Hi!

We have an issue with our LimeSurvey.
After a guest comes into our page and chooses his survey to take. He will need to register providing us with his: Name, Last Name and email account, then he needs to go into his email and open the survey through a link he got there.

That is the exact issue... We don't want that to happen, we want them to be able to acces to the survey without that email confirmation send process.


We use LimeSurvey Version 3.17.5+190604.

Is that even possible?

Hi,

Yes, it is possible.
You can do it with a plugin.

I had it done before not using a registration form but using a registration survey. After submitting the first response, a plugin creates a token on the second surveys and redirects to it, so he can start responding to the recently created token.

Hi, you say

After a guest comes into our page

So this is part of your application.
E.g.
1. Grab the data
2. Create a token
3. Write the new participant into the LS token table "lime_tokens_[SurveyID]"
4. Link to the survey with the attached token

Or you might have a look here

Hi Mr Smooth
I have the same issue. Did you sort this out? I'd really appreciate your advice, because I am on a ridiculously tight uni research deadline and I just cannot figure out I'm doing wrong with this. I'm supposed to be recruiting participants as we speak. Like, yesterday.
Cheers [smiley face with slightly panicked expression!]

to recap: I want to be able to publicly distribute the url to my (qualifier) survey and have people complete it without the additional drama of the email registration. Every extra or unnecessary step is an opportunity to lose participants.

Thank you for responding.

How does one JUST delete the token table. I haven't created a "token table". It seems to me from everything I've tested, without and without participants (I've been creating multiple fake users, as necessary) that you MUST have a participant table to run public registration, you can't JUST delete the participant/token table.

I'm sorry. Could you explain your response a little more. I don't quite understand what you're saying. Many thanks.

[Update: tonight I have succesfully tested a work-around ... I've created myself as a user and given myself a token with 10,000 repeat uses. I have emailed the survey url to myself and to my son and to a friend and it seems all we have to do is complete a simple maths question to access the survey. All the responses are on my user ID, but all the respondent details (name etc, as requested by me in the qualifier survey) allow unique responses to be identified in the xls export. Although clunky, this work-around seems to work.]

Be clear yourself : why you need a token table ?

If you need one, but don't want to send email : plugin link is here

Denis' point is that the token table is initiated to control access to the survey, either through public registration or with a pre-determined list if respondents.

If you do not need to control access (as your implementation of a 100,000-use token indicates), why bother with the token table at all. Simply make it a public survey and distribute the URL as you see fit.

Cheers,
Tony Partner
