Custom Code

Hi there, I am creating a question with a very long drop down list. Is it possible to have an autofill option? I.e the user starts typing the answer and it reduces the options?

Is it possible to add in a pdf file based on a user id that the respondent selects. I have about 2,500 different pdf files that I would like for my respondents to review and each would need to drop into the survey based on an id that will be loaded into the survey.

Hi all, I am trying to select default answers based on embedded data. The problem I have is two-fold: First, and most importantly: I cannot figure out how to select different values for several different drop-down options in the same Matrix Table. I found the following online, which lets me select the SAME answer on all dropdowns in the same question (in this example, the second from the bottom): if($('QID17')) {$$('#QID17 select').each(function(s){ s.value = (s[s.length-2].value); }) } But how do I adapt this to select different answers for the different drop-downs? Second, my current JavaScript is long, using "IF embeddeddataX = 1 THEN set answer to 1, IF embeddeddataX = 2 THEN set answer to 2, ..." I am looking for a more elegant way to use the numeric value from embedded data to set the answer choice. Any help is appreciated!

Would anyone be willing to share the code for this if it can be done. Thank you!

I know that I can set the value of an embedded variable via Javascript like this: Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData("myvariable","newvalue") and the current loop number within a Loop & Merge can be access in the survey with: ${lm://CurrentLoopNumber} Is it possible to reset the loop count with Javascript?

I'm trying to remove the labels from a slider in a survey question (i.e. the numbers on top of each gridline). I've gone to "Inspect" on Google Chrome to see the relevant CSS snippet and I keep getting "jQuery('#QID29') > div.Inner.BorderColor.HSLIDER > div > fieldset > div > div > div.labels-container > ul.labels" as the selector. But I can't seem to make the numbers disappear (I've tried making the font white, since that's the background for my survey, making the visibility be hidden, setting the font size equal to 0, etc., and nothing seems to work). I may be well off so if anyone knows just a simple way of removing the labels that'd be great. Thanks!

Hi, community! I am new to Qualtrics and in the process of coding my survey. I have an initial question that looks at purchasing behavior or 7 particular brands and I will like to randomize 3 of the 7 brands into a subsequent question - however, I want to pull in the lowest count on complete surveys in the event that someone has purchased more than these 3 brands - I believe I will need to complete this task utilizing some custom coding - any ideas? Thanks!

So I have flatpickr working in qualtrics with this code: ! And it returns a value of something like this: 2018-05-30 to 2018-05-31 I want to take the returned value split it at the " to " and then convert each of those values to epoch time so I can subtract them and find the number of days in the range. So far I have this: ! But I can't seem to get the slipt to work, most of the code was borrowed from another post, sorry my JS is not great.

Hi! I am working on setting the custom validation for the below questions: ! The purpose is to add logical validation like: 1. Domestic Executive Employee number should be lower or equal to Total Corporation Executive Employee number 2. Domestic Management Employee number should be lower or equal to Total Corporation Management Employee number 3. Domestic Other Professional Employee number should be lower or equal to Total Corporation Other Professional Employee number 4. Domestic Other Clerical Employee number should be lower or equal to Total Corporation Other Clerical Employee number 5. Sum of Domestic Employees given by level should be less or equal to Total Number for Domestic Employees given in the first question 6. Sum of Total Corporate Employees given by level should be less or equal to Total Number for Total Corporate Employees given in the first question Right now I am doi

I'm using a video in one of my questionnaires but the Video does not automatically resize on mobile devices, but images do? Is there something I can do to make the video resize automatically?

In my survey, I would like to let respondents map certain points on a map, and have the GPS coordinates of these points as data output. Is this possible with Qualtrics? And if so, how?

Hi, I am using the theme "Mountains" for a survey. At the last page of the survey, there is usually a "forward" arrow, which takes the respondent to the end of survey message. However, with this theme (or if it is something that I have done), I do not get this arrow. I would like to have the arrow so that respondents know that they have finished the survey. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?

Does anyone know some Java script that would align labels on the right in a form? In other words, I'm trying to push the labels right up against the text box entry areas, so that the blank space between the label for the box and the box itself is eliminated as much as possible, like so: Name ___ ___ ___ Mailing Address ___ ___ ___ Thanks for any help you can provide!

I am looking to write basic testing scripts for testing the programming of a survey. I was hoping not to start from scratch and that someone else already has something they are willing to share.

We have a question in a survey that asks respondents to rank 20 different items, but we need the particular functionality/ look of the question to be a drag and drop specifically (not the Rank Order type though, as we need them to drag into different amounts of a money allocation), so the Pick, Group, and Rank question makes the most sense, using 20 groups. But the box for each of those groups for that type of question is too big, whereas we only need (and in fact, require) just one item per group. This is not only inconvenient but also makes answering the question virtually impossible, since the screen does not scroll down when one tries to drag an item down to a group far down the page. Is there a way to adjust the height of these group boxes, so that they only fit one item in each (or at the very least are "shorter")? Alternatively, if there's some other type of question or way to do this, any help would be greatly appreciated! The drag-and-drop functionality is non-negotiable I'm

I want to remove the next button and replace it with the answers as the next button instead. Essentially, when a customer answers the survey on our website, they'll only need to click on the answers instead of clicking the answer and next button to bring you to the next question. I've tried hiding the next button on Advanced CSS but the answers won't be captured due to disabling the next button. I've also tried the javascript below but i didn't want my customers who are answering the questions to be waiting for 5 seconds for every single answer. Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function() { var that = this; var allowedTime = 5 //Set this to the time allowed on page setTimeout(function(){ console.log('Now!!'); that.clickNextButton(); }, allowedTime * 1000 ); }); Can someone help me? I don't have any Javascript background and have called the support team in Qualtrics but no one have got a solution to it.

Hi, Is there a way to HASH embedded data? I'm trying to move from one survey to another with data that is HASHED in the URL and then come back and continue the survey I started? Thanks

I have a matrix table text entry question with 7 statements and 2 scale points. I want the leftmost column of text entry boxes to be filled with the piped text from a previous question, and to be made read-only so that the text cannot be edited. Each text box starting at the top, and ending at the bottom of the column, should be filled with piped text (response) from an earlier question. Is this possible with Javascript?

I'm trying to create a new question as indicated below in the image. ! Is there a way for me to recreate this in javascript? I'm familiar with programming, but unfamiliar with html/css/javascript, so I've tried messing with the Qualtrics API using the Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload function etc but it's beyond my knowledge. Also, if possible, can the compass wheel in the centre instead be controlled by touch/mouse to be a arrow pointing in a specific direction? Thanks in advance!

I've used the following Javascript to add custom text before or after a input textbox in an answer so far: Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() { var inputs = $(this.getQuestionContainer()).select('input[type="text"]'); for (var i = 0; i < inputs.length; i++) { var input = inputs[i]; $(input).insert({before: 'text'}); $(input).insert({after: 'text'}); } }); Now it seems that is not longer working :-( Has anybody an idea how it could be working now? I'm not really a Javascript-crack...

I am trying to change the background color for multiple choices but it is changing only for 2 options and not for all the options. Also the color kinda goes out of the border for the options it is working for. Below is the code and screen shot: li{ background-color:#F1F1F1; color:#63666A; }!

I would like to set a default response for a text entry question to demonstrate the format the text should be in, but I would like the default text to disappear when the respondent clicks on the box. Is this possible? Thank you in advance for your help!

Hello! I had some JavaScript which used to work for hiding the next button until a survey taker had typed "a" then "b" 100 times - but within the last few weeks the code appears to have stopped working. I attach the code as a text file. In addition, here is a link to the survey with the relevant question in: login.qualtrics.com/jfe/preview/SV_d4MYJ8FTOzV44qV?Q_SurveyVersionID=current&Q_CHL=preview If you skip to the fifth page of the survey, then you will see the page where you have to type "ab" 100 times - but at the moment, the next button is showing from the start. In case it helps, to get this javascript code actually count up the amount of "ab"s that are typed, I added an authenticator to the end of the survey, and some embedded datafields at the beginning. ! !

Hey, I have a multiple choice question and instead of having radio buttons to click on I want the answer choices to have the same look as the "Next" button in my survey (which I have already customized to look how I want). I have Javascript set up on the page right now so that when they click the answer choice, it immediately takes them to the next page, so this would just be making it look more pleasing. I have a good amount of page customization, so I don't want to change the Theme to one with box questions. Any ideas?
