Hello, been searching for an answer to this for a while, but can't find anything. Basically, I want to be able to repeat the content of a Text Display question in later questions or in the email later, being able to only change the original Text Display question once and have the changes displayed later instead of having to change each instance. Is this doable?

You would have found it here:
manual.limesurvey.org/Expression_Manager...#Access_to_variables

As the text in a text display is the same as a question text in single punch questions,
simply

{T1.question}

Guys, thank you so much. I could never get my mind wrapped around the "QCodes" and what their purpose was as I was focused on the functions. Much appreciated. You guys are a blessing!

Hello,

maybe I am a little bit late for this thread, but since it seems to fit here: I'm searching for an option to display the text of a question with multiple answer options e. g. multiple short text. Is there any possibility to access the overall question text since {Qcode_SQ001.question} only shows the text for the first answer option and {Qcode.question} is not defined? I searched in the manual but just couldn't find anything.

Best wishes
Johannes

Hi, Johannes,
in the meantime there were a few discussions about this.

And: No, there is no access to the question text.

Thanks a lot for your quick reply.

Unfortunately we are still using version 3.x. So maybe I use a workaround with a hidden question, where I put the question text first with a single answer question type and then copy it where I want it to be seen.

Hi,
thanks, @Denis.
Really I didn't know this.
I saw these plugins, but had no idea what they are meant to do.

I would rather say: Fortunately you are still using version 3.x.

Don't update to LS 4.x anytime soon, it is not ready for production.
