Required Question Conditions

KaraHarmet — Tue, 24 Oct 2017 13:53:15 GMT

Hello,

I was wondering if there was a condition to make it so if a question was answered no, the survey would not be able to be submitted. Something similar to the attached survey could be a work-around, but it seems a bit clunky. Please let me know if you have a solution or alternative work-arounds.

Thanks,

Kara

Hi Kara,

Currently this is not a supported feature, we can not make questions required or not based on the answer to the question, or stop the submission of the survey. If a question is required and it is not completed, the survey can not be submitted.

One workaround you could try would be to have a hidden or null question set as read only after the select_one question, and set the question as required and relevant to the answer being no. That way when no is selected in previous question, the hidden/null question becomes required,but can not accept a value so will stop the survey being submitted. The only way to be able to submit would be to change the previous question to yes.

Regards,

Phil.

Thank you so much for the work-around, Philip!
