Hi all,

I need help please.... I would like to do this :
I've several persons that every days are numbering different species of bird and I would like them to report the date, species and the number of bird seen. Is limesurvey able to do this? (Bird species are given data, only number and date should be open fields)

Thank you for your help.

All the required question types are supported by Limesurvey (birds = drop down list, number = numeric question, date = date question type).

OK so how to do it, I really don't know ?

All these basics should be explained at the manual. For adding new questions: www.limesurvey.org/manual/Adding_a_question

The problem is how when displaying the statistics to link a date with number and species, because for the moment I've only a vote for each bird, and I'd like to get number of each specie by date, do you see ?

When viewing results there will be one line per data set with a single column per question/item and the details within the cells.
That overview can easily be sorted/filtered by date or species.

The Limesurvey statistics also allow complex filtering.

I would like for the entire Survey be able to display in the same graphic, how many bird of each differents species for each date, and I can't do it with filtering. So if you know how to do it could you give me a step by step procedure please ?

Limesurvey is a tool for data collection, not for data visualization. There is a basic reporting included, but this is rather to have some quick overviews. For detailed analysis you usually need to use other tools.

That is the reason why I'm asking if its possible or not ?

It is possible, with external tools or by hacking the code. But for that you will need programming knowledge and no one will be able to give you a step by step procedure, as this is a individual, customized solution.

With Limesurvey installed on your own server you have full access to the database. So you could read out the database where the results are stored with any web application that supports MySQL and then create your own reports. However, this is nothing you usually do in a few minutes.

OK Thanks I forget it ....

Here is what I have with live Survey
