I have a survey where the last question has a condition. This last question is in its own group. If this condition is false the survey displays a next button instead of a submit button on the previous question. I have tried a bunch of different workaround attempts, placing it the previous group, pudding the condition on the group instead of the question and stuff like that. Nothing seems to work and am kind of stumped. 

I have seen some posts in the forums about just changing the name of the button with jquery, but I really need the submit action because I need to pass the screener id {SAVEID} value to the next survey. Without the submit button, this value doesnt get saved / created.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you send a small sample LSS that shows the problem?

And if you say condition: are you really using the condition designer or is it more a relevance equation that you are using?

Ahhh, and what Limesurvey version are you running on?

Hi Holch.We have LimeSurvey Version 3.18.0 190923. I have a relevance equation, but have also tried with the condition designer.I have attached an lss file.Thanks!

First of all, before you try to debug anything, is to update to the latest version of your LS3 branch. Your installation is over 2 years old, this is like decades in internet years. I don't think it makes sense to try to debug anything on such an old installation. If you don't want to update your production installation (which I would still recommend on the long run, because given all the new privacy laws like GDPR, LGPD and how they are are all called, I wouldn't want to run a software on the internet collecting personal data that hasn't been updated or received any bug fixes and security updates for well over 2 years), make a new install to test.

So I imported your LSS file.

Found this in one of the first questions: "did not geta a test", might want to change the typo.

Now I tested the survey with being 18 and I got the last page. Shouldn't the relevance equation prevent me from getting the last question? Oh, I think the relevance equation is wrong.

I mean, if you use OR here, any age will get this question, because everyone is either above 13 or below 17. I assume you are looking for people older than 13 and younger than 17, right (14-16 year olds).

And then the brackets are also odd, there are at least some brackets missing or some too much. Will test some more.

OK, there are quite a few other mistakes there. Here what you have in your end message:

I see two major problems: It should be called SAVEDID not SAVEID, this is the first mistake and probably the cause of your question.

And then there is some logical error in the ages.

Because to show the last page the people should be > 13 and < 17 which would equal to 14-16.

But to show the SAVEDID you use < 13 (12 years or younger) and > 17 (18 or older. What about the 13 year olds and the 17 year olds?

By the way, the SAVEDID is only shown when the survey is active, not in the preview mode, because in the preview mode there has not been created any database entry, thus there is also no SAVEDID.

Please find the "fixed" LSS attached. Everything should work now. The button still says "next" but it works just like a "submit" button.

This is all great help I appreciate it! Really amazing!We do actually want to display the last question for those who are ineligible. but I can change the operators back.Thanks again, this has been a tremendous help!

Only on the last page the submit button (which is always of type "ls-button-submit") shows the text "Submit", on all other pages "Next".
And each click on this button submits the data of the actual page.

So, if the last page isn't shown because of your relevance equation you will never see a "Submit" displayed.
This can be an advantage to join two survey seamlessly.

And if you want to show the word "Submit" to all participants, you only need to add a further question, e.g. a text display where you thank them for their time or whatever.
This way anybody sees a "Submit".

The problem with your relevance equation was that the limits where wrong, in my opinion you had two ages, 13 and 17, that where not reflected. Have a look again. I might be wrong, but...
