Survey Customization

Is there a way to target a specific survey ID with the intent to customize said survey's styles?

One way I have in past is to pull the source code into a Pagebuilder page. Then you have complete control over styling.

Michael's idea is 'survey scraping'. Copy the source. Trim everything out that isn't FORM or INPUTS, and replace all that html with anything you want. So long as the form code is the same it will still work.


Another option is the LO API for Surveys. Make it anyway you want. Check out LuminateExtend on GitHub for a helpful library.



The easiest is to check the Survey ID in the current URL and load custom CSS when you detect the one in question. This would presumably go in the wrapper.


A stock survey URL looks like this:

http://yoursite.org/site/Survey?ACTION_REQUIRED=URI_ACTION_USER_REQUESTS&SURVEY_ID=1234


You can use S334 in a conditional.

[[?~1234~::~[[S334:SURVEY_ID]]~::<br /><br/><style>your custom stuff</style><br /><br/>::<br /><br/><!-- Nothing --><br /><br/>]]
