Is it possible to temporarily preventing the creation of new surveys until all the existing open surveys have been completed? We are running 2.65X

In a word, no. What defines "existing open surveys have been completed".

Tony, thanks for your response, actually we are looking to allow existing ongoing surveys to finish while preventing the creation of new ones. Is there something we could do to the permissions table combined with setting the

'auth_webserver_autocreate_permissions

'surveys' => array('create'=>false,'read'=>false,'update'=>false,'delete'=>false)

Permission plugin is easy : just return false got surveys/create permission.
Maybe for survey/activate too.

Hi Denis, are you saying that I should select

configuration -> Manage survey administrators -> for each user set permissions removing create survey ability?

Is there a permissions plugin I should install?

Yes, you can : then no user (excpet super admin) can create survey

No, there are non current plugin like this.

But Permission event is really easy to use : any PHP dev can return false on a specific permission.

Then : you don't have to disable manually survey/create to each user.
