==================
Hello,
I'm preparing a survey in which respondents will receive random ideas and should respond to these ideas with a single click on a bootstrap button. The ideas are inserted as random questions in one question group and users are expected to respond to as many as they wish.

I have created a template and exported it to CSV where I have added the HTML text of the questions (i.e. ideas to be evaluated). When I upload the CSV as a new survey all bootstrap buttons are changed to radio lists, because both answer types have the same code in the CSV table ("L").

There are 1300 questions (randomly displayed ideas to be evaluated) making it impractical to change them all manually to bootstrap buttons. Is there a way to change all radio lists to bootstrap buttons in bulk?
How can I upload the questionaire CSV in a way that all answers options are displayed as bootstrap buttons and not as radio lists?


 

Hi,
as you saw, it is not (not yet?) possible in the *.txt file to switch to bootstrap buttons.

A chance may be to investigate the lss file.
Just create a small survey with two questions, one as bootstrap buttons, one as list(radio), export and compare.
Mabe you can do a simple "search and replace".
lss ist a simple text file. You can open in any editor (notepad++, o.ä.)

1300 questions seem to be a lot.
I am rather sure that the LimeSurvey hosted installation uses the InnoDB engine of MySQL.
But this only allows 1000 columns.
See the manual.

To be sure, try to activate your survey.
