I installed the plugin, but gives errors in the web links. links stop working. I tried it with different themes and is the same. I had to uninstall the plugin. Is there a solution?
Hello,
How do you mean ‘web links’? The links no longer works on your website? Please send me your website URL via my profile page mail sender to check the issue.
Regards,
Pantherius
what does not work is when I copy the code and stick it on a page. that’s when some links do not work correctly, especially using Safari and Firefox.
Another question is: how can I do that the survey does not take me the whole page?
Just got your email and checked your website. You using the survey in modal mode, so it is displayed in front of the content, like a popup. Therefore it is normal, when it’s cover some elements.
You may embed the survey into the content, read more about this here: http://modalsurvey.pantherius.com/documentation/#line11
If you disable the Global Survey checkbox on your Survey edit screen, then you can display it via shortcodes. Shortcodes allows you to set a specified width for the survey. For further details, please check out the documentation above.

Hello,
I have two questions:
1) Can you display the result alone on a different page than the poll? 2) If it’s possible, does the result refresh automatically?
Thank you!
Hello,
1. Yes, it can be displayed via shortcodes based on the survey ID on any page / post.
2. It needs a page refresh / reload to show the actual results. That means, if the results and the survey are on the same page and you filled out the survey, the result will be refreshed when you reload the page. By the way, the plugin offer an option to redirect the browser after the completion of the poll.

Pantherius
Thanks! Last question. Is it possible to add custom CSS?
You’re welcome!
Adding custom CSS code is possible by editing the plugin’s CSS file at the moment.

Hello,
I have to questions:
1) Is it possible to prevent users doing a survey or quiz two times (e.g. by checking for the IP or cookie?) (of course this can be cheated but I just want to have a little hurdle) Edit: Oh I found this point your documentation, it seems to be an option in the general settings.
2) I want to make a poll where you can win something if you participate. So you have to enter an eMail-adress which has to be saved/exported with the poll data – but not displayed in the results page / statistics. Afterwards, when the results of the poll are displayed, the people should be able to sign up for a newsletter (MailChimp) with the given email address. Do you think I can archive this without have to do changes in the plugin source code?
Thanks!
Hello veganz,
1. Yes, the plugin can display the survey once for the same users using cookies. (As you mentioned, it is in the General Settings)
2. Definitely yes. You can ask for the email and / or name, then automatically sign up for your MailChimp list. The participants details are visible on the admin.

Hello,
I need Picture Interest Career Survey on my WP website. The question and answer is totally from this book (http://transitioncoalition.org/blog/assessment-review/picture-interest-career-survey-pics/) and users can choose more than 1 answers. At the end of the quiz survey, the answer will show what is your interest (R-Realistic, S-Social, I-Investigative, E-Enterprising, A-Artistic and C-Conventional).
The quiz should have progress button and also users can print the result.
Please help me.
*the site still under construction
Hello,
It is possible to choose multiple answers and assign scores to the answers, then display a specific message or redirect the browser based on the scores. However, you can also include images instead of text answers, currently with fixed width. Probably you need a minor, one-line modification to display the images in larger sizes.
As you can see on the demo page, progress bar is optionally can be shown.

I am wondering what is the point of the updates every second day, can you just make this plugin more friendly and simple to use, it is full of confusing features, high load, customers always looking for simple, easy to use, and fast plugin, those are the keys which make you generate real sales
Hello,
As you can read in the changelog, I’m trying to add those minor additional features, that has been requested from my clients. I’m sure, the plugin doesn’t generate high load, so please check your website with any performance analyzer, like P3 Profiler.
Sorry to hear that, the plugin isn’t clear enough or user-friendly for you. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
Best regards,
Pantherius
The problem too many features in one plugin, if it is more simple it will be more friendly to use, you have lots of creative ideas, your problem you want to put them in one place, taking lots of time and efforts from you, by the end sales rate would never be same as someone created a simple basic wordpress template and generate thousands of sales, it is an advice, do not put all your time and efforts in one place, try to create something new and keep updating this plugin when it is needed, i meant to say you can create template called wordpress Survey for example and include such features on it, since you have time and working hard, you should make good sales, try to crate new creative items, I feel sorry for all that time you are spending when compare it to some other authors who spent half of your time and making $$$millions $$$ sales
do not worry, I do not mean to hurt is just advice
Thank you for your great advice, I’ll keep it in my mind.
However, the plugin offer many features, you don’t need to use all of them. The success depends on several things, unfortunately sometimes doesn’t enough to create a simple plugin to achieve that. But you’re right, it is important to keep it as simple as possible.
Anyway, I’m satisfied with the current sales since it is my best-seller plugin and I never got a feedback about any user-friendly issues, except from you. I’ll try to find out a way to make it more better, simple and user-friendly in the future.
Thanks for your time to give me your feedback!

Hi Pantherius,
I would like to use this plugin as the voting system for an online competition/award, so I wouldn’t be asking questions, just requesting that visitors select whom they think should win the competition. Is this possible with this plugin?
Also, Is it possible to display multiple polls on a single page?
Thanks
Hello tadamu,
Sorry, but it is not really clear:
“I wouldn’t be asking questions, just requesting that visitors select whom they think should win the competition”
That’s definitely a question, that will be:
Q: Who is the best?
A1: Company1
A2: Company2
A3: Company3
Yes, you can display any number of polls on the same page.
Best regards,
Pantherius
Hello Pantherius,
I bought the plugin. As I mentioned earlier, I want to use the plugin as a voting system on my site. In order to this I need to run multiple polls on one page. I can’t seem to do this as only one poll appears. Can you help?
Hello,
You can insert surveys via shortcodes, like:
[modal_survey id=”12345”]
To embed it, just add style=”flat”:
[modal_survey id=”12345” style=”flat”]
Replace the id with your survey ID. In this case, please uncheck the Global Survey checkbox to avoid multiple display of the same survey.
It is also possible to automatically embed the poll into all of your pages or posts with the Mode select box in the survey edit screen.
The shortcode is visible on the top-right corner when you editing the poll.
Regards,
Pantherius
Thanks Pantherius,
I’ve set it up.
I was wondering if there is a way to integrate the survey with my mailing list, so that people must submit their names and email details before completing the survey/vote?
You’re welcome!
Just enable the Participants Form, that will displayed before show the results. There are many Newsletter Service Providers supported, please check it in the survey edit screen.

Pantherius
Hi,
I have created a personality test using the plugin. The surveys contains 40+ questions which are all ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answers. I have managed to display the results in a radar chart on the final page toward the 4 outlined personality types – but ideally what I want is to redirect to 4 different pages (all containing this radar chart) depending on what the highest scoring personality type is. So for example I can use text copy explaining the personality type they are and images etc.
Would you be able to let me know if this is possible, and how you would go about it?
Thanks,
Hello,
You can create conditions based on the category / personality scores. (added in the last update)
If the newly created personalities doesn’t show up in the conditions list, please save and refresh the page on your admin.
It needs a simple trick to achieve this. Probably you already know the maximum scores, so you can easily define conditions, like this:
if personality1 score > 50 then redirect to xy
Best regards,
Pantherius
hi thanks for this, but the problem for us was we just needed the page redirecting based on what scored highest, as multiple personality types could be over a certain point score. Is there any way of achieving this?
Hi Pantherius, another question re.color. I’m trying to fix the color for a Radar Chart. The short code I have at the moment is [survey_answers id=”2077718340” style=”radarchart” data=”score” bgcolor=”#5BC0DE” color=”#000000” uid=”true” hidecounter=”no” hidequestion=”no”] but every time it’s refreshed it appears in a random color. Please can you let me know how to fix the color for a Radar Chart please.
Thanks
Hello,
New version of the plugin will be available in the next 48 hours, that will solve the chart color issue and also provides a solution to set conditions for the highest and lowest personality scores.
I’ll let you know when the new version has been released.
Best regards,
Pantherius
awesome thanks so much
It’s just released. You’re welcome!
Is there anywhere where I can see a demo of how I use this so I can test it out before I purchase??
The reason I ask is I would like to know the following based on ‘Questionnaire with scores :
If you answer ‘yes’ to a question, you are directed to the next question
If you answer ‘no’, some more questions appear to ask why (sub-questions)
Hello,
However, you may check the Admin Video Demo, it is doesn’t show this feature.
You can create chained questions, just have to specify the question number right after the answer, eg.:
Question1: Do you like this website?
Answer1: Yes
Answer2: No [3]
Question2: Why do you like this website?
Answer1: It is looks awesome!
Answer2: It is very useful for me.
Question3: Where are you from?
Answer1: Europe
Answer2: Asia
Answer3: Other
As you can see, if the user vote for Answer1 (yes) in the Question1, then it will continue with the next question, that is ask about the details. If the user choose ‘No’, then the second question will be skipped.
Is it you are looking for?
Best regards,
Pantherius
Not really
Q1 Are you human YES – NO
If answered yes you move on to Q2
if answered ‘no’, some more questions will appear ONLY based on Q1 eg. Q1A Cat – Q1B Dog – Q1C Mouse… Once Q1AB or C has been answered, only then do you move to Q2
It is the same, when you do this:
Q1: Are you human?
A1: Yes [3]
A2: No
Q2: Who are you?
A1: Cat
A2: Dog
A3: Mouse
Q3: Where are you from?
A1: Europe
A2: Asia
A3: Other
If Q1 answered with YES, then move on to Q3, if the answer is NO, then it will display the Q2.
You can use as many redirection as you wish, so you can specify A1: Cat [4] in Q2, then it will redirect the user to the end without displaying the last question in case of Cat answered for the Q2.
It is an example only, the point is you can control the questions based on the answers. We can call it as subquestions or skipped questions, the results will be the same.
Regards,
Pantherius
Absolutely marvelous thank you.
You’re very welcome!
I am trying to do this but your plugin is very confusing
Sorry, do you have any question here? Confusing what?
I have managed to sort the problem, it’s me and not your plugin – DOH!
Hi,
Back again! So I purchased your plugin and I have two questions:
1) Is there is any way to display multiple questions instead of just one? 2) How do I prevent the animation for the questions? There doesn’t seem to be an option in the settings for Survey Options.
Thank you!
Hello,
1. No, it can display one question at the same time currently.
2. You can set the animation time in the survey form edit screen. However, it can be reduced to 0.1sec only, you can manually type 0 instead of the 0.1 value.
Best regards,
Pantherius
Thank you for the quick response!
You’re very welcome!
I have one more question..
Is there any way to display the cumulative score of an individual in text format? I’ve tried doing [survey_answers id=”809060037” style=”plain” data=”score”] but the “plain” chart seems to only work when you assign a qid and a aid.
The goal is to display how many points the individual earned over how many points there are over all.
Just working on this feature, hopefully it will be added in the next release.
Regards,
Pantherius
Hello,
Just would like to letting you know, the new version has been released. The result shortcode now support score, average-score and rating via text format as well.

Pantherius
Thanks for the update!
You’re very welcome!
Hi there,
I want to implement a score based personal stress test like this here:
http://www.stress-no-stress.ch/checkp/checkp.php?language=deWith many questions and a score for analysis. Is this possible?
Thanks,
Simon
Hello Simon,
Yes, you can assign scores to the answers, create as many questions as you wish then visualize the result on charts.
Check out the personality test example here: http://modalsurvey.pantherius.com/personality-test-with-individual-chart

Hi there,
I was wondering if this plugin can be made to integrate with buddypress?
Hello,
I didn’t tested it with BuddyPress yet, but it is already on my TODO list to check it and make it supported. At the moment, it is support bbPress.
Best regards,
Pantherius
Hi Pantherius Team,
Im very interested in buying the plugin, can you tell me if this scenario is feasible:
- Im trying to build a “quiz” with x multiple choice questions. (more choices are possible) - Each choice within a question should be assigned with x points - Depending on the amount of points the user will see a landing page (0-5 page1, 6-10 page2, etc…) - I would also like to show the user the visualisation of his data and eventualy of all of the data provided so far..
thx for any infos!
Hello,
Yes, you achieve that. Here are the related sections in the documentation to read more:
- Answer Options – Assign Scores
- Question Options – Multiple Answers
- Conditions – Redirect or Display a message based on the scores
- Display Individual Chart at the end of the Quiz
Best regards,
Pantherius
Hello,
wow, the plugin works great..! thumbs up!
however we came up with a scenario that sems to be too complex for the plugin. Please correct me if you have an idea how to deal with it:
its basically the same scenario as above but we would like to group the questions under categories and visualize the categories and not each question.
Questions: cat1 – question1, question2, question3 cat2 – question1, question2, question3 cat3 – question1, question2, question3
Visualization cat1, cat2, cat3
thx in advance for any infos!
Hello,
Thank you, happy to hear that you like it. The questions can be move under categories by simply adding the category name next to the question text in brackets:
“Do you like this website? [Feedback]”
In this case the scores from this question will be summarized under the Feedback category / group. Each question can be categorized once, so you can’t define multiple categories for the same question at the moment yet. But you can specify as much category as you wish with different questions, eg.:
Question1[cat1]
Question2[cat2]
Question3[cat1]
Question4[cat3]
Question5[cat1]
Use data=”score” in the results shortcode to display a chart based on the category scores. Please check out the documentation for more detailed instructions.
Best regards,
Pantherius
Wow,
great response time 
Great that its possible, works like a charm.. !!!
Two more questions:
1. How to display the individual chart (based on the questions the user just answered) on the page, that the user will be redirected to.
2. Is there a way to give the users the possibility to post feedback to the questions without affecting the score.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks.
1. Use uid=”true” and data=”score” in the answer shortcode
2. No, it is not a feature yet. You may add a form to the redirected page with any 3rd party form builder plugin to get this type of feedback.
Regards,
Pantherius
Dear Pantherius,
so far so good.. trying to push the possibilities of the plugin to the limit.
Any chance to do the redirects depending on the categories scores?
if (cat1score>x & cat2score>y & cat3score >z ) than redirect to page x
or do anything with the conditionals depending on the categories scores?
i also have a problem with displaying the form (name & email) before displaying the results.. any idea or known issues with that? could it have sth. to do with the redirect? Its simply being omitted.
regards!
Hello,
Since the categories created in runtime, creating conditions based on the category scores is not a feature yet. However, it is a really good idea, so I’ll considering to find out the way to implement this option. Furthermore, adding complex conditions is also the part of the future plans only. ( like AND conditions in your example )
I know there are still many possibilities in the plugin and I’ll try to implement as much as possible.
At the moment, you can do the redirect by category scores with a customization.
No, I don’t know about any issues with the participants form. Please send me your website URL with login details via my profile page mail sender and I’m happy to check it.
Best regards,
Pantherius
Hi creativeconstruction,
Just would like to inform you, the new version of the plugin just released, that will allows you to set conditions by the category scores.
Best regards,
Pantherius
First question: How do I delete the question “Do you like this website?” that always comes as the first question with every new survey? It doesn’t have the option to delete.
Second question: Can user leave the survey half way and then just continue next time they log in?
Third question After the survey is completed I want to show the user their answers, but only their own answers, not the statistics for all participants. Can that be done?
Thank you!
Hello,
- The first is a sample question, that you can edit when you start building your survey. Alternatively, close the question accordions, then reorder with dragging the second question to the place of the first one. Save the survey, refresh the page then you can delete the second question (that was the first before it has been rearranged)
- No, it is not a feature at the moment, but really good idea. Just added to my TODO list.
- Yes, use the Conditions to display individual chart at the end, read more on the following link: Conditions

Hi,
I am currently using the free version of this plugin and for some reason, the quiz will randomly disappear from the page that I have put it on. It seems to happen whenever I make an edit and will only show again if I reset the quiz. What can I do to make sure the quiz doesn’t go away? Are there any particular triggers that makes the quiz disappear?
Thank You
Hello,
First of all, please use the free version support forum for questions about the free version. The survey automatically displayed once for the same users to avoid duplication and multiple votes in the free version. This option can be set in the premium version.
Regards,
Pantherius
I have a client that wants us to add a survey/poll to their site which is easy enough, but they want an area for comments that would be sent to a private party only and the result of the poll to be public. Is something like that possible?
Hello,
The result of the survey can be included to any page / post with text or chart format. Also, one open text answer can be added to each question.
But “area for comments that would be sent to a private party” is not really clear for me. I guess, it is not possible at the moment.
Regards,
Pantherius
Thanks for the speedy response!
To try to be more clear. They’re looking for an area like a “text area” or “text imput” that would be sent to a specific email.
You’re welcome!
Yes, I see now. However, the plugin provides a text input as I mentioned before, but it doesn’t send the answer by email.
Regards,
Pantherius
Sounds good, thank you very much!
You’re welcome!
Hi, this looks like a good option for my current project, is it possible to add an email sign-up option on poll completion?
Hello,
The plugin already provide the option to ask for the participants name and email address, then pass them to your existing newsletter campaign. (MailChimp, Active Campaign, Benchmark, etc.)
See the full list and the detailed description in the documentation here.
Best regards,
Pantherius
Oh excellent, thank you!
You’re very welcome!
Hi pantherius,
I want to embed Modal Survey to posts end. It works fine with posts but also it is displayed on each pages end. I’m your customer from yesterday so correct me if I’m wrong, but there is no similar feature for pages on Survey Options. I added shortcode on a single page and no objection. Can you please guide me how can I disable Modal Survey on pages end? I didn’t mention that it is visible on ends only with Global Survey enabled what force me to display Modal Survey on entire website in such a shape, just take a look: http://s12.postimg.org/l9a531d2l/sc1_v2.gif. Duplicated first question is displaying on the top of my website, each post and page. So far I disabled Global Survey and I’m having page with shortcode to display it with no inconvenience. I also tried to apply shortcode or even a link with the survey to ad area below post from my theme panel without a result. Those ad areas don’t apply a shortcode and I noticed this before with different plugin. What’s more I thought it can be caused by a plugin so I disabled all of them on my list except Survey Option. Nothing has changed. How can I fix it?
Hello,
Please send me your website URL with login details via my CodeCanyon profile page mail sender and I’m happy to check the issue directly on your website.
Regards,
Pantherius
Hallo, Pantherius, Your work looks great and works great! I purchased this plugin but I notice now that I can’t use it for wat I want. But what I need is a personal questionnaire where at the end the person gets his results on screen and send by email. The results are only pieces of text depending on the score (1-5 scale). Do you add this features in the future? And know do you know an alternative?
thank you!
Hello,
Thank you!
It is already possible to display an individual score chart at the end of the survey with the conditions:
Individual Charts – Modal Survey Documentation
If you would like to display texts only, it can be also achieved by the conditions. Sending the results by email is not a feature yet, but I’ll considering to add in any of the upcoming releases.
Regards,
Pantherius
Like give stronger weighting to repsonses from registered users and display at the top, and underneath, results from the unregistered masses. Is this possible?
Thanks, Brian.
- I assume unregistered visitors can submit
Hello Brian,
However, the survey can be displayed to logged in users only, the results can’t be displayed by the status of the visitors at the moment. (registered or not)
I’ll considering to add this feature in any of the upcoming releases.
Best regards,
Pantherius
Hello, thanks for the reply.
I think a misunderstanding, I would like to display the same results to everyone, but have on the page the results from registered users at the top, maybe with bigger fonts etc, and same results but from unregistered, underneath. I hope that makes sense.
You’re welcome!
I see now. Displaying different content for the members is not related with the plugin. You can achieve that with any free 3rd party plugin, see the first and the second results on the following search:
User Specific Content for WordPress – Google Search
Important to note, you need a plugin that support shortcodes in the user specific content, so you can use the Modal Survey results shortcode.
Best regards,
Pantherius
I think still misunderstanding – everyone sees the same page. I will think of a better way to explain or maybe make a sketch.
I guess you would like to display it like:
Members:
Hello Member!
chart1 with results
Guest:
Hello Guest!
chart1 with results
Am I wrong?
No like:
Hello world!
10 members like cats
12 members like dogs
23 guests like cats
32 guests like dogs
The idea is that member results are more important, to encourage people to register.
Since you would like to display different results regarding to your example, I have to say again, the plugin doesn’t able to display the votes by members (registered) and guests (non-registered). It displays the cumulated results, that includes all votes, like:
Hello worlds!
33 users like cats
44 users like dogs
Best regards,
Pantherius
Yes I had my doubts but thought I would ask.
It might be an interesting feature though. One set of results is more credible, sort of premium, more trustworthy, plus attracts people to register if their voice is more important. For most web sites these days one of the most difficult challenges is getting people to register.
The other unregistered set is less credible, more risk of spammers etc. Anyway maybe you would consider this for the future.
Thanks.
Yes, it is definitely a good idea and I’ll considering to add this feature in any of the next releases.
Best regards,
Pantherius
for analyzing data, do we get to know from which urls(pages/posts on the site) user are giving their feedback. Also is it possible to display different survey/feedback questions on different posts/pages / categories etc.. I am using wordpress. Please advise.
Hello,
The analysis is based on the survey at the moment, that doesn’t provide the URL. You can embed the whole survey to any page / post, but including individual question only from the survey is not a feature.
Best regards,
Pantherius
