I have an equation type question that calculates the percentage score to be displayed at the end of an assessment type survey. It calculates and displays the result when I execute a test but when I hide the question, the result is missing (displays 0). I've done the same in a different survey before and I'm sure it works well but that was a while ago.

Am I perhaps missing any step in the setup? Please advise, thanks.

The behavior of hidden equation questions has changed (I think from 2.0 to 2.05). Your setup should work at the latest Limesurvey 2.05/2.06 version.
You can test that at our demo which runs the latest LImesurvey 2.06 version.

As a workaround you can try to hide the question using JavaScript, but that will only work if there are other questions at the same page, otherwise users will see a kind of blank page. Don't forget to disable the XSS filter at global settings -> security before adding this to your question in source code mode:

In last 2.05 version : hidden equation question type are always set.

Then , need : Limesurvey version and build number. If it's last version (or last 2.05) bug can be reported.

Thank you Mazi and Denis.

Mazi, I have just tested in the demo with the same results. I tried the workaround but it doesn't work that well. Like you said, it will show a blank page which is when the presentation is group by group. If I present the question all in one page, it won't work.

Denis, I have the latest version of Limesurvey on our development server. It is Version 2.06+ Build 150619

How do I report a bug?

Thanks.

Hi,

Remind the 'little lss file' for the example.

Thanks, Denis. Bug submitted.

Thank you

I was wondering how I can get the sample survey that I've submitted with the bug report to be removed from the system as I'm getting notifications for the responses from time to time. Unfortunately I've forgotten to remove my email address when exporting the survey structure. The name of the survey is called Sample Quiz. Would really appreciate your help. Thanks.

I have written Mazi a Note to help you. If you don't see any action in the next week, please contact him directly. I am only a user and cannot help you in a direct way.

I have deleted the survey from the bug ticket.

Hi Mazi, my sample survey seem to have come 'alive' again. I'm getting notifications like these for a couple of times over the past week. Can you please help to remove the sample survey from testing? Thanks.

Hi,

Sorry : delete the survey from my test server.

PS : best is to directly send an email to postmaster next time
