Hello

I am creating a survey on LimeSurvey and I am a bit stuck with a specific conditionality.

I have a first Question (F3) "What are the reasons you use the .csv file download function?" with an array (numeric) question type and checkbox instead of numbers entry; where x are the different reason(s)+other reason(s) and y different register names.
I have a second question (i3) "Please specify the other reason(s):" that should appear only for register names where "other reason(s)" were selected.

To do so, I have wrote conditions in the relevant equation (((F3_A1_SQ005.NAOK == "Y")) or ((F3_A2_SQ005.NAOK == "Y")) or ((F3_A3_SQ005.NAOK == "Y"))) and also on subquestion relevance for each y values. Regiter names are coded as "A1" "A2" "A3" and "other reason(s)" is coded as "SQ005".
But this conditionnality isn't working this way.
Do you know how I could fix this ?
Do you think the problem comes from a miswritten relevance equation ? I am not sure what value takes a column when checked. I tried "Y" "Yes" "true" "1" "on" but nothing of those value work
Or is the problem linked to the type of question F3?

Thank you in advance for your feedback.

The problem most probably is the order of subquestion code and answer option code. Afaik the subquestion code comes first, then the answer code.

Try:
It is always good to check what the output of a code is to see if the code was written correctly.

Just put {F3_SQ005_A1.NAOK} into a question text and see what the output is if you tick this box. Also, if the variable doesn't exist, Limesurvey will usually tell you that the variable is undefined.

Hello Holch

Thank you for your quick response.

I've tested F3_SQ005_A1.NAOK == "Y" as suggested in a question text but the inversion gets a red code (see attachment).
My first code was based on this topic: forums.limesurvey.org/forum/installation...option-in-limesurvey
It is possible that the box checked in LimeSurvey isn't coded as "Y" but as something else... but what?

Kind regards

OK, then your subquestion / answer code naming is a little weird. Anyway, it is difficult to say where the problem could be, without seeing what you have actually done. Screenshots only can show so much.

Provide a LSS export of the survey with only the relevant parts (copy the survey, delete everything that has nothing to do with the described issue, change the question texts if necessary, export it as LSS and upload it here).

This way we can import your survey and see everything for ourselves, and we can also test what works and what doesn't.

Hi,
it is  an Array(Numbers).
So numbers are entered. So you won't expect an alphanumeric character.
The codes of this checkbox layout are
1 = selected
probably blank = not selected

If you are not sure, activate the survey, enter some data and have a look at the answers.
Afterwards you deactivate it again.
In the answer table you see how the question/subquestion code looks like, and how it is coded.
This is how I do it if I am not sure how to access an "other" option or a comment or whatever.

Hi Joffm

Perfect, it worked this time with == "1" !!

Thanks a lot
Good evening

I had not though of the fact that the Array (Numbers) of course can only have numbers!

But with the tip of displaying the code in a question first would have brought that issue up. If you expect a "Y" and see a "1" you should be alerted.
