Solution #1: Split file and select cases
Written by granen the 15 Mar 11 at 10:58.
Add the possibility to choose a question you would like to split the data on and add the possibility to select cases the same way as you create rules in the survey.

"lottery" for LimeSurvey  
Written by vierundzwanzig the 4 Nov 11 at 09:58. Global category: Statistics. New
use case

The creator of a survey should be able to include a lottery into the survey. The participant will leave his/her e-mail address for participation in the lottery. In the admin tool it should be possible to see how many people have participated in the lottery and randomly select a number of e-mail addresses for the winners.

requirements

- If the participant takes part in the survey no conclusions about the participant should be possible. For example if the e-mail address is stored in the same survey database table or the sessionID and timestamp of the participation of the survey and lottery are stored in both of the two separate tables.
- The lottery should be part of a survey. It should not be a link to a new/additional survey (with navigation and "submit" button).
- The selection of winners should be done automatically by the LimeSurvey admin tool.

Solution #1: new question type "lottery-email"
Written by vierundzwanzig the 4 Nov 11 at 09:58.
A new question type "lottery email" is to be created. This type will be used as a free text field for entering the e-mail address. Writing to the database is done in a separate table like "lime_win_SID" without the SessionID or timestamp being stored in this table to ensure that no conclusions about the participants of the survey can be drawn.
In the area "responses & statistics"/"statistics" there should be a new textbox and a button to specify a number of winners. The winners are determined via random-number generator from the answers of the question with the type "lottery email". The winners are then shown on the page.

Solution #2: integrate a new single page survey
Written by vierundzwanzig the 4 Nov 11 at 09:59.
For the lottery and the actual survey two separate surveys will be created by the same creator. The question group with the e-mail address from the lottery survey will then be integrated in the actual survey with a new feature (a new drop-down box to display another survey of the creator. The question group should also be used in the selected survey). The e-mail address is stored in the database table of the lottery survey.
In the area "responses & statistics"/"statistics" there should be a new textbox and a button to specify a number of winners. The winners are determined via random-number generator from the answers of the question with the type "lottery email". The winners are then shown on the page.

I want to know the running time of a survey  
Written by Eddie_V the 21 Apr 11 at 13:16. Global category: Statistics. New
into the lime_surveys table there is a field datecreated when the survey was created. What I would like to know about a survey is when it was activated. this to create statistics about how long the surveys are running(or have ran) on our system.

ofcourse to determin how long a survey has ran there would also be a need for DateLastDeactivated.

It would be nice to show the running time of a survey on the current statistics pages. And as in our case those fields could be used for custom statistics about all the surveys that are currently running on the system.

Solution #1: Add DateLastActivated into Lime_surveys table
Written by Eddie_V the 21 Apr 11 at 13:16.
and maybe a field DateLastDeactivated. where the date is stored the survey was last activated and deactivated altho, you can retrieve this from the timestamp given to the lime_old_surveys_% tables.

the complaint of filter stats sets  
Written by darknico84 the 4 Nov 10 at 10:04. Related project: 1.x all. New
In some situation where you have to "replay" many times the same filters sets on various surveys (but with same question set) it can be very long and bothering to click each time on hundreds of filter sets.

Solution #1: Creating macros for stats filters
Written by darknico84 the 4 Nov 10 at 10:04.
It might be very convenient to be able to re-use a specified filter set without having to choose everything, item by item, each time.
That's why, it could be nice to be able to save your filter settings, to load them back when required and eventually to copy these sets from a survey to another.

Thanks :)

Add Question ID to results tables.  
Written by holch the 9 May 12 at 17:14. Global category: Statistics. New
When browsing the responses the header of the column consists of the question text. This not only creates a huge row (which luckily is adapted by LS already), but the first few words of a question can be often very similiar, which makes it very difficult to find the right row.

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.

Solution #1: Add question ID to the response table and the response filters screen
Written by holch the 9 May 12 at 17:14.
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.

Real-time access to and analysis of results  
Written by richard the 15 Nov 11 at 10:47. Global category: Statistics. New
I run many surveys for many different companies on a Limesurvey account. What I would like to be able to offer them is:

real-time access to their survey results displayed in a dynamic interface, like a proper reporting tool. This would complete the delivery from Limesurvey, from start/invitations, through the survey runtime all the way to reporting the results.

usage of colours in pie-charts  
Written by Biggi the 2 Dec 09 at 08:34. Related project: 1.x all. New
Hi,

it would be helpful for comparability of the statistical graphs by using consequently the same colour for first, second, third … answer even if there is no answer given on one choice. For example there are some questions of type 5 point choice array. On one question nobody gives the answer “1”. Now you look at your graphs of the statistic and in all pie-charts you see blue=”1”, red=”2”, green=”3”, yellow=”4” and olive=”5” only in the one, where no one selected the first choice “1” blue stands for “2”, red for “3” and so on. To compare the charts it would be better to skip the colour where the statistical answers are null.

Solution #1: use consequently same colours in pie-charts
Written by Biggi the 2 Dec 09 at 08:34.
Like I mentioned above it would be helpful to have always the same colours for the first, second ... answer in the pie-charts and to skip the colour where the statistical answers are null.

Google Feedback loop ( recieving automatic unsubscribe updates).  
Written by ziminajus the 10 Feb 12 at 15:22. Global category: Statistics. New
We are organizing periodic surveys and we would like to make sure that we dont send invitations to people who dont like to recieve them (even if we go through double opt-in process some users after sometime get bored of surveys and instead of unsubscribing start marking emails as spam). So to indentify such users and drop them from the mailing list we would like to subscribe to \'feedback loop\' information from google.

Google provide a possibitlity to recieve such feedback but an additional hearder( List-Unsubscribe header) should be sent in a email.

An additional header information should be send with all email invitations/reminders.

The same feature can work with many mailing systems thus enabling to recieve feedback from many survey participants.

More information about the technical aspects:
