I know I've asked this before but I can't for the life of me find the thread!

We are currently using version 1.91 + Build 10494.

I have a student user and an instructor user. I'd like to be able to let the instructor see the student user's surveys. Is this possible, or do I need to do this on the actual survey?

Thanks

First of all, version 1.91 is very, very old and not supported anymore. You should really, really think about upgrading, especially as Limesurvey has gone a long way and is so much better today.

Now to your problem: I don't know if this is possible in 1.91, but I think it is. Unfortunately your version is so old that probably no one will have a installation to look this up.

If you are the super-admin, you can give the rights to this survey to the instructor as well. I think the student can also give the right to the instructor, if the student has built the survey.

In 2.05 it is under "Survey properties" (the pencil symbol) and there under "survey permissions".

There you can add an user to the survey.

And again: Think about upgrading. If you are worried about upgrading your current install: Just setup a new install in parallel and then gradually move everyone to the new install. So everyone can run their old surveys until they are finished without having to worry about a new version.

Then move everyone who will create a new survey to the new system. I think it is well worth it, because of the functionality. And there is also always the security aspect. You are running a software on a server that is probably 4-5 years old and probably hasn't been patched since.

Yes, Holch is correct. If you don't want to make the instructor a super-admin, the students can add the instructor as an admin to their surveys. And if they don't, well, then they fail the course :laugh:
