We’ve been keeping busy over here at the Q to make sure we provide you the best community experience possible. In this quarter’s newsletter, we cover a ton of great things happening on the community like popular discussions, upcoming events, a member spotlight, and trending product ideas.
Popular Discussions
As always, we have some fantastic discussions happening in the community. Check out the below solutions you may find useful, and then hop on over and add your voice to the discussion.
Developer Corner
- Restricting Special Characters: This solution, provided by wizard @TomG, outlines how to restrict respondents’ answers for open text questions so that they cannot use special characters.
- Enforce Whole Numbers in Constant Sum Questions: You may want to require your respondents to enter whole numbers (i.e. numbers without decimals) in your survey. With this code from @rondev, you can do just that!
- Reducing Size of Multiple Choice Boxes: If you’ve ever wanted to modify the size of multiple choice boxes that appear for survey takers, check out this solution from the combined minds of @CodeCollective and @TomG!
XM Best Practices and Discussions
- Appointment Sign-up Survey with Zoom Links: Thanks to @ClairJ’s sage wisdom, you can use this solution to create an appointment sign-up survey that automatically emails respondents a link to a Zoom meeting for their selected time slot.
- Best Practices for Tracking Daily Survey Results: If you need daily survey results delivered to your inbox, check out this solution from @Radam! You can set up a daily report email that only includes your newly collected responses for that day.

Trending Product Ideas
We’re always blown away by the incredible product ideas you all submit on the community. As a reminder, you can have a direct impact on the Qualtrics product by leaving an idea for our product team to implement in the platform! Take a look at some of this quarter’s top ideas, and then head over to Product Ideas to leave your own.
Current ideas with the most traction:
We think these ideas are awesome, but they need a bit more love before they can be sent to our product team for review. If you think an idea is useful, visit the post and give it an upvote!
- Provide Verification to Respondents That a Survey Is Anonymous: While it’s possible to anonymize your survey so that no identifying information is captured about the respondent, your respondents have no way of verifying that the survey is truly anonymous. This idea lets respondents know that the survey they’re taking is completely anonymous.
- Dynamic Visualization Colors: This idea would allow your report and dashboard visualizations to change colors dynamically based on conditions you set.
- Save CX Dashboard Action Planning Filters: When viewing action plans in a CX Dashboard, this idea would let you save your filters so they are automatically applied the next time you visit your action plans.
Popular ideas that will be implemented in the Qualtrics platform soon:
Stay on the lookout for the following ideas coming to you soon!
- Add the Ability to Sort the User Search Columns: This feature will allow you to sort the users that are returned when a Brand Admin searches for users in their license.
- Include an Undo Button in Dashboards: If you’ve ever accidentally edited a widget in a dashboard, this feature is for you. We’re introducing the ability to undo edits to dashboard widgets.
We value your feedback and would appreciate your thoughts on this quarter’s newsletter. We will use the suggestions you leave in this feedback survey to improve future newsletters!
