Hi all,

Just wondering if there's any way of adding more than one relevance equation which defines when the question group is to be displayed. I guess this may be the same for individual questions too.

I want a particular question group to be shown depending on what has been chosen in a dropdown question, but I also want the same question group to be displayed when an item is selected from a different dropdown question.

At the moment I have the relevance equation 'prodcat1=='A2'' set on the question group. So if A2 is selected from dropdown question 'prodcat1', then the group will be displayed. I was wondering if its possible to add multiple similar equations for the same group or is there another solution?


Thanks!

prodcat1=='A2' OR prodcat1=='A3'

Don't understand the question.

I am not sure the equation is correct. I want to show a particular question group on the next page when a certain dropdown item is selected. However I have the same question with a different question ID on the next page which also needs to show that same question group AGAIN. Is this possible with a relevance equation?

You can not show a previous group after a group ?

Solution 1:
G1: G1Q1 Y/N
G2: G2Q2 Y/N
G3: condition G1Q1=="Y" or G2Q2=="Y"

So I cannot show the same question group again? Or revert back to a certain page/group somehow?

You can not GO back in a survey by default

Alternate solution : use full index, and
G1: G1Q1 Y/N
G2: condition G1Q1=="Y" or G3Q3=="Y" and some mandatory question
G3: G3Q3 Y/N

I thought by now you understood how LS works... ;-)

Limesurvey is created for a fairly linear approach. So you go through a set of questions one by one, always in the same order. This is how most questionnaires work and thus it fits well for this purpose. Going back and forth isn't a big thing for the type of research LS was designed for. There are few options that can be used, but it is not very sophisticated. If you want to ask a question "again", you would have to create a copy of this question that comes after, so you could show this question.
