==================
Hi,

Using LimeSurvey from v3 and very happy with it. It's in use for several surveys in a school environment.
Now we want to go further and my colleagues request me a sort of test with several questions, each with 3 or 4 answers, only one is OK.
It's an easy request and had it done in minutes but now they want the students to see which questions they failed (or which were OK) at the end of the test.
I think I can't get this behaviour with LS, tried tha assessment system but it works as a global result of the test and can't make out of the answers so I thought about pdfReport could acomplish the task.
I installed and activated it but I need some guidance to generate the html text with the needed tags I could use to replace each question number (or text), and the same for the answers to be able to print if the question was correct or no...
I can't find any document about this, only that you can use the text of the upload question to generate the pdf and nothing about how to replace text from the "survey"
 

Hi,

I think I can't get this behaviour with LS

Of course you can do that.
Use ExpressionScript in the end message.
Here a very small example.



And if I select "Bamako"


with this in the end message (all inline styling removed for more clarity)


And you can use all properties
[url] www.limesurvey.org/manual/ExpressionScri...#Access_to_variables [/url]
and all implemented functions
[url] www.limesurvey.org/manual/ExpressionScri...mplemented_functions [/url]
of ExpressionScript.

Furthermore you can use all features of bootstrap to improve the appearance.

Here you only display the results at the end of the survey.

If you want to create a pdf report to send it to the participant you can start by entering exactly the same.
And have a look at the demo surveys that are included in the plugin zip file.

Hi Joffm, THANK YOU so much for the clear and nice answer.

I can do that and it solves 99% of my needs. I didn't know about ExpressionScript and it's great news for me!

One final question for you, I was reading all the info (I had to read the manual fully before starting this, sorry about that) about expressionScript but didn't find how to solve one thing.
You wrote:

{if(Q1==2,'This answer is correct','This answer is wrong. The correct answer is "Bamako"')}

I'll be not involved about typing the questions/answers, etc. and sure my folks will want to change them several times, etc. so...
Could I change the number "2" in you expression for the "right" answer number, knowing that the "right" answer is the one that have an assessment value of "1", that way the expression will remain always the same, no need to change something there, and my folks only need to "mark" the right answer with "1" in the field that is shown if you enable assessment mode? And, as a bonus, I will get the assessment system that could add a nice phrase at the end encouraging the students depending on their full test result, I could also do that with expressions now that I know them but, if it's there, let's use them.

I have to thank you again for your help!

You ask to your folks to use 1 for assessment, and you use

www.limesurvey.org/manual/Assessments

And, as a bonus, I will get the assessment system

You should forget this "assessment system".
It is outdated since ExpressionScript was implemented (about 10 years ago)

But "assessment values" may be of importance.

Usually you only use the codes.
But incase you want to weight two or more answer options equal or use negative values you have to use assessment values.

Code:

{if(Q1.valueNAOK==2,'This answer is correct','This answer is wrong. The correct answer is "Bamako"')}

Shouldn't this be:

Because he says the assessment value for the correct answer would be "1", not "2".
