You won't be able to do that if using the "mandatory" setting because there is no way to advance the survey without answering the question(s).

With non-mandatory questions you could insert a script to interrupt the "Next" button action, detect if certain questions are unanswered and, if so, pop up a modal asking whether you are sure you want to continue.

The details of that script would vary depending on the question types.

Cheers,
Tony Partner

Alternative solution : framagit.org/SondagePro-LimeSurvey-plugin/checkboxForText

This add a checkbox for 'text' question type with 'I don't want to answer' (for example) . Tested and working on 2.55 and up.

I obviously can't give examples for all combinations of questions but the following example will test to see if all questions have been answered in a group containing:
- a single multiple-choice
- a single list-radio
- a single numeric

Set up your survey to use JavaScript and place a script like this in the source of one of the questions:

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
  $(document).ready(function() {
 
    // Insert the modal elements
        $('body').append('<div id="submit-alert" class="modal fade">\
              <div class="modal-dialog">\
                <div class="modal-content">\
                  <div class="modal-header" style="min-height:40px;">\
                    <button type="button" class="close" data-bs-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">&amp;times;</button>\
                    <h4 class="modal-title"></h4>\
                  </div>\
                  <div class="modal-body">\
                    <p>You have not answered all questions!</p>\
                  </div>\
                  <div class="modal-footer">\
                    <a href="#" class="btn btn-default proceed">Proceed Anyway</a>\
                    <a href="#" data-bs-dismiss="modal" class="btn btn-default">Close</a>\
                  </div>\
                </div>\
              </div>\
            </div>');
 
    // Listener on the modal "Proceed" button
    $('#submit-alert a.proceed').on('click', function(e) {
      e.preventDefault();
      $('#movenextbtn').prop('disabled', false).removeClass('disabled active').trigger('click');
    });
 
    // Listener on the "Next" button
        $('#movenextbtn').on('click', function(e) {
      // Conditions when to show the modal pop-up
      // In this example, show the modal IF:
      //     The modal pop-up is not currently shown
      //    AND
      //    (
      //       Q1 (multi-choice) has less than one checked item
      //      OR
      //       Q2 (list-radio) is unanswered
      //      OR
      //       Q3 (numeric) is unanswered
      //    )
      if(!$('#submit-alert').is(':visible') &amp;&amp; ($('.multiple-opt:eq(0) input[type="checkbox"]:checked').length == 0 || $('.list-radio:eq(0) input[type="radio"]:checked').length == 0 || $('.numeric:eq(0) input[type="text"]:eq(0)').val() == '')) {
        e.preventDefault();
        $('#submit-alert').modal('show');
      }
      $('#movenextbtn').prop('disabled', false).removeClass('disabled active');
    });
    });
</script>

We had this requesting answers vs. enforcing answers before.

I have opened a feature request for this kind of behavior.

Yup, but please note that the workaround in your first link is for 2.06 and probably won't work in 2.5x without modification.

Yepp, still on 2.6.X ;-) Let's see if 3.X will bring a consolidation. Not sure if we can allow you to provide workarounds for three flavors of LS.

As long as it is a multiplication of the current fees I think it is totally fine... ;-)

Hi ,

I really think it's a misconcept to allow some question to be non mandatory if we click on a button.

I think the concept MUST be :
- Add a way to choose 'I don't want to answer' anywhere, i wrote NA after

Here : there are currently multiple solution
-> single choice : just add one Answer NA
-> multiple choice : Add a NA exlusivle option
-> Array : Add a NA answer (each line)

No , the 'hardest'
=> Any question (whole part), code (for the example) : CODE
-> Add a multiple choice after the question CODENA, with only one subquestion NA
-> Add relevance/equation/condition on the first question : CODENA_NA
=> Specific to single text and multiple text
-> Usage of framagit.org/SondagePro-LimeSurvey-plugin/checkboxForText

For this plugin : i must fork it and doing a plugin using only Question advanced settings, but it work, really work. I update it in 3.0 because seems to be easiest to add HTML in answers (unsure on this part ....)
