hello,
We are very likely to buy this plugin, but I found there are some social media links of google, any global sites links in plugin like google, Facebook, twitter..will cause our sites delay at frontend, whatever these links from frontend of social media or links in program like google JS libraries, so I just want to confirm whether it is possible to remove those links if there are.
Thanks so much.
Alex
Hello Alex,
The plugin using social media links when you enable the social sharing feature only.

Thanks Pantherits,
I read all your introduction, furthermore, I would like to clear several points, thanks in advance!
1. I note there are some jquery resource from Google ,and Google fonts in plugins,right? If yes, whether it is possible to remove Google fonts?
2.as to jquery of Google , is it possible to remove it too? If not, it would be much better if it can replaced by other jquery resource sites, please check and let me know thanks!
3.we do not need show any statistics and the results to users at front end, whether they can be customed shut down that functions? Thanks!
But we really need those statistics results at backend to export to excell document, does it surport?
4.I am market expert, not technical, from my experience, most of site users think they do not have responsibility to involve in poll or survey unless they can benefit from that, yes, I agree with them, so it would be much better if your plugin support mycred. Most of Wordpress standard post support mycred, but some not, so developers develope an andon or extentions to surport mycred, please check mycred freebies. I do not know whether your plugin support mycred, if not, will you plan to its addon?
Thanks and have a nice day! Alex
You’re welcome!
1. Google Fonts is optional, only included if you set it on the survey edit screen.
2. jQuery is the part of the WordPress installation, not included in the plugin.
3. If you don’t use any of the result shortcodes on the frontend, then it won’t be displayed there. Yes, export to XLS is available.
4. MyCred is not supported yet. It is already on my TODO list, but I can’t give you any estimation for releasing this feature at the moment.
Best regards,
Pantherius
The support from Pantherius has been excellent! Very patient and very precise with above and beyond support. thankyou.
You’re welcome, happy to help you!
Thanks for the kind words.
Is it possible for the user to save the survey, so they can return to it in another time?
Hello,
If the Allow Continue checkbox enabled on the survey edit screen, then the plugin automatically display the last question, that has not been answered by the user, when return to the site.

Pantherius
The plugin seems great but how do you customise the pdf? and how do you show overall individual results if you have used scoring. e.g. how many times the user scored 1 how many times they scored 2 etc.
Hello,
The PDF can be customized under the General Settings. For further customization, you can edit the modules/export_pdf.php file.
You can create categories by adding the category name in brackets right after the answer/question text. This way, the result shortcode with data=”score” will display the chart based on the categories instead of the questions / answers.
Best regards,
Pantherius
It’s still the best plugin I got so far.
I wanted to come back with a question, is there any way to show results live on a specific page as participants are voting? I use this for events and they like to see their answers right away
Glad to hear that, thank you!
My main goals is to keep the performance the best as possible and live result needs lot of resources, that might slow down the website. It is the reason, I didn’t implement this feature yet.
I’ll considering to find out a way to add this feature in the future. Hopefully, I’ll figure out a solution, that will fit to my aims. Maybe it will be an add-on, that could be optional.
Regards,
Pantherius
How can I display different results per score? For example: If score is between 1 and 3 show this text message, if score is between 4 and 7 show these text message.
Hello,
You can use the Conditions feature like: equal with 1-3
If you have any further questions, feel free to ask!

Hello,
for a project I’m looking for a plugin which can ask a user the same set of questions every week and save their anwsers to track their progress over time. For example, ask a user about their current level of happiness and see a progression or decrease in rating giving. Preferbly in a way that the user themselfs can see their anwsers as well. Is this possible with this plugin?
Hello,
However, you can set start and expiry time for the surveys, tracking and comparing the answers based on a specified time period is not a feature at the moment.
Regards,
Pantherius
Ok, I love the Pro Plugin. Thanks. I want to do the same poll everyday, but be able to show my daily results of each poll over time. Eventually I would like to be able to show things like the number of returning poll takers, I figure that can’t happen with the off the shelf version. Do you offer customization services.
Glad to hear that, you’re welcome!
Actually, the Dashboard widget display the votes by day. If it doesn’t fit to your needs, please send me the details via my profile page mail sender, so we can discuss it.
Usually, I’m not available for freelance jobs, but if it is a minor customization only, then I’m happy to do it.

Hello,
How to make an answer end the survey ?
Per exemple ?
Are you Hungry ?
Yes
No – If no the survey is ended .
Hello,
Simply set a higher number than the total number of questions in the Redirection field under the Answer Options.
Regards,
Pantherius
HOW CAN I HAVE ONLY 1 OPEN ANSWER FOR QUESTION ?
Hello,
If you using the latest version, then you can select what kind of answer would you like to add when clicking on the Add New Answer icon.
Regards,
Pantherius
I am setting up a daily poll. Is there a way to show answers over time.
Q1 Mon Totals Q1 Tue Totals Q1 Wed Totals
Q2 Mon Totals Q2 Tue Totals Q2 Wed Totals
Q3 Mon Totals Q3 Tue Totals Q3 Wed Totals
There are a Start and Expiry Time options on the survey edit screen, that accepts any specified dates.

Having issue with embedding Modal Survey in page. Using shortcode
[modalsurvey id=”150428575” style=”flat” align=”center” textalign=”center” width=”50%” visible=”true” message=”You already filled out this survey!”]
with Global Survey Turned Off and Mode:set to Default or Emded to Page Start or Finish. The Survey always appears floating at the bottom of the page as soon as the page loads.
http://blackstarline.net/?page_id=168Hello,
Please make sure the initialization is set to ‘when print the content’ in the General Settings. If it doesn’t help, please send me your website login details via my profile page mail sender and I’m happy to check it!
Regards,
Pantherius
Just checked your website and you have another survey with Global Survey ON.
Regards,
Pantherius
Thanks. Didn’t realize I had to turn it off for all Surveys. Along with the init=”true” it started to work.
Glad to hear that, you’re welcome!
Hi, I recently purchased this plugin and everything is great so far. I have a fairly simple question. How can I retrieve a users response in PHP? I am writing a custom short-code in PHP and would like to be able to grab the users response based on their ID. Could you give me sample query that would for example retrieve all the data for user with an id 1234? Thank you for your time.
Hello,
You can use the following syntax:
$result = $modal_survey->survey_answers_shortcodes( array ( 'id' => 'survey-id-1234', 'data' => 'full-records', 'style' => 'plain', 'uid' => '1234', 'pure' => 'true', 'session' => 'last' );Use $_COOKIE[ ‘ms-uid’ ] to get the current user result.
This method will provide an array with the last individual result of the current user.
Alternatively, you can also call the following function to get the user details:
$user_details = $modal_survey->survey_records_shortcodes( array ( 'id' => '1234', 'data' => 'name', 'qid' => '', 'aid' => '', 'uid' => $_COOKIE[ 'ms-uid' ], 'session' => 'last' );Then the $user_details will give you the name of the participant (if exists and the name field is active in the Participants Form)
Find it in the documentation here: Individual Records
Best regards,
Pantherius
Thank you for the response.
I took a look at the Individual Records documentation and I can use them to retrieve some basic data, which confirms that my survey and user responses exist and are set up properly.
However when I tried to follow your PHP examples I get an HTTP 500 server error. I currently have a test survey with an ID of 110251487 and participants with an id of 2 and 3. I tried replacing these parameters in your example but it did not work. Not sure if its a syntax issue or maybe it has something to do with the fact that I am working in a child theme?
I guess there is a missing closure tag of the parenthesis in the examples. It seems to be the forum engine removed it somehow.
Please make sure, the plugin files already included before you trying to use built-in functions. If you do it on the wrong place (before the plugin initialized), then the function won’t be exists yet, therefore you will get an error.
Regards,
Pantherius
Hi, yes I noticed the missing tag, however that was not the issue. After fixing the tag, nothing past the request would load, showing that it was never completed.
The fact that include files may be missing makes sense, but it seems that I can not include them properly.
I am working in functions.php in my child theme, take a look at the structure below:
wp-content
--plugins
----modal-survey
--themes
----x-child
------functions.php
I have tried various approaches of loading in the plugin files. The function is declared in modal_survey.php so I’ve tried to load it in like this:
require_once ABSPATH . '/wp-content/plugins/modal_survey/modal_survey.php';
As well as providing a relative path from the current file:
require_once '../../plugins/modal_survey/modal_survey.php';
How ever neither of these approaches work. I’m not sure how and where to properly reference these files. I really appreciate the support.
Hello,
Including one of the plugin files doesn’t means all of the plugin variables, functions has been registered properly.
Please send me your website URL with login and FTP details via my profile page mail sender and I’m happy to take a look!
Best regards,
Pantherius
Thanks a lot, I’ve sent you an email with the requested credentials.
You’re welcome! Just replied.
It seems to be the issue has been solved with adding the following line before you would like to use the $modal_survey object:
global $modal_survey;
Then you can use:
$result = $modal_survey->survey_answers_shortcodes( array ( 'id' => 'survey-id-1234', 'data' => 'full-records', 'style' => 'plain', 'uid' => '1234', 'pure' => 'true', 'session' => 'last' ) );Best regards,

Hi Guys,
The plugin looks good. I need to create a set of questions with radio input to choose from 1-10 values. Is it possible to create with the plugin. Also is it possible to make user pay with PayPal before they can download the report link?
Thanks
Hello,
Thank you!
However, the “old-school” radio buttons are not available in the plugin, it provides modern buttons, that acts as a radio input. The report / result can’t be downloaded on the frontend, it can be sent by email (auto-response) or simply embed to any of your page via shortcode. If you choose to embed the result to a page, then you can use any 3rd party PayPal plugin to lock the page until the user pay for it.
Best regards,
Pantherius
Hi Guys,
Thanks for the reply. Is it possible to send the auto-response to user who make the payment? So after they reach end of the survey, they make the payment and receive email with download link?
Can I average values of a set of questions for the result? Suppose I have total 8 sets of questions with 3 questions in each. Each will have a value 1-10 to select. And results will be average of the 3 answers per set.
Thanks
You’re welcome!
Since the PayPal integration is not a feature, then it can be achieved by hard code customization only.
However, if you using scores, the average result can be displayed, it is not possible to create set of questions. Alternatively, you can add categories to the questions, then display the category scores, that might represents something similar.
Regards,
Pantherius
Hi Guys,
Is it possible I can test the plugin? Also can you customize to add PayPal feature?
Thanks again!
You can test the features on the demo website here:
Modal Survey Demo
Sorry, but I’m not available for freelance / customization jobs at the moment. I can recommend you Envato Studio to hire a professional.
Regards,
Pantherius
Thanks Man!
But the demos are front-end only. I want to test with back-end by creating one sample form.
Is it possible?
Thanks
You’re welcome!
Unfortunately, admin demo is not available.

HELP! your graphs in my results page have disappeared after I updated. did you change the syntax or something?
Hello,
Please make sure you cleared all cache on your website. If the issue still exists, please send me your website URL via my profile page mail sender and I’m happy to check it!
Regards,
Pantherius
The shortcode syntax doesn’t changed, but some of the JS files does. It is the reason, the issue probably related with some kind of cache on your site.
i restored from a backup and will check out which update did the damage
None of the updates causing damage since it has been tested on different websites. Did you update the plugin from the built-in Update page under the Modal Survey admin navigation menu?
If yes, then please check the Plugin Database Version on the same page. In case it is different than the Plugin version number, then click on the Update DB likn.
You may also save the surveys on the admin without any changes to apply the new features.
If you follow these steps, that should solve the problem.
Regards,
Pantherius
Is there a way to mass-export all participant data?
Yes, there is a Bulk Export Selected button on the Participants Page.
Regards,
Pantherius
Ok, i’ve restored from a backup to figure out which update broke the radar graphs I’m trying to show, and when I update your plugin, it stops working – so it is your plugin that did it, not other plugins or anything. I updated the Database I cleared my browsers cache any ideas what it could be?
Still would like to see it, because without that I couldn’t find out what causing the issue. Could you send me your website login details and the URL, that contains the radar chart via my profile page mail sender, please?

Pantherius
Hi I have a modal survey which works fine. However, on mobile, if the question has like 10+ options, I am not able to scroll up to see the question itself and the first few options. Any clue please on how to solve this? regards NS
Hello,
Since the survey allows you to add any number of answers, then it is a number, that doesn’t fit to the screen on mobiles or tablets. I recommend you to use the survey in embed mode, that will more flexible in case you have 10+ answers.
Best regards,
Pantherius
Hi there is it possible to include aweber for the result?
Hello,
If you mean, subscribe the user automatically to your existing Aweber mail list, then yes, it is already a feature.
Best regards,
Pantherius
Thank you for your reply! And it is possible to create buzzfeed like personality quizzes with your plugin?
You’re welcome!
Could you specify what does it mean exactly “buzzfeed like”?
The plugin already provides the following features that might be related with “buzzfeed like” quizzies:
- add image to questions and/or answers
- social sharing
- change the layout of the answers
- timer
- assign scores to the answers
- display custom content or redirect the browser at the end of the quiz depends on the answers/scores

Hi, pre-sale question : i want to use the plugin to gather individual statistics from my employees. i have a wordpress site for my company and each month all the employees (registered as users) fill a form. I want to change that form to something i can automatically have all the monthly answers compiled as statistics by user. Your plugin can do that? I hope it was clear…
Hello,
Yes, you can set start and expiration times for each surveys, then see the individual votes on the admin. It is also possible to include the shortcode to a password protected / private page to display the cumulated / individual result by various formats.

Pantherius
Hi! Is it possible to show a survey if the user isn’t logeed In ? If it’s logged in redirects to a Custom URL deppending on the User Role?
Hello,
However, it is possible to display the survey for logged in users only, redirection based on the user’s role is not a feature at the moment.
I recommend you to use a 3rd party plugin to achieve what you want. (redirection based on the user’s role)
Best regards,
Pantherius
Hi again! Thank you for your quick response. Just one more question: Does the questionnaire with scores support multiple questions or just one question ?
Best regards, BrN
Yes, you can add any number of questions to the survey.

Pantherius
