Hello, 
I would like to create a very simple questionnaire where people have to rate an image based on their familiarity. I have around 90 images and I need to store the answer for each image individually, but the question is exactly the same for each image. Is there a way to loop through a single question/question group just by changing the image every time, instead of creating 90 (almost) identical questions individually?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
unfortunately LimeSurvey does not support loops.

In your case it is the easiest and fastest way to copy the question 90 times.
If you name the images in a suitable way, like "img01.jpg", "img02.jpg",... you only have to click the "copy" button, enter a new question code and adapt the image name.

Done in less than 30 minutes.

There is a way to "fake" a loop.
If you are able to read German, here is a thread that was opened five days ago (but in my opinion not really necessary)

Volunteers are not paid.
Not because they are worthless, but because they are priceless

And you really should rethink to make one person evaluate 90 images. People get bored. They probably don't evaluate with the same enthusiasm after 20 or so images with always the same and repetitive question. I know I wouldn't. There comes a point where respondents ask themselves: Will this never end? Just like you when you will copy the questions and rename it and adapt the image. ;-)
