Hi,

Question "Done" : set it to single choice with default value "YES"
After you see it in Quota "YES" to 100.

If it don't work with default value : add an Equation question type somewhere and put {DONE="YES"}

as far as I know, the equation type can not be used for quota.

You need to create maybe a single choice question, you could actually have just one answer and then you mark this answer via EM in the hidden question.

This means, basically all respondents that have passed this question will have the same "response" and then you can create a quote on this answer.

the quota semi-worked for me. So I have created group in my test survey at the end of the child/adult survey (so they both will see the same group prior to ending the survey) with a hidden question (done) with 1 answer choice and the default value is that choice.

I have set the limit to 3 and took the survey 3 times. On the 4th time, I did not get to the "the quota has been filled message" until after completing the adult/child survey. So basically right before seeing the group with the hidden question.

Is there a way that I can terminate the survey at an earlier point (e.g at the consent page or the prescreen page)?


I just want to reduce patient burden. The child and adult survey are pretty long (about 50 questions)., so I would hate for the patient to spend an hour completing the survey and see that quota message at the end.

This is how I have my quota set up. so unsure if I am setting this up right

Hi,

I just mean :
Done must be a single choice question with one answer .
You set this question hidden by attribute
Use it for your quota

Survey file provided : demonstration.sondages.pro/67142?newtest=Y#

Thanks. That is what I did, hidden question with the default value of 1 and then use that as a quota.

Now my question is, how do I get the quota to end the survey BEFORE getting to the end of the survey?

I also found your post on this ( bugs.limesurvey.org/view.php?id=9816 ). I am on Version 2.06+ Build 150831 of LS. Has this feature been built in or is it a plugin?

The quota should end at this same point if the number of completes has reached before.

If you click on y example link : you're out at start of survey, just after welcome page ...

For 150831 : i don't remind when this can be used, but think it's OK with 150831. But you can update to last 2.06 release : github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/releases/tag/2.06_plus_160129

Is this feature built into 2.06+ 160129? I just want a confirmation before I contact my IT dept to do the upgrade.. They may give me a hassle about it since I just had them upgrade to 2.06+ 150831 2-3 months ago after using a very very very old ver (1.51 i think).

Actually they should upgrade whenever there is a new version... so much about giving you hassle... ;-)

I think this feature is in 150831.

I'm sure it work with included lss file and last 2.06 version.

Did you try with my file ? (5 answers max)
