Add external placeholder fields was created by pokeydale
Does anybody know if placeholder fields can be added from an external source? We want to build a survey based on conditions in a database. We would like to include columns from the database table in our questions and survey text fields. Is this possible??

You can put additional data-points as attributes in a token list, which can be accessed via Expression Manager/Conditions.
manual.limesurvey.org/Survey_participant...ned_attribute_fields

This is token/participants list per survey.
If you want to do more than one survey you can also use a central participant database which also can contain these additional data-points from your database. manual.limesurvey.org/Central_participan...r_panel)_Development
