Hey Guys...
I have a survey with 7 groups. The first 6 groups have 6 cards with a name and a humor style and the remaining group has 4 cards with descriptions of friendship. I need to ask one question per group without repeating a name, humor style or friendship condition. This needs to be fully randomized, but they cannot repeat.
I found the workaround which shows how to create a random number, but I can't figure out how to make that number not repeat, while, at the same time, store it in separate question_ids.
I looked up the javascript code to generate the random numbers from an array, but how do I get them to be stored in limesurvey?

Here's the code I was looking at adapting for my survey:

You can load the array elements into sub-questions of a hidden multi-short-text question. Have a look at this post for inspiration -
