Where can i change survey name ?
Hello,
The plugin using the survey name as a unique ID and it is visible just for you on the admin area to identify the survey. Therefore it is not possible to modify later.

Hello. I am interrested to use this plugin, but i need some answers on the following (its for municipality use in Denmark.
Is it possible to make a survey, so every survey answers will be unique. This means that every ended surveys have to be unique and can be printet out, so the votes in every survey dont affect other surveys..
Hello,
The plugin provides the option to see all participants votes individually for each surveys. However, it can’t print out yet, exporting function is just under development.
Currently, you can export the aggregated results only. Anyway, you can create unlimited surveys and doesn’t affect each other.

I’m trying to style the poll answers using the custom css option, but although the poll shortcode is in the sidebar and I have cleared cookies, the poll question doesn’t show.
Hello,
Please check the F.A.Q. in the documentation, that can help you: http://modalsurvey.pantherius.com/documentation/#line13
If the issue still exists, please send me your website URL with login details via my profile page mail sender and I’m happy to check it.

Thanks for that, toggling the “global” setting seemed to do the trick.
Happy to hear that, you’re welcome!
I am trying to use this in a sidebar, using shortcodes in a text widget. What settings do I need to use to make sure the answers only show after somebody has voted?
Hello,
You can redirect the user after completed the survey to a page, that display the answers via shortcode.
Regards,
Pantherius
Thanks for the swift reply. Is redirection the only option? I don’t want to send visitors to a different page since the poll will be used in the sidebar, I want to let people get on with whatever they were doing, but equally I am after the conventional behavior of only seeing the poll results once somebody has voted. Is there really no way to achieve this at present? It is a pretty standard behavior you can see on most websites that use polls in sidebars and is a really useful feature to have available.
You’re welcome!
Yes, I understand, but I’m trying to make this plugin different than others. I agree it is quite standard behavior for other polls, but I didn’t get any request for this feature yet. Certainly, I’ll add it to my TODO list and hopefully it will be the part of the upcoming releases. Alternatively, if you using score based survey, it is possible to display the individual results at the end of the poll.
By the way, we can achieve it with some trick at the moment. You may add the results shortcode into a div element below the survey. Set style=”display:none”, then add a one-line JavaScript code to the thank you message to make the result div visible:
HTML:<div class="ms-res" style="display:none">[survey_answers id="121234344"]</div>JS:
jQuery(".ms-res").css("display","block");
Is it something that fits to your needs?
Regards,
Pantherius
Oh, thank you, that almost does it, except that instead of the js executing it is just displayed straight under the message. Shouldn’t I be wrapping it in a `<script type=”text/javascript”>` or something?
I really appreciate you going the extra mile to work out how I can do this, thank you.
I just wanted to show you the right direction, but you’re definitely right. It needs to wrap with that:
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(".ms-res").css("display","block");
</script>
You’re welcome, hope it helps!
Regards,
Pantherius
Yep, that did the job, thanks so much!
One last (I hope!) question. Is there a way to make supplying an email address (I am linking to a MailChimp mailing list) optional? At the moment the only way you can see the results is by subscribing, I need it to be optional not compulsory. And ideally, I also need to be able to change the text that preceded the name and email address fields too…
You’re welcome, glad to hear that!
All texts are translatable since the plugin compatible with WPML. That means, you can translate the texts with any translator plugin or with MailPoet. (.pot file included)
Unfortunately, the subscription can’t be optional at the moment. It can be changed in the code only. In this case, you have to disable the Minify Scripts option in the General Settings, then open modal_survey.js on line 876:
if ( jQuery( "#survey-" + survey.survey_id + "-" + unique_key + " .ms-form-name" ).val().length < 3 ) {
and on line 889:
if ( ! isValidEmailAddress( jQuery( "#survey-" + survey.survey_id + "-" + unique_key + " .ms-form-email" ).val() ) ) {
These lines responsible for the validation for the name and the email fields.
Regards,
Pantherius
Thank you, I actually got the same effect by adding the MailChimp script to the sidebar widget and “hiding” it with css in the same way as you had suggested for the results shortcode, and revealing it in the same way with javascript. The only thing I have left to puzzle out is how to get the results to display the results including the vote just made, currently that only works on page refresh. Suggestions gratefully received!
Thanks again for the prompt and helpful support, I do think it would be worth considering making the questions and results less separate, so that the default behavior of results getting displayed after answering is supported directly. For now, though, I think I have a work round that my client can live with, so thanks again.
You’re welcome!
Yes, it is the dark side of this solution, but also the best that can be achieved with a minimum customization in the current version. I don’t think it would be great to go further on this way since this feature will be definitely added soon. I’m planning to do this as simple as possible, so it will be supported directly without any coding.
Hopefully, the new version will be released in the first half of January.

Hi,
I want to know if there is a way to improve apparence of survey in next maj or something.
For exemple i manage to make selected answer style more visible but i want have something when a set a limit answer
Hello,
You can choose from several hover effects on the survey edit screen, that will also change the selected state of the answers when you using multiple selections.
Regards,
Pantherius
Where can i find this option ?
On the survey edit screen in the Miscellaneous window at the top-right corner. Search for ‘Hover Effect’.
Hello,
Is there an option to export an individual participants results? If there is none at the moment, I would really appreciate it if you can make this a feature in the next version.
Thank you!
In addition, if there is no option to do that do you know of any methods that I can use to make sure that the individual participants results can be exported?
Hello,
The participants page is just added in one of the latest releases, therefore it is still in beta. Adding the option to export the individual results is already on my TODO list, like many other improvements with the participants page. Alternatively, you can just copy and paste the text results to a blank document.
Probably, the export will be available in the same formats as you can export the survey.

Hi, survey show this message: You already filled out this survey! and the user has not filled out survey. I tried various settings and reset survey, unfortunately it didn’t work and after a few hours came the same error.
Please tell me you know?
Hello,
Did you try to delete the cookies from your browser? Please also check only one enabled from the ‘Display once per User’ and ‘Display once per Filled Out’ options in the General Settings. Turning on both of them doesn’t make sense and it might causing confusion.
If the issue still exists, please send me the URL of the survey via my profile page mail sender and I’ll check it.
Regards,
Pantherius
Hi,
I have set the settings to display only once per user, but the survey is showing again and again on every page load even if it was dismissed the first time. This is annoying my users, how can I display it just once?
Hello,
It should be a minor configuration issue or conflict. Please send me your website URL via my profile page mail sender and I’ll check it.
Regards,
Pantherius
Is it possible to store answer results to different variables? It would be very helpful for creating differentiated results with a spider diagram.
Hello,
Don’t really understand your request. The answers are already saved to the database and you can also get the answers individually by each user with uid=”userid”
Best regards,
Pantherius
if ( function_exists( 'modalsurvey' ) ) { modalsurvey( '1234567890' ); }?
Hello,
You can use the official shortcode function, like this:
echo do_shortcode(‘[modal_survey id=”1234567890”]’);
Best regards,
Pantherius
Awesome, I’ll give that a go. That you for responding so quickly!
You’re welcome!
Hi, is there no option to delay the survey loading X seconds?
Hello,
It is not a feature yet, but I’ll considering to add this in any of the next releases.
Best regards,

Someone already asked over a year ago, so I guess this is not happening
The plugin constantly get new features and updates. The priority of the changes depends on many things. If you need this feature urgently, you may considering to customize the plugin.
If you need help, I’m happy to show you the right direction.

Hi, thanks for this great plugin & sorry to disturb. Is it a way to not close the result final screen? Tx
Hello,
You’re welcome, happy to hear that you like it.
Yes, you can set the ‘End Delay’ to 0sec or add [noclose] to the ‘Thank you message’ field.

Tx! One more please, how could i solve the “You already filled out this survey!” issue? I was playing with the options “Display Once per User” but it seems it’s not the good way… Thanks again, seems a really good plugin.
You’re welcome!
I don’t really understand, what is the “You already filled out this survey!” issue?
This message is displayed when you set ON the ‘Display Once per Filled Out’ or the ‘Display Once per User’ options and using the survey in embed (flat) mode. After you changing the option above, you have to also delete the COOKIES from your browser or reset the survey.
If these information doesn’t help, please provide me more details about the feature in question.
Best regards,
Pantherius
Sorry my fault, thanks! A last one? Is it a way to do a personnality quiz with profiles, e.g at the end of the test you are profile A, B or C (>3 different thank you message) and all answers (10 questions) impact thoses profiles (e.g if answer of question 4 is “not at all” for example then score of profile A = +10 and score of profile B = -2?). Thanks!
No problem.
You can assign scores, just click on the gear icon next to the answers. Type the category (personality) name in brackets right after the question, like:
Do you like soccer? [Sport]
It is also possible to create conditions based on the scores. Read more in the documentation here: http://modalsurvey.pantherius.com/documentation
Best regards,

Your plugin looks amazing! I see that you support Active Campaign integration. \ My questions is: does the plugin send “tags” to active Campaign based on the person’s answers to a survey question?
Also, does the plugin allow for survey question branching?
Hello,
Thank you!
Active Campaign and other newsletter integrations are responsible to collect the name and email address of the participants only at the moment.
The survey supports conditional logic, that means it is possible to jump to a specific question based on the answer: Conditional Logic and Chained Answers

Hi, I’m possible buyer and I wonder if I can do something like this with your plugin? http://www.orijen.ca/product-selector/
Hello,
You can assign scores to the answers, then redirect the browser to different pages or display a short content based on the scores.
Is it you are looking for?
Best regards,

Thanks for quick answer! I would like to show the certain products at the end of the survey, offcourse based on the survey. If I select DOG food and on the next page PUPPY it should show me all of the PUPPY DOG food products at the end. Is this possible? Thanks!
You’re welcome.
The survey can’t access your website’s products since it is not built specifically for your website. It can give you the possibility to display static message (HTML allowed) or redirect the browser, based on the scores at the end of the survey.
The closest option to achieve that is the following:
- Create different pages, that contains your products based on the score that can be reach.
- Set conditions in the survey, that will redirect the browser to the page, that contains the products.
Example:
- Create Page A with Puppy Dog products
- Create page B with Puppy Cat products
- Create Page C with Adult Dog products
- Create page D with Adult Cat products
The survey will looks like:
Question 1: What kind of pet do you have?
Answer1: Cat
Score: 1
Answer2: Dog
Score: 10
Question 2: How old is your pet?
Answer1: Puppy
Score: 1
Answer2: Adult
Score: 5
Create the conditions:
- if score = 2 redirect to Page B
- if score = 6 redirect to Page D
- if score = 11 redirect to Page A
- if score = 15 redirect to Page C
Best regards,
Pantherius
This system could work. And maybe if I tag products with scores and add conditional statements on pages (for example: Page B – show all products with tag 2 and page D, shows all products with tag 6) then this system could be perfect. Excellent! Thanks for helping.
You’re very welcome!
Hey there, is it possible to link each answer to an end result/outcome? So for a personality test for example, if your possible answers were Dog, Cat or Bird, I would like to have for each possible answer to each question to say – if they picked this answer, they get one point for the “bird” category, if they picked a different one they get one point for the “dog” category.
Or assign A, B or C depending on Answer, and at the end if they got “mostly As” they see a certain result?
Just assigning a numerical value for each one gets you close to this, but not really close enough for what I need?
Hello,
You can easily assign scores to each answers, just click on the gear icon next to the answers. Categories can be added between brackets after the question, like:
Question: Do you like cats? [Cat]
You can add the same categories to different questions. It is also possible to add conditions, based on the scores. Please check out the documentation here, read more about the Individual Score Charts here.

Pantherius
Can the results be hidden to the public and emailed to the customer of mine?
thanks kevin
Hello Kevin,
Sending the results by email is not a feature at the moment. You can add the results shortcode to a private page / post, so it won’t be visible for the public.

Hello is it possible for a viewer to register with his facebook account? or only with native wordpress registration system?
Hello,
The survey can be displayed for all visitors or limited to the members those already registered to your website. Doesn’t mind how, but listed in the users section on admin.
If you mean the Participants Form, that can be displayed at the end of the survey, then the visitor can type any name and email. The social buttons are optional to share the page.
Regards,
Pantherius
How I can make my users see the results of the polls? Thank you!!!!!
Hello,
You can display the results via shortcode on any page / post. Read the details in the Documentation.
Alternatively, it is also possible to display the score based individual chart of the current participant at the end of the survey.
Best regards,
Pantherius
sorry to bother you and take your time. I have not expressed well. as my English is not correct you give an example: Question: what you think of the iPad Pro? answers: it is a good idea. It has no future I want users to see the different final answers%. No that option or not you have to use in setting conditions you understand me? Best Regads.
If you would like to display the cumulative / global results, you may add the results shortcode to any new page / post:
[survey_answers id=”1111111” style=”piechart”]
Replace 1111111 for your survey ID. Then set a redirection to that page. In that case, the survey will automatically navigate the user to the results page after complete the survey.
Displaying the cumulative results directly in the modal window at the end of the survey is not possible.
Regards,
Pantherius
if I post: [survey answers id = “1111111” style = “pie chart”] social icons, facebook and twit who are bottom of the page. stop working links
Please don’t replace underscores with spaces, use exactly the following syntax:
[survey_answers id=”1111111” style=”piechart”]
and replace 1111111 with your survey ID.
If you copy and paste the shortcode (from above), please also don’t forget to fix the ” signs since it is automatically replaced with special symbols here. (better if you type it instead of copy and paste)
Regards,
Pantherius
