Hello all,
I have the following issue and would very much appreciate some help

This is the structure:

"Array" is a simple array:

Now I want to do a ranking but only with the options that are marked as "Best". As this does not seem possible with a Ranking question alone, I created a MultipleChoice question and use it as an array-filter in the ranking:

Thus, in the "Ranking" question, Array filter is set to "HiddenMC".

Now, this works as extended, BUT ONLY IF the HiddenMC question is actually NOT hidden:

But, if the HiddenMC question is configured with "Always hide this question", it does not work:

As I chose only Label1 and Label3 as "Best", the expected behaviour is that the Ranking question only shows these two. The observed behaviour is that the array filter does not seem to do anything at all


LimeSurvey version: 4.2.1, build 200428


I also provide a minimal example that showcases the behaviour, find it attached.


I would be very happy if someone could help me out with this issue

But, if the HiddenMC question is configured with "Always hide this question", it does not work:

Hide the question with a CSS class "hidden", not with the question setting.

Hi,

what did you export?
This - as you say - small sample has a size of nearly 2MB.
There seems to be a real lot of garbage in it.
You may expext 20-30 kB.

So try again.
Create this sample and export it.

And , please just attach your screenshots here.
Or if you upload to imgur, set a clickable link here.
Otherwise we have to copy each one into the browsers address line.

We are volunteers, so please, ease our life as much as possible.


Best regards

Hi,
thank you for your answers!
Using the CSS class "hidden" does indeed solve my problem! Thanks a bunch, tpartner!

To Joffm, sorry for not checking the filesize I exported it again, it's the same size. Not sure what I'm doing wrong here. But now, my issue is solved anyways

Also sorry about the pictures. I thought using [ img ] would work and display the pictures inline


Anyways, THANK YOU BOTH VERY MUCH! Thank you for volunteering, you're doing a good deed! THANKS!

To Joffm, sorry for not checking the filesize I exported it again, it's the same size. Not sure what I'm doing wrong here.

You are sending the whole (huge) survey instead of an extract with only the questions in it that contain the problem (so next time, make a copy of your survey, delete everything that is not necessary for the problem, export this version to a LSS file).
