See more details in http://www.limesurvey.org/support/forums/20/52495

Solution #1: Force surveyors to approve their answers
Written by lwc the 17 Nov 10 at 19:35.
Give the users a summary of all their answers, and force them to approve it in order to submit the survey.

Of course, make it an on/off option so each admin could decide whethere to force it or not.

Solution #2: INSERTQUESTION Replacement Field Code
Written by andrewteg the 19 May 11 at 17:21.
Much like you have INSERTANS, I propose an INSERTQUESTION replacement field. Then you can at least setup a dynamic Question and Answer review page using a boilerplate field. This is not as convenient as a full review question page/type option, but would allow someone to setup a review page without having to retype the question text.

A quick button to spit out all of them would be pretty great too.

Advanced reporting for assessments  
Written by tiprichard the 25 Sep 09 at 17:17. Related project: 2.x all. New
For assessments we need statistics about howmany people passed the assessment. (like an exam)
For auditing purposes we need reports how many points are scored per group as percentage of the total possible points. If possible shown in a spiderweb graph, where each group equals one line of the web.

Solution #2: Use Red-R for advance reporting
Written by Rashelinu the 7 Dec 10 at 19:55.
There is an open source application used to do data analysing of results and making charts from it. This application is Red-R (http://www.red-r.org). Will this help you with what you need to do?

Solution #3: BIRT or JasperReport
Written by najlamif the 6 Apr 11 at 08:54.
As with Solution 1, I would like to propose either BIRT or Jasper Reports - I've used both recently in my PHP projects, and they bring a world of a difference to reporting - taking the design aspects and business logic out of the application and moving them to the reporting layer. Also, the various exports are handled as well

Choose bar chart instead of pie chart when you want to  
Written by onderzoekspraktijk the 19 Nov 09 at 23:49. Related project: 1.x all. Implemented
Any question that totals to 100% gets a graphic representation in the form of a pie chart.
I tried to change the code to make it possible to choose a bar chart instead.
I did this because the pie chart is terrible to intepret when it depicts more than 3 variables. It sure looks nice, but it does not convey information in a nice manner: it flabbergasts.
(This link tells it much better than I ever could:http://www.perceptualedge.com/articles/08-21-07.pdf)

Selected solution (#1): chart chooser parameter in the survey fields on top of each survey
Written by onderzoekspraktijk the 19 Nov 09 at 23:49.
Of-course more importantly it needs some coding of the used software. I tried it but it is beyond me.

it should be possible to turn on/off the note about privacy  
Written by pmonstad the 3 Sep 10 at 23:45. Related project: 1.x all. New
The privacy note is too eye catching and should either have the possibility to be turned on/off or the possibility to change style from css.

There is as far as I can see, no css style for the privacy note making it hard to put to text in smaller size.

Solution #2: Turn off anonymous submissions
Written by dvickers79 the 1 Oct 10 at 20:39.
The only way that I've found to remove it is to turn off anonymous submissions, as this is what the privacy message is referring to...anonymity.

Ipmrove the date question type flexibility  
Written by Luke the 31 Aug 10 at 16:10. Related project: 1.x all. In development
In many surveys what I needed to collect was year only or a year/month combination. Of course I could create custom combox but using a predefined question type is always easier.

Selected solution (#1): Add 3 checkboxes to the date question type settings
Written by Luke the 31 Aug 10 at 16:10.
e.g.:

- show days
- show months
- show years

That way people could select what bits of data they want to colect (day/month or month/year only).

This would apply only when the user chose to display the date as dropdowns (not using the calendar).
