Surveys - skipping questions

Options

Does anyone know if the Convio survey tool can skip (or hide) a question? For example, if the first question is: Do you have a car? if the answer if Yes, I want the user to see this question: Whay kind of car do you have? If the answer is No, I want them to skip to the next question and not see the one in between.

I have seen this used on a Convio survey, but I don't know if it was a custom piece or if there is something in the functionality that will allow me to do this.

  • Hey Megan,

    Do you still have the example handy somewhere? Might be able to tell how it is done.

    To my knowledge, there is not a way to do this with the Convio survey tool.

    I don't know if Convio CMS offers anything along these lines.

    You might be able to craft some Javascript to do it but it would be pretty intensive effort to set up (esp if you wanted to use it again).

    JDRF did this in a Convio survey - . If you look at questions 5 and 9, you will see a second part to the question depending on your answer. I took a look at the code but couldn't quite tell how this was accomplished.

    Hey Meghan (sorry for spelling yr name wrong before!),

    So here is the original survey this was built from

    http://takeaction.jdrf.org/site/Survey?ACTION_REQUIRED=URI_ACTION_USER_REQUESTS&SURVEY_ID=2160

    Basically, they copied the survey HTML code out, and then manipulated the HTML as they wanted, adding in javascript to do the dependent questions, and then renumbered the questions. So while they did it in Convio, it's not really anything that Convio automatically did for them.

    Thanks Adam (would be great if Convio would make some enhancements to the survey functions!)
