Split random order

Split random order was created by Andrea01
Is it possible to split random order for arrays, multiple choice and radio list questions?
For example question code Q1with subquestions
sq001 subquestion1
sq002 subquestion2
sq003 subquestion3
sq004 subquestion4
sq005 subquestion5
sq006 subquestion6
Subquestion1 to 3 should be in random order between themselves and additionally subquestion4 to 6 should be in their own random order.
Thanks in advance and best regards
Andrea

Hi, Andrea,
shortest and easiest way:
split it into two questions.

Thank you Joffm, I habe been thinking about this solution, but I thought there might be a more elegant way.
Also, I just discovered, that I put my request in the wrong forum. Can you please move it to forum "Can I do this with LimeSurvey" or should I post again.
Thanks,
Andrea

Hi, Andrea,
I know it's not very elegent.
But at the moment we only have workarounds for half of it: randomized first three, fixed second three.
Don't worry about the section, as long as you post in the correct language.
To be honest: Unfortunately nearly nobody seems to care about the intended content of the first three sections.
Best regards

You could do it with JavaScript but the script details would depend on the LimeSurvey version used.

Place this in template.js:
Place something like this in the source of a multiple-choice question (adjust the sub-question codes as required):
Place something like this in the source of an array question (adjust the sub-question codes as required):
Place something like this in the source of a list-radio question (adjust the answer codes as required):
Sample survey attached:
function shuffleArray(array) {
for (var i = array.length - 1; i > 0; i--) {
var j = Math.floor(Math.random() * (i + 1));
var temp = array[i];
array[i] = array[j];
array[j] = temp;
}
return array;
}Place something like this in the source of a multiple-choice question (adjust the sub-question codes as required):
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
$(document).ready(function() {
// Identify this question
var qID = {QID};
var thisQuestion = $('#question'+qID);
// First group of sub-question codes
var sqCodes1 = ['SQ001', 'SQ002', 'SQ003'];
// Second group of sub-question codes
var sqCodes2 = ['SQ004', 'SQ005', 'SQ006'];
// Shuffle the subquestions
shuffleArray(sqCodes1);
shuffleArray(sqCodes2);
// Insert the rows in the shuffled order
$(sqCodes1).each(function(i, val){
$('.subquestions-list', thisQuestion).append($('.question-item[id$="X'+qID+val+'"]', thisQuestion));
});
$(sqCodes2).each(function(i, val){
$('.subquestions-list', thisQuestion).append($('.question-item[id$="X'+qID+val+'"]', thisQuestion));
});
});
</script>Place something like this in the source of an array question (adjust the sub-question codes as required):
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
$(document).ready(function() {
// Identify this question
var qID = {QID};
var thisQuestion = $('#question'+qID);
// First group of sub-question codes
var sqCodes1 = ['SQ001', 'SQ002', 'SQ003'];
// Second group of sub-question codes
var sqCodes2 = ['SQ004', 'SQ005', 'SQ006'];
// Shuffle the subquestions
shuffleArray(sqCodes1);
shuffleArray(sqCodes2);
// Insert the rows in the shuffled order
$(sqCodes1).each(function(i, val){
$('table.subquestions-list', thisQuestion).append($('.answers-list[id$="X'+qID+val+'"]', thisQuestion));
});
$(sqCodes2).each(function(i, val){
$('table.subquestions-list', thisQuestion).append($('.answers-list[id$="X'+qID+val+'"]', thisQuestion));
