I am trying to make a slider question mandatory but this seems impossible:
  • indicating that is mandatory does not work
  • making the initial value 0, while indicating that the minimum value is 1 and maximum is 10 does not work

I also tried to use the regex /^[1-9]{1}$|^10$/ for validation, but then the feedback when "forgetting" will never point the user back to the forgotten question.

Is this a bug or am I overlooking some possibility.

Thanks in advance for helping...

What LimeSurvey version are you using?

I have just tested a "mandatory" slider question with version 1.90 and I am required to move the slider before advancing in the survey.

I think the problem is that you have given the sliders an initial value of 0 which effectively means that they have been answered.

Try removing the initila value and setting the minimum value to 1.

This means that they will have no value on page load but must be moved to proceed.

Great, thank you very much. I thought that by giving 0 as the initial value, while the right value goes from 1 to 10, this problem would be tackled.

By leaving the initial value out, the "mandatory thing" works now.
