Hello,

I have a question while building a survey on the Qualtrics survey platform, and would appreciate any guidance in how to solve this issue.

There is a page in my survey showing a leaflet, where I used javascript to make the ‘next’ button to appear 15 seconds after the page is open. I did this to ensure people are obliged to examine the leaflet for a minimum of 15 seconds.

However, I would like to disable this delay if the page is visited again. For example, if people come back to this page after proceeding to the next questions, I don’t want them to have to stay in the page for another 15 seconds.

Does anyone know how this can be implemented? Either by javascript or existing functions?

I also looked into the ‘timer’ option already built into the survey platform, but it does not let me distinguish between the first time vs later times the question is viewed.
