Thank you all for your responses!
We will try the suggested plugins.

@holch, I meant that i just found it weird this bug was not priorized. I admit it is personal evaluation of the bug: because i need this feature, i am considering it annoying... quite confident that Limesurvey has several other critical bugs to adress as well.

BUT : i report a lot of bug … sometimes LimeSurvey GMBH team think i'm just a Bug reporter …

Actually, we are a paying customer, and the support just replied us with something which felt like: go dev' it yourself! (exaggeration intended ;-) )

So, thanks a lot for these plugins suggestions. Now, let's hope they'll accept to install them on our hosted instance.

Yes, you are paying for the hosting of Limesurvey, but not for the software itself. So I am not surprised that they are not stopping everything else to help you there.

I just thought it might be worth a try to see if they might prioritize this. But as I said, I didn't really expect it. But you never know.

I mean, for the couple of bugs per month that are paid for the Limesurvey hosting, one can't really expect much of customization/priority, I guess.

There are many bugs that I personally would consider much more important to fix, so there we go.

Let's see if they install the plugins for you. If not, you'll have to find alternatives, if you really need these functions, like for example host LS yourself and install the plugins, or find another tool that does what you need out of the box.
Help us to help you!
  • Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
  • Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).

I would need to search for that now. But I am mainly thinking of LS 4 right now, that needs to become stable.

I'm glad to say our request for adding these 2 plugins to our hosted instance is being considered! :-)

But now I'm wondering… Will we really be able to effectively use them, while being in a hosted environment where we don't have access to the source code, but only to some plugins "configure" buttons or surveys "Theme editor"?

Could anyone tell us if these plugins require access to the source code installation or if everything (especially the PDF design) can be configured through LimeSurvey's web interface?

TIA!

No,
you only use Expression Manager.
If you download the plugin pdfReport there is a demo lss included.

Here a very small example.
Design your report to your wishes in the question text.
Code:
<h2>Hier sind die Ergebnisse für {F6a}</h2>
{F6a} ist {F6b} Jahre alt und sein Geschlecht ist <strong>{if(F6c==1,"männlich","weiblich")}</strong><br />
<br />
{F6a} kennt folgende Ubuntu-Tiere:<br />
{list(that.F1.shown)} und mag {F3_1.shown} am liebsten {F4.shown}.
<h2>Nun die Ergebnisse im einzelnen</h2>
 
<table border="1" collapse="collapse" width="50%">
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th class="frage" colspan="3" style="background-color:#30529d;color:white;">F1. Welche der folgenden interessanten Ubuntu-Tiere kennen Sie?</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th class="tdueberq sp6" style="background-color: #B1C2E7;color:black;text-align:left;width:50%"> </th>
            <th class="tduebera sp3" style="background-color: #B1C2E7;color:black;text-align:center;width:25%" valign="middle">Ja</th>
            <th class="tduebera sp3" style="background-color: #B1C2E7;color:black;text-align:center;width:25%" valign="middle">Nein</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td class="tdquestion" style="text-align:left;width:50%">{F1_SQ001.question}</td>
            <td class="tdanswer" style="text-align:center;width:25%">{if(F1_SQ001=="Y","X","")}</td>
            <td class="tdanswer" style="text-align:center;width:25%">{if(F1_SQ001!="Y","X","")}</td>
        </tr>
