Multiple Records for the Same Participant

There is no in-built LimeSurvey function to register a participant and have them be able to edit multiple responses. However, your participants can go to this site https://limesurvey.sdsc.edu/signup/signup.html?survey_id=[Your Survey ID] to register as a participant each time they want to submit a response. Note: This is only necessary if you want your particpants to submit multiple reponses AND have them be able to edit each reponse

Steps to set up Participants Table:

• Initialize Participants Table on your survey
• Add at least one survey participant attribute (click on the Manage attributes module) .
  • Choose an appropriate field description for the additional attribute
  • Enable Show during registration and Mandatory during registration
  • Remember to click save!

Steps for participants to register for your survey:

• Send this url to your participants and have them register at this url each time they want to complete a response
  • url: https://limesurvey.sdsc.edu/signup/signup.html?survey_id=[Survey ID]
    • ex) https://limesurvey.sdsc.edu/signup/signup.html?survey_id=958141 .
  • Participants will receive an email with the survey link to submit one response
  • To submit another reponse with the same email, please enter a unique answer in the additional attribute field that was created
    • In the example above, the additional attribute is ID
• Participants will be able to edit each response using the correponding survey link that was sent to the email they registered with
