Hello there

I'm relatively new to LimeSurvey, and have a question that may have more to do with LimeSurvey's controller/view model.

After completing a survey, LS shows a 'printanswers' page, containing 2 buttons to export at the top: one for PDF and one for queXMLPDF.

I'd like to remove the PDF button, and just leave the queXMLPDF one. I don't need to change functionality, just make the PDF print option invisible on the right page.

Which file would contain this last-page-of-survey layout? I'm guessing it's a /view file somewhere, but am not sure where to look in the LS directories.


Thanks guys

Pete

here you go:
github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/blob/ma...tent/submit.twig#L48

I suggest you read this article too:
manual.limesurvey.org/New_Template_System_in_LS3.x

Thanks LouisGac for those links, which I used to work out how to remove the PDF button at the end of the survey.

For others who might want to do this, here are my instructions:

1. Edit /vanilla/views/subviews/printanswers/printanswers_head.twig
2. Around line 41comment out the export to PDF button:

<!-- remove PDF link, just want queXMLPDF //-->
<!-- PDF
<div class="col-sm-6">
{{ C.Html.form(aSurveyInfo.printAnswersHeadFormUrl, 'post') }}
{{ gT("Export these responses as PDF:") }} <button class="btn btn-default" type="submit">{{ gT("PDF export") }}</button>
{{ C.Html.endForm }}
</div>
//-->

That's it: I'm guessing it's a kind of fudge, but works fine.

Pete

No fudge at all.
LS3 Theme engine has been build for this kind of use

Do not edit the core theme twig files, they will be overwritten when updating. Extend the vanilla theme and copy printanswers_head.twig to your new theme directory and edit the copied file.

Thanks Tony Partner - as I understand it, I should only be modifying the copied printanswers_head.twig that I have copied to my edited theme, not the original that came with the template. I had some trouble with permissions when copying a theme file to my own theme version, so I copied the file 'manually', and have now made the changes in that new printanswers_head.twig.
