Thanks but I can not import your file... some internal web server error...


Then you have some problems with your installation.

The 12345 is the encID that Tpartner used for test. This needs to be part of the link the panel is sending their participants to.

Thanks but I can not import your file... some internal web server error...

So if this is your survey URL, it would look like this:

yourdomain.com/index.php/646657?lang=en&encID=XXXXX

So the different links would look like:
yourdomain.com/index.php/646657?lang=en&encID=00001
yourdomain.com/index.php/646657?lang=en&encID=00002
yourdomain.com/index.php/646657?lang=en&encID=00003

From this URL the panel integreation reads the encID into a hidden text question which is called "encID" and at the end URL this saved encID is retrieved and included into the end url your participants will be redirected to, so that the panel provider can register if they have completed. Same for the other links that they probably have provided you with for quota, screenouts, etc.

Tried again in normal chrome, goes through the survey like a charm, but answer is not recorded in the response table.


Logged out, tried again: response was registered.
Logged in again: response was registered.

Strange. Now it seems to work.

I never use panel integration, I just rely on this - manual.limesurvey.org/URL_fields/en#Pref...using_GET_parameters .

Cheers,

I did use panel integration, but the manual gives only examples with passthru... so my panel provider followed it... now we omitted it but they still have a problem with their ID saving.... I do not know what it means, but it seems to me that is connected with the numbers at the end of the url encID=xxx

I don't want to test the end url with your file, because it directs to the panel provider already and I don't want my installation redirect to their actual links.

Your problem is that you are using the option of "always hide" in the GUI. This way the question does not appear in the source code and the ID can not be saved into the question. If you don't hide it, you'll see that the encID is saved into the "long text question" (I think a short text question would be better, but should work anyway), and it also gets passed through to the end URL. What you now need to do is to hide the encID quesiton via CSS (include the class "hidden" for this question). It will hide it from view, but it will allow LS to write into it.

Then the encID gets saved and also included into the endurl. Now you just need to set that the end url gets loaded automatically, at the moment it is just printed on the end page (maybe you just did that for testing purposes, but I thought I'd mention it anyway).

Thanks a lot... but what do you mean by GUI? Could you provide a screenshot where is this option.
CSS class is hidden for encID question already.
Yes end url is not loaded automatically for testing purposes.

GUI = Graphical User Interface (the LS backend).

Just checked the manual again, because I thought that the panel integration should work with the "always hide" feature and according to the manual about panel integration, it actually should:

1) First, create a short/long text question and name it what ever you want (we will use "LS" for the Question code field). Then, enable the always hide this question option, located under the Display tab within the menu of the question.


Either your test survey is seriously messed up in some way, or there is a bug in the newer versions of LS.

:) Yes I know it is Graphical User Interface, but still do not understand what do you mean and where is this option... (I am using limesurvey platform, not desktop installation if that means anything)
