I am creating a survey with 4 different question groups . Each group has a different kinds of questions. I would like to put 4 links on the first page of the survey that, each link is a direct link to that question group. Is that possible ?

You can put your links in the form of a question and then use conditions to hide the unwanted groups.

Conditions --> docs.limesurvey.org/tiki-index.php?page=...tions+for+LimeSurvey

That doesn't fully answer it. None of the questions in my groups are mandatory. Is it not possible to just "jump" to a question group without using conditions ? aka a direct link to display a question group ? I consider questions groups more or less as pages. Each "page" has some questions. I want the user to select a "page" by clicking on a link.

Unfortunately, no, the groups are not "pages". They may be displayed as a page but in reality they are groups of elements in a form. So there is no such thing as https://myLimeSurveys/index.php?group=2 .

The closest you could come to that would be to use JavaScript to advance the form but as far as I know, that will only work if the group has already been visited.

I don't understand the problem with using a question and conditions to display the appropriate group. It doesn't matter if the questions are mandatory (except the group selection question).

Maybe you can explain why you need 4 group.

Why you don't use 4 survey, then the four survey link appear on survey list.

This is fine..I can use the built in lime survey groups and go sequentially..

You're welcome!

Without your help we can't keep this project alive.

The feature that allows to jump between different question groups is a specification of my current project.

How can I accomplish this?

How does LimeSurvey knows which is the user current page?
Can I set this value in the cookie or can I change any value in the database?

Thank you for your support.

No workaround for this issue?
Can someone help me?

To jump forwards you can use conditions.

To jump backwards there will be a new feature at version 1.91.

There is a hiden element checking the current step in a survey, example:
<!-- group2.php -->
<input type='hidden' name='thisstep' value='8' id='thisstep' />

I will use javascript to simulate button clicks (forward and backwards) and I will check the current step using that hidden value.

Using conditions is not an option in my opinion.

Thank you
