Can we branch short answer questions? was created by torilee93
Hello,

Right now I have questions setup as question type Array. I have it so when users answer yes or no to the first question it then branches to the second or third question depending on their answer. However, all the questions are yes/no questions.
Is there a way to branch to a short answer question?

For example,

Question 1

Is your dog exhibiting any aggressive behavior?

If yes, go to Question 2 (Short answer question)
Please describe in detail the aggressive behavior

If no, go to Question 3 (Y/N question)
Is your dog potty trained?


Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi,
this does not depend on the question type.
You enter the correct relevance equation into the question.

Question 1
Is your dog exhibiting any aggressive behavior?

If yes, go to Question 2 (Short answer question)
Please describe in detail the aggressive behavior
Relevance equation: Question1=="Y"

If no, go to Question 3 (Y/N question)
Is your dog potty trained?
Relevance equation: Question1=="N"

This is if you used the built-in "Yes/No" question.
If you used a list(radio) with bootstrap buttons, you have to your codes of "Yes" or "No".
