Hello,

we use your program in our company. We are working on a project and need some assistance with a specific question type.

We use an array(Yes/No). But we need behind of each column (labels table) a text box, in order to make some notes, or to justify each answer wether "yes" or "no".

Is it possible that you create such a question type for us?

Cheers

Example:

What brands have you tried?
- Brand c
- None of these

Often you want to let others review your work or you want to leave messages for yourself or others close to the questions that you work on.

Now you have to keep notes in a different document and that document is not necessarily updated.

Hi, I think it will be useful to have the possibility to change the label for the "non mandatory" option.

i.e.
Which party will you vote next sunday?

2 Party 2
3 Party 3
1 Party 1
...
10 Party 10
(in random order)

11 Don't vote/Don't know/Don't answer
(this is the "non mandatory" option with a changed label)

Surveys can be incomplete for basically two reasons.
- The responder saved the survey for later completion
- The responder simply left the survey without finishing it.

The first can be displayed from the primary survey tool bar, the second can only be found by looking through all the surveys for those not yet completed but this also shows those saved for later completion.

When creating a new question limesurvey should prefill the code field of the question with 0001 or any other scheme.

Speeds up entering questions if you afterwards regenerate the codes.

In an Array, like in the multiple choice question, is of vital interest to have the possibility of others answer options further the fixed answer options...
So can the person that give the answer:
1) insert free text in the option "other"
2) give an evaluation based on the defined label set

We have the policy for important surveys, that you can skip each question with an Bullshit! option, meaning the question is manipulative or the answer possibilities to not allow to express a neutral oppinion. It is like the "No Answer" option.

The problem is, I can use the Bullshit options in some answer types with no problems as an additional option (lists), but in some Answer types it is really hard to do (think Ranking or Numeric Input).

Since the statistics are also affected, and it would be good to set a condition on this (show reason input textfield if any question was answered with Bullshit) and since I like to display a "use with caution" reminder it is good to have this as an globbal extra attribute to each answer type.

Sometimes we want to use limesurvey as a quiz/exam tool.
Participants should only have a specific time to fill this quiz (e.g. 15 Minutes).

the current way how to save any text changes in a question should be modified.
Now I need to save the modification when I exit the text editor and a second klick is reuqired to confirm modification of the question. If I do not the second klick all modifications get lost.

Currently the array headers will repeat according to a global setting. It would be helpful if needed that the global setting could be overridden for a advanced setting on the question itself. If nothing is entered on the question it will go by the default.

Sometimes I have a numeric range question that currently has to be implemented as 2 question (or rather, 2 subquestions).

Some questions you might want to use in different questionnaires. e.g. some standardized questions for socio-demographics, etc.

It should be easy to save questions in a kind of library, from where you can easily implement them to a new questionnaire.

Question type similar to a DualScale question type.

Difference is that you that you are not allowed to choose the same item on both scales.

Simple example would be : First scale "most important", second scale "least important". Now you show different items to choose from. With a dual scale question type it would be possible to choose the same item as "most important" AND "least important" which wouldn't allow to apply the MaxDiff method.

Often I find that the standard error message is to generic for a specific question I am asking. As an example I am right now asking for the respondents email adress, using a short text field with a simple reg-ex validator.

I don't want to show an elaborate "help" message as default because 90% will just write their email (or not). But if somebody writes e.g. "myname @gmail.com", the reg-ex kicks in an an error pops out. The standard error is something like "Please answer all questions correctly". But in this case, the respondent might be confused because he thinks he answered correctly. It was by accident that he put in an extra whitespace. in "myname @gmail.com".

In response to suggestions regarding my forum post #33698, I am requesting the following feature:

I would like to see an attribute for the short free text question type textbox for entering a password. Instead of seeing the password, the user would see a character such as a "dot" or an asterisk.

Thank you!

When we are dealing with array-type questions that have many subquestions (long Likert-type scales), it would be a good idea to group the subquestions into logical categories (e.g. if it is a scale about satisfaction with job with 20 subquestions, the first five are about the payment, the next five are about job conditions, the next four are about relationships etc), and these categories' titles should be visible to the respondent as a row between the groups of subquestions. The survey designer may also want to use breaks instead of titles to separate these groups of subquestions of the same array question. This solution would improve the look and maybe even validity of scales with many subquestions, since the respondent would be able to mentally group these subquestions, and they would not seem so many when grouped.

The base idea is that a question should behave the same way hidden or shown.
the only thing to change should be the show/not show question for the end user.

- Javascript/jquery in a hidden question should work
- conditions should apply to the hidden question to (ie the question is either hidden, or not asked)

I'm not sure i made it very clear, i try reformulate:

the only distinction between a hidden question (always hide this question) and a "nomal" question should be the screen display.

I tried using a dual scale array using mandatory question = no
"rating" | "trend" | "no answer"
The problem is that people can select something from "rating" without selecting a "trend". If I use mandatory question = yes than the participant has to answer this question.

Examples:
"rating" | "trend" | "no answer"
3 | up |" " (something from both arrays was selected)
1| " "|" " (only something from first array was selected)
" "| up |" " (only something from second array was selected)

So it would be nice to have some advanded options for specifaing what is mandatory for the dual scale array.
