Check all that apply Multiple Choice & comment boxes ONLY FOR CERTAIN answers was created by wannah0
Hi everyone,


I would like to create a multiple-choice question where the participant can select all that apply AND have comment boxes for certain answers (not all the answers like the "Multiple Choice with Comments" option).

To demonstrate my idea I have come up with an example:

What is your usual mode of transportation? Check all that apply.
a) bus
b) car
c) train, comment box
d) bike, comment box

Please advise on how I could get the configuration as listed above. I am complete beginner to programming so I'd really appreciate any help.

Thank you!

You probalby have to go with the muliple choice with comments question type and then hide certain comment boxes. There should be examples on how to do this in the forum.
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).
Note: I answer at this forum in my spare time, I'm not a LimeSurvey GmbH employee.

Here a script you have to enter into your question text (source code mode)
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
 
  $(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
 
    var thisQuestion = $('#question{QID}');
 
    // Remove some text inputs
    $('.checkbox-text-item:eq(0) .comment-item', thisQuestion).remove();
    $('.checkbox-text-item:eq(1) .comment-item', thisQuestion).remove();
    });
</script>

It removes the first two comment boxes.
So you see where you have to adapt if necessary.
