Good Day,

I'm trying to create a custom email body by using EM . My test structure is:
Now the answer shows just fine, but the actual question I keep getting the "undefined variable" error when I place it in another question to check the logic. If I switch to the sub-question code I do get the sub-question text. Any ideas why the actual question text won't show and I'm getting the "undefined variable" error?

LimeSurvey Version : 3.17
Question Type: Array

As far as I know, you cannot access the question text of question types that have sub-questions (array, multiple-text...), you can only access the sub-question text.

Yes, you are right.
P1Q1 is a question with subquestions.

Therefore {P1Q1} is not defined.

Short time ago there was already a discussion that - at the moment - you cannot get the text of the question; only the text of the subquestions.

Dang, I was hoping I wouldn't have to rewrite the questions completely for the email.

How does the Answer Table pull the text then? Or is that some complicated code in the back end.

That's something different.
There is the table "lime_questions" in the dataset.
If you have access you may have a look.
You see that there is a field "parent_qid", where the reference between question text and subquestion text is established.

But the issue is that this access is mou published in the "access to variables"
manual.limesurvey.org/Expression_Manager...#Access_to_variables

Maybe we will see it in some version in the future.

Unfortunately I do not have access to see the back-end. Ah well, cross fingers we will be able to do it in future releases. Thanks!

It's in 4.0 : github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/blob/f8...orAll/config.xml#L12

@DenisChenu, nice!

To expand on Denis' post, in 4.x you can activate the "expressionQuestionForAll" plugin and then an expression like {Q1.question}, where Q1 is an array, will be valid.
