This attribute can be an id for this user (name/surname, social security number ..)

Then the survey is NOT anonymous.

Bump.... Just curious why using attributes in an anonymous survey can not work. Seems to me assigned attributes for grouping or locations / departments would not reveal the survey taker easily

Like i already say : if you put specific information in token attribute, like Name-Surname, then you can add an hidden equation question type with {TOKEN:ATTRIBUTE_1} and have Name-surname in the survey.

I guess I am not being very clear here... I just want to assign two attributes Location and Evaluator Type... No name or specific identifying attribute. I then would like the survey takers to take the survey using their tokens then in the results be able to group Results by one or both of the attributes.

You are very clear : You want to use attribute in a anonymous survey.

I answer : it's not possible with an anonymous survey
You ask !: why it's not possible ?
I answer: Because you can use Name/Surname in your attribute
You answer : but, me , i don't use Name/Surname.

And my final answre is :
- LimeSurvey core can't allow you to use Token attribute in your anonymous survey , because you CAN put some personnal information in token atribute. If you want to use toen attribute in your survey : set it to not anonymous.

Thank you for the clarity. So the attributes feature is disabled in an anonymous survey. Again, thank you for your explanation I appreciate it very much.
