==================
Hello everyone,

I'm trying to adjust my navigation menu/question index, so only specific question groups are shown. I'm using the question group after question group setting.

I want to use some flag to determine wether a question group should be shown or not.

I think to achieve this I need to adjust some code in the question_index_menu.twig. This would be the relevant code, I think:
Code:
<div>
                {# TODO: move back this logic to SurveyRuntime, and provide a ready to use indexItem.statusClass #}
                {% for step, indexItem in aSurveyInfo.aQuestionIndex.items %}
                    {% set statusClass = '' %}
                    {% if attribute(indexItem.stepStatus, 'index-item-unanswered') is defined and attribute(indexItem.stepStatus, 'index-item-unanswered') == true %}
                        {% set statusClass = statusClass ~ ' index-warning' %}
                    {% endif %}
                    {% if attribute(indexItem.stepStatus, 'index-item-error') is defined and attribute(indexItem.stepStatus, 'index-item-error') == true %}
                        {% set statusClass = statusClass ~ ' index-danger' %}
                    {% endif %}
                    {% if attribute(indexItem.stepStatus, 'index-item-current') is defined and attribute(indexItem.stepStatus, 'index-item-current') == true %}
                        {% set statusClass = statusClass ~  ' disabled' %}
                    {% endif %}
                    <li class="list-group-item {{ indexItem.coreClass }}">
                        <a href='{{ indexItem.url }}' data-limesurvey-submit='{{ indexItem.submit }}'
                           class='dropdown-item  {{ statusClass }}'>
                            {{ indexItem.text }}
                        </a>
                    </li>
                {% endfor %}
            </div>

To achieve this I figure the best way would be to put everything within the for-loop into some if clause that checks if a flag on the indexItem is set. Like this:
Code:
{% if indexItem.showItem == 1 %}
{#other code here#}
{% endif %}

Could this work? And how could I attach some custom attribute to my question groups?

Or is there some other workaround I could chose?

The only thing I can think of is appending the group title with that attribute, separated by some special character.

In question_index_menu.twig, you split the indexItem.text variable by the special character to access the attribute.

In group_name.twig, you split the aGroup.name variable by the special character to remove the attribute.
Cheers,

Thank you, I think that approach might be workable.

I figured it might be even easier to put an invisible character into the title using
Code:
&amp;zwnj

But unfortunately this seems to get automatically turned into &amp;zwnj and appears in the title of the question. Is there some way to put some invisible character/string into the group title, so I can simply search for that without needing to cut the title into parts?

I use # inside the hidden group title and use strpos to add the li or not.

Thank you all for your advise. I've solved it by just adding a "#" (the character(s) are arbitrary. You can just choose whatever) at the end of the question group title. Since I'm not showing said titles this is only affecting the navigation menu/index.

I'm removing the "#" from the index entries like this: {{ indexItem.text|split('#')[0] }}
Code:
{% for step, indexItem in aSurveyInfo.aQuestionIndex.items %}
                    {% if '#' in indexItem.text %}
                        {% set statusClass = '' %}
                        {% if attribute(indexItem.stepStatus, 'index-item-unanswered') is defined and attribute(indexItem.stepStatus, 'index-item-unanswered') == true %}
                            {% set statusClass = statusClass ~ ' index-warning' %}
                        {% endif %}
                        {% if attribute(indexItem.stepStatus, 'index-item-error') is defined and attribute(indexItem.stepStatus, 'index-item-error') == true %}
                            {% set statusClass = statusClass ~ ' index-danger' %}
                        {% endif %}
                        {% if attribute(indexItem.stepStatus, 'index-item-current') is defined and attribute(indexItem.stepStatus, 'index-item-current') == true %}
                            {% set statusClass = statusClass ~  ' disabled' %}
                        {% endif %}
                        <li class="list-group-item {{ indexItem.coreClass }}">
                            <a href='{{ indexItem.url }}' data-limesurvey-submit='{{ indexItem.submit }}'
                               class='dropdown-item  {{ statusClass }}'>
                                {{ indexItem.text|split('#')[0] }}
                            </a>
                        </li>
                    {% endif %}
                {% endfor %}

Yes, if you are after a binary attribute, this is a great way to handle it.

Now I'm trying to figure out how to do a completition indicator for my custom navigation menu.

In this case I need to do three things: Find out if a question/block is answered. Find out if a question is visible/not filtered. And then see if all visible questions from a # to the next # are answered.

I guess the first I can do with this code?
Code:
{% if attribute(indexItem.stepStatus, 'index-item-unanswered') is defined and attribute(indexItem.stepStatus, 'index-item-unanswered') == true %}

But how do I check if it/all questions in the block have been filtered or not?
