I want to change some default settings too and the only way I could do that is changing the source code of the LimeSurvey installer.
As I could see, this defaults are in the databases. So they are saved in database when installing LimeSurvey.
For instance,
is saved as
by default in database.
The files that the installer uses for creating and populating the database are
Code:
installer/sql/create-<dbms>.sql
.
In case of
the file
Code:
installer/sql/create-psql.sql
contains the following piece of code:
Code:
CREATE TABLE prefix_surveys (
// ...
"datestamp" character varying(1) DEFAULT 'N' NOT NULL,
// ..
);
So you should change the line
to
Code:
"datestamp" character varying(1) DEFAULT 'Y' NOT NULL,
For an installation already existent you should change the defaults directly into the database.
