Hello.
First of all I Apologise for my bad english.
After using 'simple' tools to create online questionnaires, I came to Limesurvey and I must say that, for what concerns the flexibility and immediacy of use is remarkable. Of course, it requires that one has hands-on in terms of questionnaires.
What, however, I'm not able to find (but certainly my fault) is how to set a conditional jump.
Let me explain. I have an introductory question that the interviewer asks whether the respondent wants to participate in the survey call.
options may be these:
1) Phone Number disabled
2) Reject
3) Participate
Here, I would like that if the answer is 3) questionnaire then proceed, if it is 1) or 2) then the questionnaire go to a closing question such as:
1) Interview ended
2) Interview interrupted
It 'obvious that this last question will be scheduled even in the case of normal continuation of the questionnaire.
In short, How do conditional jumps work?
In truth, I also need to understand that in order to understand how to structure a questionnaire, for example, according to the gender (male or female), takes a completely different path rather than another.
I do not know if I was clear, nor whether I place the matter in an appropriate manner.
I thank those who would have the patience to answer.

Limesurvey doesn't work with conditional "jumps", but with conditional hiding.
This means you can't tell Limesurvey to jump to a certain question due to an answer, but you can hide questions based on that.
This has some advantages and disadvantages. In your case what you want is basically a "screen out", which you usually would do with a quotas (apply a zero quota to the respective answer and the questionnaire is ended). However, as you want to have another question after that, you will have to do it with conditions and then hide all other questions.

Decide for one language and go for it. At least tell others that you are also asking in another language. I only just now have seen that you already had received a response in the Italian forum.
