Tùy chọn chung
Validation (using regular expressions) (preg_validation)
Description
This option lets you specify a regular expression with which you can validate all the parts of a question.
If any question or subquestion value does not meet the validation requirements, the background colour of the text entry field will be changed to red so that users can easily see which parts of the question need to be corrected. Thus, you can do on-page validation. In this way you will not need to wait for the user to click on the submit button to validate the respective question.
Valid values
- Any valid regular expression
Example

(Sub)question width (subquestion_width)
Description
This value sets the subquestion column width by using a percentage system. For example, if you set this to value 60, then 60 percent of the question width will be used for the subquestion text (the most left column). The remaining width will be equally divided between the answer options.
Valid values
- Any integer value from 1 to 100.
Hide tip (hide_tip)
Description
Most questions will usually include a tip that says "Please choose one of the following options" or a hint text on how to fill out the question. This attribute allows you to turn off or on this tips/hints.
These tips/hints include validation criteria messages (such as min/max number of answers, min/max/equals sum value). If hide_tip is enabled, these messages will be hidden. However, if the user enters invalid data, the tips will appear. They will be coloured in red, getting changed to green once the validation criteria are met.
Available options
- On - the tips/hints are hidden;
- Off (default).
Get order from previous question (get_order_previous_q)
Description
This function is used when you want to keep the order of the subquestions from a previous question the same. This is useful if that question has the randomization option enabled.
Valid values
- Any question code
Random answer order (random_order)
Description
Deprecated for Answer Options : As of 5.5.0, this attribute is not longer used for ordering answer options. Please see QS:Answer_order
This attribute causes LimeSurvey to ignore the existing order of answer options/subquestions, and instead it orders them randomly. This option permits the survey creator to diminish the survey bias. Please note that if a question has subquestions, the order of subquestions will be randomized, not the order of the answer options.
Available options
- Yes - Randomize when participant enters survey
- No (default)
Text input box size (input_box_size)
Description
This function allows you to set the size of the text area (the text input box). By default, LimeSurvey forces the input box to be displayed with a default size. This can be overridden by making use of this function.
To move the box on the next line, you need to increase the size of the wrapper. To do so, increase the value of the text input width attribute.Valid values
- Any numeric value
Checkbox layout (multiflexible_checkbox)
Description
The checkbox layout is available only within the Array (Numbers) question type. If enabled, the survey respondent will be able to answer the subquestions by ticking the right answer via checkboxes.
This attribute will automatically use multiflexible_min=0, multiflexible_max=1, and multiflexible_step=1, regardless the custom values entered in the respective boxes.
Available options
- On
- Off (default)
Example
If enabled, the array (numbers) question type will look like this:
CSS class (css_class)
Description
If you want to add special CSS classes to certain questions, you can enter the CSS class name(s) in this box. Make sure you leave an empty space between different class names.
Valid values
- Any text string with a space between different CSS class names.
According to the W3C, CSS class names can contain only the characters [a-zA-Z, and 0-9] and ISO 10646 characters U+00A1 and higher, plus the hyphen (-) and the underscore (_). They cannot start with a digit, or a hyphen followed by a digit. LimeSurvey encodes CSS classes, but it does not fix it totally.
Minimum value (multiflexible_min)
Description
Multiflexible_min is available only in the Array (Numbers) question type.
This sets the minimum numeric value for the dropdown lists.
Valid values
- Any integer value
- Any number
- Any SGQA code
- Any question code (variable name)
- Any equation, using the Expression Manager syntax, without the surrounding curly braces.
Example
To set a dropdown box starting from 7, set this attribute to 7.
Text inputs (input_boxes)
Description
It is available only for the Array (Numbers) question type.
The answer has to be typed within a text box if this option is enabled. The step value will not be used. The respondents can submit a numerical value as answer.
The minimum and maximum values can also be set up from the question display options.
Otherwise, the survey participants will have to choose from a dropdown list the answer option to the question.
Available options
- On - the input box is used
- Off (default) - the dropdown list is used
Step value (multiflexible_step)
Description
Only available in Array (Numbers) question type. Sets the numeric step value for the dropdown lists.
Example
To set a dropdown box starting at the number 2, and going to 10 in 2's (ie: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10); set this attribute to 2.
Maximum value (multiflexible_max)
Description
Multiflexible_max is available only in the Array (Numbers) question type.
This sets the maximum numeric value for the dropdown lists.
Valid values
- Any integer value
- Any number
- Any SGQA code
- Any question code (variable name)
- Any equation, using the Expression Manager syntax, without the surrounding curly braces.
Example
To set a dropdown box from 1 to 10, type in this box "10".
Relevance help for printable survey (printable_survey_relevance_help)
Description
If you wish to print a survey, you can also print the relevance equations for each question. But, if you wish to offer instead an explanation rather than the expression on the printed form, fill in this box with the text explanation for the relevance equation.
Valid values
- Any text and/or numbers you wish to be displayed on the printable form.
Đầu vào
Input maximum characters (input_max_characters)
Description
The following option allows you to type in a numerical value that will represent the maximum number of characters that can be entered by the survey respondents in the answer text box(es) of the respective question.
Valid values
- Any numerical value
Example
- If you wish the survey participants to type in a short and concise answer, introduce within the input maximum characters field a small number (e.g., 10-15).

Minimum answers (min_answers)
Description
This function can be used to ensure that a user selects at least a certain number of answers in a multiple choice question.
Valid values
- Any integer value above 0
- Any number
- Any SGQA code
- Any question code (variable name)
- Any equation, using ExpressionScript syntax, without surrounding curly braces.
Example
If set to X (a random number), the users can submit the survey form if they select at least X checkboxes. If this option is utilised for ranking questions, this ensures that at least three items are ranked before allowing the respondent to submit the answers/survey.
Please note that if you use this attribute with Ranking questions, you have to set the question to non-mandatory. Otherwise, all the items need to be ranked which is counter-intuitive if you decide to use the min_answers function too.
Maximum answers (max_answers)
Description
It can be used to limit the total number of answers a user can select in a multiple choice question.
Valid values
- Any number value
- Any SGQA code
- Any question code (variable name)
- Any equation, using ExpressionScript syntax, without surrounding curly braces.
Example
If set to 2, the user will only be able to check at most two checkboxes or one checkbox + fill the "Other" field (if any). For the Ranking question type, the participant would be able to select maximum two items.
Randomization group name (random_group)
Description
It places the questions into a specified randomization group, all questions included in the specified group being displayed in a random order to the survey respondents.
You can find a sample survey using randomization group name in ExpressionScript sample survey.
Valid values
Just enter any string you like (for example: 'group1'). All question which have set the same string within the randomization group name box will have their place in the survey randomized (=randomly exchanged among each other).
Preview
To preview the questions use the preview survey instead of the preview question group function, as the second has been reported to not show the questions in a randomized order.
Question validation equation (em_validation_q)
Description
This is an equation that is used to validate the entire question (e.g, all of its parts collectively for a multi-answer question). If the question fails the validation criteria, then em_validation_q_tip message will be displayed (it uses the CSS style .error). This tip uses the .em_q_fn_validation CSS style, which is hidden by default within template.css.
The main difference between this feature and the subquestion validation equations (em_validation_sq option) is that for this feature, if the question (or question parts) fail validation, then an error message could be shown. For the subquestion validation, each text entry cell (e.g., in an array question type, but it can also be applied to single entry question types) will be styled so that the background color is (light) red.
Valid values
- Any equation that makes use of the ExpressionScript syntax, without surrounding curly braces.
Example
- You want to collect demographic information from users via a multiple short text question, and you want to validate that the user has entered a valid email address and phone number.
This example shows how the question looks with invalid answers:
And here is what it looks like with one invalid answer:
Here is how you edit a question to enter that information:
And here is part of the Show Logic File output that lets you check the accuracy of your expression and ensure that there are no syntax errors:
As you can see, the validation equation tests that both the email and phone number are either empty or match a regular expression filter.
The validation tip only shows the warning message if the phone or email appears invalid.
If you wish to import the example from above into your LimeSurvey installation, download the following .lsq file: Em_validation_q_example.zip.
Tip for whole question validation equation (em_validation_q_tip)
Description
If you are using the question validation equation, you can use this box in order to display an optional message as question tip on how the question has to be filled out.
Valid values
- Any string or equation that makes use of the ExpressionScript syntax.
Example
See the example from the question validation equation wiki section- it shows how the tip can be tailored to show which parts of a multiple short text question fail the validation criteria.
Sub-question validation equation (em_validation_sq)
Description
This is an equation that is used to validate each subquestion (text field) individually. Any text field that does not pass these validation conditions will have its background color turned pink (using the .em_sq_fn_validation CSS style) to highlight the error. Note that this is available in addition to the regular expression-based validation option.
Valid values
Any equation that makes use of the ExpressionScript syntax, without surrounding curly braces.
Examples
For example, if you want to allow only numbers that are a multiple of 3 as answers, the equation would be:
(this / 3) == floor(this/3)
The reserved variable this is automatically replaced by a reference to the active text entry cell.
Tip for sub-question validation equation (em_validation_sq_tip)
Description
If you are using em_validation_sq, this is an optional message/tip that will be displayed if the introduced answer is incorrect.
Valid values
- Any string
Example
- Continuing the example of validating emails, the tip might be "Please enter valid email addresses."
