Hi,

I would like to discard the "exit and clear" button from my survey. How do I do this?

Kind greetings, Sjanett

Remove the {CLEARALL} placeholder - probably found in navigator.pstpl.

Hi, could you elaborate a little bit further on this?
were and how do I change this?

Hi Sjanett,

Go into the template editor and make a copy of the template you are using if it is a default one (so u can edit it). Then select the copy to edit and select the navigator.pstpl file on the standard files list. Then remove the {CLEARALL} text in the editor, then save. You will then need to change your survey to use the copy of the template you changed under your survey general settings.

More information on templates is availalbe at docs.limesurvey.org/The+template+editor&...tions+for+LimeSurvey

This deletes the functionality of the button, but it still keeps the button visible for participants.

Is there a way to make the words "Exit and clear survey" also invisble to participants instead of just disabling its functionality?

If the button is still visible after you changed the template, you might have done something wrong. Are you using the correct template?

Yes. I know I use the correct template because the functionality of the button disappears as soon as I delete {CLEARALL} from navigator.pstpl
Is there something else I need to remover, or do I need to remove {CLEARALL} somewhere else maybe?

Assuming you are using version 2.5x with one of the shipped templates, you can add this to the end of template.css:

Thank you very much. Indeed I was using the "default" template and your solution worked.

You're welcome.

In my opinion, the #clearallbtnlink element should not be rendered if the {CLEARALL} placeholder is not used. Please file a bug report.
