How to display randomized answers in the same order for following questions? | XM Community
Skip to main content
Hey community

I would like to show all clicked answers(randomized) from "Q2" in Q3 in the same order.

Thx in advance
Please refer to this discussion (something similar)

@knightcell,



Use Carryover to carry over the selected choices in Q2 to Q3. If you turn off randomization on Q3, the randomized order in Q2 will be carried over to Q3.

What if there is an additional option i.e., "None o the above" in Q3, then still this fuctionality will work?


https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/comment/45316#Comment_45316'None of the above' is typically a special case, since it would normally be exclusive in the first question and you would skip the follow-up if it were chosen.
So, when 'None of the above' is needed in the follow-up question, I usually:

  • Add it to the follow-up question as a choice (separate from the carry forward 'None of the above')

  • Use JS to move it to the bottom of the list

  • Under recode, re-label the carry forward 'None of the above' as 'Not used'

I've done the same thing. But still doesn't work, could you please check with below and confirm if I'm missing anything.

https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/comment/45331#Comment_45331Hard to tell just by looking at it, but some possible reasons the second question didn't maintain the randomized order from the first:

  • Second question doesn't have randomization turned off - is using Advanced Randomization

  • JS that is moving 'None' to bottom is also putting the choices in order
