<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div><br /> Here is a simple solution to create question pools for Limesurvey.<br /> <br /> It will require access to the backend database. I&#039;m not going to explain how to do this, as if you don;t understand it, then you shouldn&#039;t really do it. Hopefully an option will appear in a new version.<br /> <br /> Basically 3 tables exist that we care about<br /> <br /> lime_surveys - id field  = sid<br /> <br /> lime_groups - id field = gid<br /> <br /> lime_questions id field = qid<br /> <br /> In order to show the questions correctly the id field from the lime_groups table exists in the lime_questions table. This then is used to create the parent/child relationship.<br /> <br /> However, if you want to create a pool of questions all you need to do is to amend the gid field in the LIME_QUESTIONS table to a value that doesn&#039;t exist in the lime_groups table. I would use 0 or a something silly like 10000. Try this with one question and you will notice it doesnt appear in the question list.<br /> <br /> It&#039;s a crude workaround, but allows you to create as many questions as you want, without having them visible.<br /> <br /> This could also be applied for groups as well just by using the sid field in the lime_groups table.</div>
