The same random order

The same random order was created by vic54ga
Hello, I have two questions with multiple answers. In both questions, answers are being displayed with a random order.

I need the answers on Question1 to display with the same random order as answers in Question1.

Is there a way to save the random order generated for answers on Question1 so I can use it on the answers of Question2?

Thanks!!

LimeSurvey version?

Are both questions on the same page and sequential?

Yup, that's why I asked about the survey structure. :)

You should definitely make an upgrade. RC stands for "Release Candidate", so it is not even a stable version of Limesurvey. This should not be used for production.
Help us to help you!
  • Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
  • Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).

If the questions are on the same page and sequential, in 2.x, you can add this script to the source of the first question.

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> $(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){ // Identify the questions var q1ID = {QID}; var q1 = $('#question'+q1ID); var q2 = $(q1).nextAll('.multiple-opt:eq(0)'); var q2ID = $(q2).attr('id').replace(/question/, ''); // Loop through the Q1 sub-questions $('div.answer-item', q1).each(function(i) { // Move the corresponding Q2 sub-question var thisCode = $(this).attr('id').split('X'+q1ID)[1]; $('div.subquestion-list', q2).append($('div.answer-item[id$="X'+q2ID+thisCode+'"]', q2).parent()); }); }); </script>

Hi! I came across this post when looking for a solution to a similar issue - only difference is that the mc-questions are on different pages. Is there a way to transfer the order across different question groups, too?

Best,
hamstr
