There is a work a workaround for this but it is hideously complex and a dead end for non-programmers.

http://docs.limesurvey.org/tiki-index.php?page=Workarounds:+Question+design,+la yout+and+templating#Multiple_question_types_in_array

This type of question is critical for many of our research surveys and invalidates LimeSurvey as an option.

Implementation of the workaround in a user friendly fashion would place LimeSurvey as one of the very few online survey systems that offer this feature (only one survey system out of just over twenty investigated so far).

Solution #1: Positional information in each question
Written by neoporcupine the 30 Jul 10 at 02:36.
SurveyMonkey has positional information for each question to wit:
Place on new row (default)
Place on same row as previous question

Additionally you would require line height options, display heading, display row labels, and possibly column width. (thinking arrays next to each other as well as single fields)

The downside to this is the tab order is column based; a small price to pay to allow this feature.

It would be most wonderful, if one could provide the invitations with a date and/or timestamp in order to define the earliest date/time of posting them to the invited person.

Data Import / Data Handling

Currently the data import isn't very flexible. The possibility to import data from a ldap data source is basically a good idea but does not fit my needs exactly.

In case of recurring surveys every week it would be a great help if LimeSurvey would provide the possibility of a full data management solution instead of just using tokens from a csv or ldap import.

Solution #1: Real Data-Management Support
Written by Morpheus the 27 Jul 10 at 12:34.
Great would be if the user could pick an ole-db provider to connect the dbms of his choice.

When the dbms is chosen LimeSurvey would have to provide campaigns which should be subdivided into different data groups (e.g. data group A represent people of zipcode 1, data group B represent people of zipcode 2 and so on).

Within one data group you can limit the data amount by just selecting specific records with a sql command of the specified data source

Each data group should be limited to a specific response quote for a specific question.

Customer Groups

We use limesurvey for our customer surveys and it works really well, but there is one feature missing:

customer groups. We do have different customer groups and therefore it would be really nice to be able to compare the survey results of each customer group.

Solution #1: customer field
Written by tobib the 27 Jul 10 at 08:54.
Maybe there's a way to add a custom field while setting up the tokens and assign every imported customer his/her group e.g. "A", "B" or "C". When the customer completed the survey the group is saved with the results in the database.
