Ideas in development Here are the ideas about LimeSurvey that are currently being implemented for the 1.91 release.

Allow to save infos about browser, javascript, OS etc. into results

Make the infos like browser agent, javascriptversion, OS and additonal infos available in the results.

Some workarounds are not working with different browsers. E.g. you wonder why a hidden question was filled out with a invalid value (solution, very old browser wasn't hiding the question). If you have the additional infos at hand you can quickly pinpoint what might be the cause of that answer pattern.

The variables could also be made accessible for conditions.
But to save them into the results would be already a big help to give feedback about problems and weighting them in terms of how often they would occur in the field.

Selected solution (#1): A checkbox in the survey settings

Some of these information are available via the php function
get_browser(). A javascript part could also be added to get screen resolution and flash detection.

To include such infos into the results a checkbox in the surveysettings would be a good start.

Ipmrove the date question type flexibility

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).
