http://ideas.limesurvey.org/ideatorrent en-us Wed, 16 May 2012 16:50:48 +0200 Wed, 16 May 2012 16:50:48 +0200 QAPoll module http://ideas.limesurvey.org/ideatorrent/idea/407/ Since LS can be used for far more things than surveys such as forms.

How about adding the use of Paypal into LS. i.e. say you are filling out a form to purchase something.

Just a thought since I will be having a client that will be having 20 different music classes that he wants people to sign up for and pay. I was thinking why not use LS for that.

[0 votes] Solution #1: Paypal option somewhere in LS
You could possibly have it as a question type or group.

Apart from mnemonic benefits, I guess there might be other advantages...

[0 votes] Solution #1: Group codes as namespaces
Say we have two groups and one question for both

Groups := me:'about me', you:'about you'
Question := rank:'rank that and this':array[1-5]:
that:'foo bar',
this:'baz quux'

then, answers would be unequivocally referenced as

me.rank.that
me.rank.this
you.rank.that
you.rank.this

and comparisons would be straightforward.

I just started using the Equation feature in v1.92. That's a pretty handy mechanism, though I find it a bit tricky to write a complex equation as the needed question codes are *not* visible in the equation page being prepared. That forces me to jump repeatedly from one group to another (possibly in different browser tabs) looking for the right codes. So I propose...

p.s. Maybe the global category I selected is wrong; it should be something like "Layout"

[0 votes] Solution #1: Side bar showing a survey structure's synopsis
Having a side bar showing all question groups and codes as a collapsible tree: there, one could just expand a branch and select+copy the relevant codes.

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.

[0 votes] Solution #1: Add question ID to the response table and the response filters screen
A. Add a row to the top of the response table with the question ID. Just above the question text should be fine. I think this is better than to include it in the same cell.

B. Add the question ID in front of the question text in 'limit responses' screen.

For example the screenshot example in the limesurvey documentation at
http://docs.limesurvey.org/Statistics&structure=English+Instructions+for+LimeSurvey
The count will be 6 as indicated by the filter, but would change for multi answer questions.

Also this feature should include the ability to remove the
No answer and the Non Completed rows, without having to filter the questions answers (it could be a global check box "Do not include No answer or Non Completed")



[0 votes] Solution #1: Add total row
sum the count column and show in the row after non completed(as per example above)
Non Completed and No answer should be able to be globally removed.

What data is being collected, and how it is to be used may vary significantly between different surveys and each one needs a properly crafted Privacy Notice (certainly for compliance with the UK's DPA).

Put into Template Category but that was the best I could find. Really General Settings

[1 votes] Solution #1: Make the Privacy Notice Placeholder a text field
My knowledge of the system is a bit thin, but the Placeholder is already there so could the Privacy Notice text be included as one of the Text Elements that can be edited within each survey?

Else include a new text element (like the welcome message) that can be edited to suit each survey. Possibly allow a 'default' notice as an alternative?

This would also provide for more real estate to clearly explain to the registrant what their next steps are.

[0 votes] Solution #1: Customizable text during survey setup/edit or registration completion template
1. Similar to how we can currently specify the Welcome message for a survey, it would be great to be able to specify the Registration Completion message, and for that matter also the actual registration capture screen. At least the latter has a template that can be customized so there is a workaround.

2. Alternatively, register.php could invoke a custom template for the registration completion possibly with replaceable text tokens.

So in the last subquestion i manually added an inputbox to let the user write on it but i dont know how to save that answer in statistics.

I got a problem with this design, as this question is mandatory the user is forced to add a custom subquestion to rate. i solve that problem creating two questions, one with main rating list and the other one with the custom option no mandatory in the same group like this.

To see how the emails will look like and how the survey will eventually look like we have to make fake tokens and make a fake run for the survey. After this, we have to delete fake tokens and create the actual token table. This process is time consuming and redundant.

See the forum discussion for this issue:

http://www.limesurvey.org/en/forum/can-i-do-this-with-limesurvey/75408-testing-the-email-templates

[0 votes] Solution #1: Testing the Email templates and the Survey with TEST_TOKEN
I suggest the "Test Run Function" which is very easily implementable.

1. Include TEST_TOKEN in the system. Assessment and Data Export should have the radio button "Exclude Test Tokens" set to "checked" as default value.

2. Include one text box under each email template (invitation, reminder, etc.) for writing email address(es) independent from token tables etc.

3. Include one button right to the new text box captioned as "Test this email template."

That's all.

You prepare your email template and write one of your own email addresses to the new text box and click the new button.

Open your email readers and see how email templates (invitation, reminder, etc.) will look like in the inbox and see if there is a problem with certain email readers.

Click on the URL which has TEST_TOKEN.

If you wish, take the survey.

Moreover, if you wish, go to assessment and see your data by setting the new radio button to "Only Test Tokens."

But sometimes I want a listing by that same criteria, not a summary report.

[0 votes] Solution #1: Add a "Show Responses" button to the Chart Tool
I think the easiest way to integrate this would be to add a "Show Responses" to the bottom of the statistic page, and instead of running the summary reports, the user would go to the "Display Results Page", with an indication what what filter was set.

Right now, the only filter that "Display Responses" supports is "Complete/Incomplete/All", this would allow searching by criteria specific to the survey, e.g. a report of everyone who answered "yes" to the question "Would you like one of our salespeople to contact you?"

Alternatively, the filtering UI used for statistics could be added to the top of the Display Responses page.

Additionally, the administrator who adds the user should have the option of setting the password at the same time. 99% of users don't care about security, they just want to get in easily. Yes, the admin can change the user password now, but it requires several clicks to do so, and it happens AFTER the login email is sent to the user.

[0 votes] Solution #1: Add the password field to Create User
The easiest solution is to add a password field when creating a user, and if it's blank then use a system password.

Not sure how complicated it is to add a Change Password option to My Account, but that would be another spot to change it.

I thought an older version of LS had this, but the newest version makes it really hard to change passwords. Recently I did a training where people got their passwords via there cell phones, and logging into the system was slow because they couldn't cut and paste.

How to have the code of the question or the title of the item instead of the headings above.
