To set the value of the core progress bar, you can do something like this:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">  
 
  $(document).ready(function() {
    // Progress bar value
    $('#progress-wrapper').css('visibility', 'hidden');
    setTimeout(function() {
      $('#progressbar').progressbar('value', 50 );
      $('#progress-wrapper').css('visibility', 'visible');
    }, 250);
    });    
</script>

Cheers,

I have a survey with 226 questions / 56 hidden questions (in a different group).

The progress-bar does not indicate the right value because of these hidden questions. I understand that it is difficult to fix this.

In the previous message Tony suggested this:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">  
 
  $(document).ready(function() {
    // Progress bar value
    $('#progress-wrapper').css('visibility', 'hidden');
    setTimeout(function() {
      $('#progressbar').progressbar('value', 50 );
      $('#progress-wrapper').css('visibility', 'visible');
    }, 250);
    });    
</script>

How would I implement it, where would I put this code?

Place the code in the source of any question on the page or in the group description - manual.limesurvey.org/Workarounds:_Manip...tc..29_in_LimeSurvey

I added the below code to the source of the questions and I can see it in the page source.
However it doesn't affect the progress bar. Is the code correct, or do I need to make other changes?

Many thanks in advance,
Simon

That code is for previous versions of LimeSurvey. For the current version and the upcoming 3.x, use this code which applies to the Bootstrap progress bar.

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">     
  $(document).ready(function() {
    var progressValue = 32;
    $('.progress-bar').css({
      'transition': 'width 0s ease 0s',
      'width': progressValue+'%'
    }).attr('aria-valuenow', progressValue).text(progressValue+'%');
  });
</script>

This works better

Would it be possible to get the current question number into the script, so the script calculates the progress-percentage itself, like below:

var progressValue = Math.round( currentQuestionNumber / 226) ; ?

But...that's what LimeSurvey does automatically, so why bother with dynamically changing the progress value?

That's correct, but the number I want to divide by in the example is 226 - which is the number of real questions, excluding 24 hidden questions (that I need for the score calculation). LimeSurvey would use the value 250 there instead of 226.

The 226 questions are in the group 'data collection' and the 24 hidden questions in a separate group 'score calculation'.

I don't know of an automatic way to detect "currentQuestionNumber" that excludes hidden questions. LimeSurvey will return the question number with the {QUESTION_NUMBER} placeholder but that also includes hidden questions.

Actually that is very helpful! The hidden questions are at the end of the survey so this is perfect.
Below is the working code (if anyone else has this problem):

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">     
  $(document).ready(function() {
    var QUESTIONS = 226;
    var progressValue = Math.round(({QUESTION_NUMBER}/QUESTIONS)*100);
    $('.progress-bar').css({
      'transition': 'width 0s ease 0s',
      'width': progressValue+'%'
    }).attr('aria-valuenow', progressValue).text(progressValue+'%');
  });
</script>

I upgraded from Version 2 and unfortunately the code doesn't change the progress -bar in Version 3(.13.2).

How can fix it? Many thanks in advance.
