Hello,

My boss is planning a big survey with many thousands of responses. He wants for a few (20-50) to have one (complicated) extra question.
Now I looked at quotas to do that, but with quotas as far as I understand they work for the whole questionnaire and if it is above the 20-50 the rest will just see the end screen.

Is there a way to do something like quota on a question group level?

(My other solution would be to create 2 separate questionnaires, one full, one shorter and then maybe use the quota from one to the other.

Hi, as usual:
Which version are you using?

4.x. and up has a built-in plugin.
3.x. You may use a plugin that you have to install by yourself.
These count the complete surveys so far.

Or you use the SAVEDID.

Create an equation (addQuest) that calculates a value - using the SAVEDID or the other values - that each "number of expected responses / 50" participant sees the additional question.

Like {if(SAVEDID / (number of expected responses / 50) == floor(SAVEDID / (number of expected responses / 50)),1,0)}
And the relevance equation of this question is: addQuest==1.

A rough idea but might work.

I have 5.0.2 installed.

The equation looks like it would work. But just to be sure, what built-in plugin? I checked the plugin manager and did not find any that looked like they would do that.

Thanks in advance

Plugin "statFunctions".
Maybe you have to "Scan files" and install.

Included plugin ,

Maybe need to be scanned ? Unsure here …

It is strange, it says it is missing the config file.

Now I took over a very old (I think Version 1.9) and updated it and its database of old questionnaires. So I used the comfort updater and later the manual updates. I remember that there was  an error where the system looked for the plugins under /root/plugins and not /root/application/core/plugins

But the statFunctions folder (with the config.xml) is in both directories.

So not sure at all what it wants from me.

Well.. I ziped the statFunction folder, used the install plugin, selected the .zip and now it works. And also solved the other errors same way.

I think you must report this issue …

I think best is to remove all expect the last one github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/tree/ma...lugins/statFunctions
And rescan directory.
