Can I prevent survey completion? In my case I have a yes/no question and if the answer is 'no' I want the survey to stop without completion status. Is this possible?

Unfortunately I cannot find anything that will help me solve this problem. Does anyone on here have an idea?

Quotas - www.limesurvey.org/manual/Quotas

I feel like this works with open surveys only. I have a closed survey with invitations. I need the survey to be halted until undefined. The survey must not be closed and definitely has to stay open. I feel like a quota will not work in this way.

I'm not sure I understand completely. You want to prevent the respondent from completing now but allow them back in later?

If so, I don't have a solution.

Exactly.

Well I'll go with manually reopen the survey for that key then. The survey is not anonymous so that is not in the way. It was just a question of automation.

Thank you anyway.

But the quota doesn't close the whole survey. It just closes the survey for those that give the wrong answer. In your case you set a zero quota for those that give the wrong answer and they will be screened out. Everyone that gives the right answer can continue.

@holch you're right , but there are an issue hard to resolve with token. If you want a token for multiple response : it broke all response, not only one .

Hard to resolve : because most user want that solution, not @pesolution need.

For @pesolution : add condition to all group after to question.NAOK=="Y" and put such string on end message

{if(question.NAOK=="Y","Ok, survey submited","Not OK survey closed")}

Thank you for the contribution.

The use case is rather unusual, but I'm stuck with it. I have a closed survey and a distribution of tokens of some kind that can lead to errors. Speak: People might get stuck with the wrong token leading them to somebody else's survey.

Now I was thinking of an initial question to validate the user's name. Something along the line "Are you <xy>?" and a y/n forced choice. If they click yes - go ahead.
If they click no - please contact administrator to resolve the issue.

It just would have been nice for the survey of that respective token to stay open. Even better: to reset said token.
