Add a text box beside answer option was created by LisaTW
Hi there,
I'm designing a single choice question. there are two answer options, one answer option needs to add a text box beside it.
Could I do this in limesurvey? (please see the picture)

You can define a single choice question with one option: NO. And an "other" option where you replace the word other with "Yes".
See image and attached .lss file.
There are also ways of changing the position of the "other" option. That has been described here on the forum.

 

Personally I would just define a long text question where I would ask the question that you ask. Not with Yes/No.

Hi Tammo,
Thank you for your quick reply.
I have seen the lss file, it's exactly what I want. But I would like to put "Yes" option ahead of "no" option to encourage participant to answer. 
"And an "other" option where you replace the word other with "Yes""
Could you please tell me how to replace "other" with "yes"?

In the display options of the radio button question, you can rename the "Other" option.

There have been several questions about repositioning the other option, but I am afraid I do not have the time now to look that up for you.

I am pretty sure it must be in questions on the forum that were answered by Tpartner (the javascript guru) of Joffm (the most helpful guy in multiple languages)

There is also a plugin for changing the position of the other option:

Hi,
though you didn't address me:

You have to use another small workaround
This you finf here
[url] manual.limesurvey.org/Workarounds:_Manip...meSurvey_version_3.x :[/url]

fixedAnswer = 1

Remember: The code of "No" shall be "1", and "Yes" is still the "Other" option, coded with "-oth-"

Though for your needs this is much shorter.
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" data-author="Tony Partner">    
    $(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
 
        // Move "Other" to the first position
        var otherItem = $('#question{QID} li[id$="X{QID}other"]');
        otherItem.prependTo(otherItem.parent());
    });
</script>
