Changing question type (after saving) without wasting response options... was created by atavei
Is it possible to change the question type (after saving) without wasting the entered response options? For example, changing from a multiple choice question to a radio list type without sacrificing the alternatives included in the M Choice question?
Thanks.
Thanks.

No, you will need to re-enter the answer options for the select-radio question.

Would be great if the answer options would be preserved between single choice and multiple choice. But at least with the quick edit you can paste the responses quite quick again.
