'UploadedFileLink' format suddenly changed in triggered email

Until recently, the following html code piped into the body of triggered email message worked just fine: LINKRecently, it stopped working and now, to work, it should be prepended with "https://wlu.ca1.qualtrics.com/" as followshttps://wlu.ca1.qualtrics.com/${q://QID78/UploadedFileLink}">LINKThe new format appears as if "?format=urlencode" was applied, that is as if "${q://QID78/UploadedFileLink?format=urlencode}"I am wondering if the change was made by Qualtrics?I do not mind the new format and even find it more suitable, but do not like sudden changes mystery :-)

How do I get an audio clip to stop once another clip is being played?

I am using audio embedded in HTML from google drive. Looks something like this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xbsducvqwoub/preview" width="440" height="80">. I want to have three audio clips on a page, and I want only one playing at a time even if the pause button is not pressed. How can I adjust this or add Java that accounts for audio embedded via Google drive? I recently added this on for media from my library which worked: "jQuery("audio").bind("play",function (){ jQuery("audio").not(this).each(function (index, audio) { audio.pause();"I am also experiencing a playback issue where only one or two clips will play once I press the button, sometimes they do not play at all. Maybe the player window is too small or the clickbox is misaligned or something? Thank you ahead of time for the help!

Calculate scores based on survey questions and assign highest score

Hi - I'm trying to automate some segmentation work that gets done based on survey questions. Basically, I have a number of segments, and the score for each one is calculated by multiplying the responses to specific questions by different values. Then, whichever segment has the highest score is the segment that the user is assigned to.I found this question that was previously asked that's quite similar, bu I'm not sure how to set up the calculations - would this be a formula variable or is there any way to set the calculation up before any responses are recorded?Identify the variable with the maximum valueAlso curious if anyone might know how to do this in Javascript.Thanks!

Open link in separate tab

Hi all,I have a 2 fold question. I am working on a survey, which is displayed as part of an intercept. At some point one of the survey has a multiple choice question asking what would the respondent like to do next. 1. Take a survey or 2. Speak to an agent. If opt 2 is selected I have display logic that displays a text question with a piece of text saying "please wait while we redirect you". What is meant to happen next is that after this question the person is taken to end of survey. As part of the question I have included a piece JS code (code below) that will open the website contact us page in a separate tab. It is a requirement that the contact us page opens in a separate tab/window.This is all working... for a while... without any known trigger, It "seems" that the survey gets corrupted and the all process fails when the recipient selects the opt2 and click next, which should trigger the process I explained above. Mainly it seems that the JS code, which allows to open the hyperli

Change value of progress bar manually and show it in verbose text

Hi all, I want to change the number on the progress bar of some pages manually. I am able to move the bar so that it represents the number that I want with the code below, but it the text in the progress bar doesn't update. jQuery("div.ProgressBarFill").css("width", "80%");I have the following code on the look and feel header, so that the progress bar shows the number. With this, the number that it shows is the one that qualtrics calculates, not the one that I impose with the code above. Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function() { jQuery("table.ProgressBarContainer tbody tr td:eq(0) label").text(jQuery("#ProgressBarFillContainer span").text()); });Does anyone know what to change so that the text in the progress bar updates accordingly? Thank you!

I'm trying to do a digit span test where the subject types the key d or k depending on what they see on the screen. I have the code that allows for the subject to go to the next page when they press these keys. Issue is I want the D to send the subject to the page that says correct and the K to send the subject to the incorrect one.

Auto-advance to next block after set amount of total time spent on a loop and merge block.

Hi Community,I have a loop & merge block with only 1 (text entry) question in it: ********Count the number of J's in the following string: ${lm://Field/1}********The loop & merge matrix is just 1 column with ~100 rows, each cell containing a string of random characters (e.g., "OJIJSDFOIJSDFOJSD"). Goal: Participants should have exactly 1 minute to answer as many questions (read: get through as many loops) as possible. They won't come anywhere close to getting through all 100 in the 1 minute, though. The timer needs to be cumulative across all loops, so if someone spends 20 seconds on the first loop, and 10 seconds on the second loop, they should only have 30 seconds remaining for all remaining attempts. Then, at the end of the 1 minute, they should be auto-advanced to the next block. Note: I do not want to show the timer on screen.The Problem: I tried using the timer + auto-advance feature, but unfortunately it resets the timer with each successive loop. What I've tried: Banging my hea

Tweet this and Share that?

When customers finish the survey, there will be a "End of Survey" message. In this moment, I want them to be able to share the survey with their friends or post it on a few social media networks. I've found the code from several websites like Facebook.Share Button - Social Plugins - Documentation - Facebook for DevelopersThe problem that I have, is when I paste these code samples, they don't show up in the message. I feel like there's a restriction on my account or I am pasting the wrong kind of code.Any help would be appreciated. The three "Share Now" buttons I want are SMS, Facebook, Twitter.

JSON string saved as embedded data

Hello,I'm having a strange issue parsing JSON in JavaScript within a Qualtrics question. The following code works fine:var obj = '{"name":"John","age":30,"city":"New York"}';document.getElementById("json").innerHTML = JSON.parse(obj).age;That is, it shows "30" for the question, corresponding to the age in the JSON.But weirdly, this doesn't work:var obj = '${e://Field/message}';document.getElementById("json").innerHTML = JSON.parse(obj).age;Here, the embedded data stored in the "message" variable is the exact same string stored in "obj" in the first code block. JSON.parse, however, fails to run. I'm a bit puzzled given that the strings seem to be literally identical; however, I figure that the embedded data must be being parsed in some strange way. I thought somebody here might know what's going on.Many thanks.

Question with custom javascript code not displaying in results?

We coded a question in Javascript for our survey. Previously we've used this question with no glitches (it's the same one copied from a previous project.) Now, it's not showing up in the results files for our new survey even though it's being displayed to participants. I called Qualtrics support, and they confirmed that it's nothing to do with the survey logic, and directed me here. FWIW, I also checked the previous surveys that have used this question (ones where we've downloaded the results with no problem) and all of a sudden, they're not showing it, either. I'm wondering if Qualtrics or JS had an update where they're no longer compatible? I'd really appreciate any advice on the matter. Thank you!

Restrict MM/DD/YYYY date range with Qualtrics date content validation

Hi everyone - I'm using Qualtric's content validation for a date (MM/DD/YYYY) to get survey respondents' birthday. Is there any way to be able to keep this input format and restrict the date range so that people can't choose a date after the current date, and not a date before, say, 01/01/1900? Thanks!

two handle sliders - Java Script

Hi, I am trying to put together a survey where I ask for a range using a slider with two handles. then record the high and low number for that question Being new to Java Script i tried to use the code from a previous thread which suggested this web page https://codepen.io/Op_Je_Plaatsman/pen/VdKEam So far I have tried to use it in a question but can't get it to display in the question. Wondering how to get it to read results and to display in the question. Currently the code looks like this: Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnready(function() { jquery("#slider-range").slider({ range: true, min: 0, max: 10, step: 1, slide: function( event, ui ) { $( "#min-value").html(ui.values[ 0 ]); suffix = ''; if (ui.values[ 1 ] == $( "#max-price").data('max') ){ suffix = ' +'; } jquery( "#max-value").html(ui.values[ 1 ] + suffix); } }) });

How to SetEmbeddedData for MC Response to "1" "2"..etc based on response selected

I have setup my survey where the first question is a MC question with multiple responses. Ex: If you would like to learn more about the following food items, please click on the different categories below. When you are done, please click "Continue Report" .applebananapearContinue ReportWhen a participant selects one of these responses, they are taken to a page where they can read everything about that food item and then go back to the main page. The participant selects "continue report" to move to the next set of questions.I would like to know what items the participant has selected to read. So if they selected apple, I would like to have "1" in my data set. In my survey, in the main question, I have set the following code to my JS box:Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function(){ Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData ( 'Apple' , '1' ) Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData ( 'Banana' , '1' ) Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData ( 'Pear' , '1' )});However, I do not see "1" in my

Stop timer from resetting when custom validation is not met.

Hi y’all, I have a survey where participants enter in ideas to a form with about 35 text entry boxes for 15-minutes. This timer is set up to count down from 15-minutes and move forward automatically once the timer reaches zero. I also have a custom validation set up where they must enter in at least 10 text boxes to continue on with the survey. However, the problem is if they enter in less than 10, the page stops them (good) but the timer starts over back at 15-minutes (bad) and they can’t move forward for another 15-minutes. How do I stop the timer from resetting when the custom validation is not met?

How to display choice count dynamically in question text for likert, single answer question type

Custom code implemented to force accordion on desktop BUT it will not collapse once expanded

Context: I have a question that needed to be formatted as a collapsible list (industry expands to select sub-industry). Although drop down is clearly a better question type, my client has insisted on this format. As such, I have set up a block that has 1 matrix question for each industry (so each matrix has 1 statement) and the scales includes all the sub-industries (can vary from 1-5). Then, I added custom code to always force the matrix to display as an accordion style for desktop. However, the accordion must first display collapsed and then the respondent can choose to expand/collapse. I had a developer help me implement code so that the accordions are always first collapsed. Issue: Once the accordion for that question is selected/expanded it will not collapse and remain expanded. The developer I worked with said that it would be too much work to try to figure out how allow force the accordion questions to start collapsed and then allow for both expanding and collapsing.
