Modify export survey response was created by prajay04
Hello,

I need to change my survey response export.

I need multi choice question to appear only once and all its answers to be displayed comma separated.
Currently question repeats for the number of option i have selected.

I have made changes to application/helpers/admin/export/Writer.php file and it works for me.

Is there any other way i can handle this without touching the core file?

I am using LimeSurvey Version 3.17.17

You are free to create a macro in your spreadsheet (EXCEL, OpenOffice,...) or in SPSS which does the job.

You should create an export plugin. Actually you could inherit already created ones. Look for them in the source code, under /applications/plugins, if I remember correctly.

Some sample of export plugin .

The «multi choice question to appear only once» it's the hardest part , you need to hack more the writer.
