Confirmation email without token was created by Hierony
Hi guys and thanks for this great software,

I was wondering if it is possible to send a confirmation email after a user has submitted his survey.

I know token does this but i want my survey to be the most open possible, i.e. the users must not have to bother with email replying to get a token. I know that this way the same person could answer the survey more than once but it doesn't make a difference for me.

TIA

Hello,

you can add a new question (question type: Short free text) to ask the participant to enter an e-mail adress. Then you can note the SGQA Identificator and add something like
Code:
{INSERTANS:9999X88X12}
into "survey settings" -> "Notification & data management" -> "Send basic admin notification email to:" or "Send detailed admin notification email to:"



For more information about the SGQA and how to get/know it have a look at docs.limesurvey.org/SGQA+identifier . If you don't know something it might also be a good idea to have a look at the user manual in the LimeSurvey wiki: docs.limesurvey.org/English+Instructions+for+LimeSurvey

Mit freundlichen Grüßen/Best regards,

Thank you vierundzwanzig!
That works perfectly.

I have no problem using this method myself but since i am preparing limesurvey for other persons who will find this method difficult, i was wondering how it would be possible to make a small script.

Where do i put a script to be run after the submission of a survey?
How to always run this script on any surveys created by users?

TIA
Jérôme

I tried to do exactly what you said with the {INSERTANS:9999X88X12}, but it doesn't work.

Do I need to change something in the config.php file?

Thak you for your help.

You have to replace the IDs (9999, 88, 12), see docs.limesurvey.org/img/wiki_up/SGQA.png

I know. I wrote the appropriate IDs and it still doesn't work. If I write an email in the box "Send basic admin notification email to", it works. But when I write {INSERTANS:53238X445X2902}, nothing happens.
I wish it would work!

I have tried this both with the actual survey I want the feature with (an imported survey) and by creating a new survey with just a name and email field. It will not work.

I followed the documentation through the new Expression Manager system, did this functionality get changed or broken recently?

LimeSurvey 1.92, build 120303

I would be very happy with this functionality - I have the same experience as contributors before me - filled in the code correctly as suggested as far as I can see (survey ID, group ID, question ID separated by big "X") but no e-mails reach the respondent. Is there anything I can do with that? I need confirmation emails to be sent out for an application form that is freely accessible on the net.
Would greatly appreciate help here!

Just to add to the message above; I've also tried regular expressions instead of the SGQA. I used regular expressions with the code "emailToMember" in the mail address field in the survey and then using {emailToMember} in the "Send basic admin..."-field in the Admin console. Doesn't work either...

As from Limesurvey 1.92+ we use question codes rather than. Read "Replacement Fields" www.docs.limesurvey.org/tiki-index.php?p...#Access_to_Variables

I put {email} in the "Send basic admin notification email to:" field of Notification & data managment and then edited the template to suit the confirmation email to be sent.

Err... I'm not sure what you mean by this. :huh:

The problem pointed to in this thread is that variables, in all their forms, does not seem to work. At least not in the installations referred to in this thread. :(
