Importing files other than *.lsg was created by rschipull
Is it possible to upload files other than *.lsg into question groups through the import wizard? If not, is this something that can be done on the back end through a mysql script?

I'm currently using the following version of Limesurvey Version 2.06+ Build 150629

thanks,

rob

As far as I know, you can only upload .lsg files. However, those files are XML files, which means you could write a converter from your file format to .lsg if necessary. What kind of files would you like to upload?

Yeah, just noticed they were XML files. We have some questions and answers in excel that we were hoping to batch import vs. having to do it all manually, one at a time. Guess we'll need to play around with it.

You can set up a survey with just the groups/questions you need in Excel - import that - and then export and import the group(s) you need.
(See documentation here)
