Hello everyone,

I am creating a product evaluation survey, I want the person who answers the survey to take a photo of the product they are evaluating and upload it to the survey, is there a way to do this?

It is worth mentioning that I need to validate this question so that the photograph is necessarily loaded in order to continue.

I appreciate your help too much.

Please refer to the manual.

- manual.limesurvey.org/Question_type_-_File_upload

Thanks, I'll take a look

Hi tpartner

I have read the manual, so I understand this type of question can only be applied to a single question.

Currently what I'm trying to do is to take a photo of a list of products and upload it to the survey. that is to say, that they select the product and attach their resoective photo,

I have managed to ask this type of question with the following HTML code:


<form action="../../form-result.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" target="_blank">

<p>

Sube un archivo:

<input type="file" name="archivosubido">

<input type="submit" value="Enviar datos">

</p>

</form>




The problem now is that I do not know if it is possible that these images are reflected in the survey database? or failing that they are hosted on the server. Is this possible?

If so, how can I know where the images are loaded?

Or if I am doing something wrong.

I appreciate too much time for my doubt.

Greetings.

Hi,
if you examine the answer table of the LS database "lime_survey_[surveyID]", you will see that an upload question has two fields in the datatable
in field {SGQ} of type "text" the file information, in field {SGQ}_filecount of type integer the count of uploaded files.
Like
"123321X123X9876": [{ "size":"102.65","name":"file.pdf","filename":"fu_trz5np4mn5pbgr4","ext":"pdf" }]
"123321X123X9876:filecount": 1

And you find the file "fu_trz5np4mn5pbgr4" itself in folder "/upload/surveys/[surveyID]/files" .

Now you may create these fields in the database by creating as many hidden upload questions as you may need.
And your "form-result.php" handles the upload and enters the data into the respective fields of the answer table.

If so, how can I know where the images are loaded?

Exactly this you have to do in your php file.

In my opinion this is really not the best.
Why can't you split the question?
1. The multipunch question to select the product(s).
2. For each product an upload question, displayed by relevance



And to validate?
Set the min count to "1".

Thank you very much JOffm.

I think your option is the most feasible.

Thanks for taking the time to help me with my question.

Greetings.

Hi joffm

Excuse me again
Now I have another problem,
At the time of testing, send me this message:

Sorry, file type (extension:) is not allowed!


What does not allow me to upload any file of any extension and size.

I have tried to activate the survey and it follows the same problem, I found something in this same forum but I do not know if it is itself my version of PHP, currently the versions that I am using are the following:



Should I update the PHP version of the page? or is it some other mistake that I'm just making?

Thanks again for the help.

Which file types did you set to be allowed?
