Hallo
is there any way to default select a question type in the "Question Types list" for every new question in a survey?
The "old" way via question.php =< version 3 doesnt work anymore. Maybe its possible, to integreate the value in global.conf?!

Thank you

Stephan

Also, something like this in /application/config/config.php to set the default for new users:
 
 
Code:
  'config'=>array(
  // debug: Set this to 1 if you are looking for errors. If you still get no errors after enabling this
  // then please check your error-logs - either in your hosting provider admin panel or in some /logs directory
  // on your webspace.
  // LimeSurvey developers: Set this to 2 to additionally display STRICT PHP error messages and get full access to standard templates
    'debug'=>0,
    'debugsql'=>0, // Set this to 1 to enanble sql logging, only active when debug = 2
    // Mysql database engine (INNODB|MYISAM):
    'mysqlEngine' => 'MYISAM',
    //'force_xmlsettings_for_survey_rendering' => true, // Theme XML files are immediately applied without the need to uninstall and reinstall the theme    
    // Update default LimeSurvey config here
    'preselectquestiontype' => 'L', // Preselected Question Type
    'preselectquestiontheme' => 'listradio', // Preselected Question Theme
  )

Cheers,
