Theme: How do I set up question conditions and insert videos or pictures?
==================
Hello,

there're in fact 2 questions I need support.
First, how could I edit answer or set up conditions? For example for this sigle choice question 6, if participant answers Yes, then goes to question 7; if he answers No, then goes to question 8. There's no edit answer buttom in my survey at all!
Secondly is it possible to insert pictures directly, I have inserted a link, but the picture dosen't show at all in the question preciew.
Or would it even to possible to insert a video directly, so participant can watch the video directly at the question page and then  answer the question, right now I could only insert a link.

Looking forward to your reply.

Best Regards,
Sternee

So you are running on LS 5.2.5. I am pretty sure that you can edit questions and if you can edit your questions, you can edit the answers there as well, how else did you put your answer options in the first place?

However, from what I understand, you don't want to edit answers, but you rather want to put conditions.

Limesurvey does not have "jumps", so you can't tell Limesurvey to jump to a specific questions when respondents have given a certain answer. Limesurvey follows a different philosophy, which is quite flexible, but requires a little bit more work.

What you need to do in your example for example, is hide question 7, if the answer in 6 was "no". You can do this either by adding conditions via the interface, but I honestly rather suggest to get the basic idea of expression manager and relevance equations.

For each question and question group, you have a field for "relevance equations", where you can define in which cases this question/group is shown.

Let's say in your question 6 has the question code Q6 the answer options are "Yes" (1) and "No" (2).

So in the relevance equation of Q7 you would write something like:

[code]Q6==1[/quote]

This means that Q7 is only shown if the response in Q6 was "1" or Yes. If it was No, this equation isn't true and the question Q7 will not be shown.

Secondly is it possible to insert pictures directly, I have inserted a link, but the picture dosen't show at all in the question preciew.
Or would it even to possible to insert a video directly, so participant can watch the video directly at the question page and then answer the question, right now I could only insert a link.


Of course this is possible. You can either do it via the WYSIWYG editor, which I personally would not recommend, I avoid it.

But Limesurvey is pretty much just a "website", so you can use normal HTML code to insert photos or videos, as you would on any other website.

If you just post a link, Limesurvey doesn't know what you want to do with this link. It will just display what you have posted.

You need to use the right HTML code to display the image behind this URL:

www.w3schools.com/html/html_images.asp

Thank you so much for your answer.

I have try to edit conditions as you told me, but it doesn't work.
I'm not so sure if I did it in a wrong way, here's what I did:
code for the Q6 is G01Q07, code for answer yes is AO01.

I added this Code for Q7, Question validation equation: [ code ] G01Q07 == AO01 [ / quote ], but at the question summary board the code is actually red, so I doubted that I added the wrong code, and it didnt work.

And secondly for the Videos, could you give me a example, I didn't find anywhere or button to add a video, only insert a image.

Looking forward to your reply!

Best regards,
Ying

Hi,

G01Q07 == AO01  will not work because AO01 is a text; therefore you have to surround it by quotes G01Q07 == "AO01"

Now you talk about "question validation", but you started with "conditions".
"question validation" is a feature to make sure that a question is answered correctly (e.g. within a certain range, in a ceratin format,...)

As far as we understand you only want to display (or not) a question depending on the answer of a previous question. @holch showed how to do that.

2. Video:
You don't see this button?
 

If not you can insert videos with the usual HTML tags, like 
Code:
<video src="https://www.myServer.com/myVideo.mp4"> </video>

Thx. But I wanted to add conditions to the answers. For example, if you answer Yes to Question 6, then you would be redirected to Question 7, if you answer No, then you would go to Question 8.

I havent figured out how to add these conditions.

Maybe this helps:

In Question 7: the condition is: Question 6 == "Yes"
In Question 8: the condition is: Question 6 == "No"

this is only schematic. It means to show that there is not "skip logic", but "show logic". You define on what conditions a question is shown.

Thx! The condition is successfully set up!
Now I have another problem with videos, I have tried to insert YouTube Videos and it worked.
But when I uploaded videos myself and previwed the question, the videos cant be show or played, there's a white bar?
What else do I need to do to upload a video successfully?
Right now I only added video source link and then upload the video.

Please open another forum topic for the video. It is not related to your previous question.
