0-10 choice was created by bobbux
Please help us help you and fill where relevant:
Your LimeSurvey version: [any]
Own server or LimeSurvey hosting: own
Survey theme/template:
==================
LimeSurvey has both 5- and 10- point Choice (array) type questions. I really need a 0-10 (11 point choice) question type. Is there some way for me to do this using LimeSurvey?
The main point is that 0-10 has the value 5 at the middle. Some people/audiences will be more comfortable answering that range (rather than 1-10 which lacks a middle point). Less important, the upper and lower halves of the scale also have a middle, which is not the case for 1-9 scale.

5- and 10-Point Array do what they say, they offer 5 and 10 points. However, there is also the "normal" array, where you decide the scale. 5 and 10 point array are basically just specific predefined array type questions. I never use them, even if I have a scale of 5 or 10 points.
As Joffm, I would recommend to have a read at least through the manual pages about question types, as it will give you a good idea of what questions are available and what settings they have.
Because some "question types" in Limesurvey are actually hidden as a setting of another question type. Sometimes it is more obvious, sometimes it is less obvious.

Hi. I read the manual.
Yes, Limesurvey has 5 and 10 choice options. The question type is fine - it's just the detail that I'd like to use a tad differently.
I need a 0-10 (11 point) option. I cannot find how to do that anywhere in the manual.

Thanks. I have tried reading the manual.
It mentions 5 and 10 point choice question types - but not a 0-10 (11 point) option. Nor can I see what I might do to create one.

Just use the array question type and create your 0 - 10 scale.
manual.limesurvey.org/Question_type_-_Array
Read it. Try it.
