I think that clearly the future of LimeSurvey will necessitate a Wordpress plugin to allow for easy integration. Right now, though, I'm trying to figure out how to link the two manually.

I want to only allow registered users on the WP site to be able to access my survey, and only take it once. Can anyone give me a basic idea of how I would link the user profiles from the Wordpress wp-users table with the Tokens and/or user database for LimeSurvey? Is this a realistically possible goal?

Doesn't that mean, that the users of your Wordpress site should be able to take the surveys?

If you read further (and I've tried this out), it says "Make your surveys public (in LimeSurvey!) so that users can see and take them directly through there dashboard in WordPress."

The surveys are required to be public for users to take them...which makes this pretty much useless.
If only there was a way to have them be private and still get this to work, it would be an indispensable plugin.

holch OFFLINE LimeSurvey Team Posts: 1973 Thank you received: 156 Karma: 80	OK, I've read further, but I didn't interpret that passage this way. I doubt that besides keeping the user databases synced somehow, there is no way at the moment to do this then.

Hello,

I think the problem is that it matches the Wordpress users with the LimeSurvey users and not with the participants in the token table. I had a look at the source code of this plugin (plugins.svn.wordpress.org/surveypress/trunk/ , file survey-press.php) and found

"SELECT * FROM ".$db_value_prefix."users WHERE users_name = %s AND password = %s", $username, $pwd

in it, there is nothing for communicating with a token table.

The problem might be that users in LimeSurvey are global while participant settings are defined in the token table of the specific survey.

Perhaps we can customize this plugin to do as we want.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen/Best regards,

Stefan Gohlke

holch OFFLINE LimeSurvey Team Posts: 1973 Thank you received: 156 Karma: 80	Maybe when the central participant database is implemented, then it might be worth a look to adapt the plugin to that. I guess it would be a lot easier, though I don't know how exactly tokens are stored at the moment. Is there a table with tokens for each survey?
