I have a survey which has 32 questions in 4 sections.

my question is
Enter the sex

The solution is: set condition sex=='male' on each later group.

Or put a quota of 0 on "female" - www.limesurvey.org/manual/Quotas

Show/Hide groups conditionally
But is the example correct? Should numKids = 3 not be numKids == 3 ?
I have hundreds of surveys that use this feature with ==).
The survey does not have to be active.

In your case the best / simples solution is the "zero" quota that Tpartner suggested.

For quotas to work, your survey needs to be active.
Help us to help you!
  • Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
  • Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).

You're totally right !!!!

And for Quota to 0 : survey need to be activated .
PS: If omeone can put a featre request to test quota at 0 even if survey is not activated ...

to Holch,
how do i even add that kind of condition.
I have logic for show hide question it is working fine without the survey being active.
My conditions is i have to end the survey in middle if the answer if the answer to a question is different.
I don't see a place in the survey tool where i can add that kind of logic....

It is not "conditions", it is quota that you need.

Here is how to use them: www.limesurvey.org/manual/Quotas

If you set the quota value for the answer "female" to "0", the survey will be ended there. You can set the message that is shown to respondends who are "screened out" (that is how we call this process in market research, if someone does not fit into the target group for a survey).

Looks like there is a Field called Relevance Equation in each question group we can write the conditions with the question code and answers to make it visible

like

Sex=="Male"
it will be visible only when sex is male else it will be hidden.

Correct. This is the other option. But I would only use this, if there are still questions to answer for them. However, from what you described, you are not interested in the answers of "female" respondents in this case, because they are not part of the target group. So why have a condition in every single question/group that follows instead of just saying thank you and finish the survey for them at this point with a zero quota?

Holch may be right that quota is a better solution. But the filter is still a very useful solution for more complicated situations(and it also works when the survey is not active).
If you cannot find it, look at the attached screendump.

No doubt that the filter / condition is a VERY useful tool. Because sometimes there are questions, that just make sense for a certain target.

Why should I ask someone what the brand of his car is, when he answered before that he doesn't have a car.
