Hi,
as I see you do not store the name.
Therefore you can't access anything by {q1.shown}
This you see easily when you activate the survey and enter some data.
Okay either you change the first quuestion to your desired type, like
or (if you want to store the name) use a first question of type "short text" in a different group which you hide by the css class "hidden"
Here you enter this javascript snippet
You see it is nearly the same, but you do not insert the selected store into the <span> element, but into the text.
And the result you can pupe into the next question
"Have you ever heard of {q1}?"
And the solution without javascript.
Generate a random number (1-5
{if(is_empty(randnum),rand(1,5),randnum)}
and display the store with a nested IF
{if(randnum==1,"Store 1",if(randnum==2,"Store 2",if(randnum=
,"Store 3",if(randnum==4,"Store 4","Store 5"))))}

1. Remove BE2
2. Change BE to "multiple short text" with two subquestions
3. Change this part of the script
that the first randomized brand is stored int the first subquestion, the second in the second.
And I advice to change these four "text display" questions to only one with a nested IF, as I showed before
Insted of this
{if(randnum==1,"Store 1",if(randnum==2,"Store 2",if(randnum=,"Store 3",if(randnum==4,"Store 4","Store 5"))))}
use this
{if(BE_SQ001=="Douglas","Douglas is a European beauty retail chain...",if(BE_SQ001="Ulta","Ulta: Ulta is a beauty retailer in the United States ...",if(...))))}

that the first randomized brand is stored int the first subquestion, the second in the second.
