Adding Questions to Surveys

A newly created survey is "empty" — there are no questions for visitors to answer. After creating a new survey, you need to add questions to it.

Adding Additional Question Types

Repeat this procedure to add additional questions to the survey.

• To create a radio button selection (where the user select a single response from a list):
  • Change the Type to One Choice
  • In the Options field, type the possible responses, separated by a comma. +For example, to have the user select one of the following selects for the question How often to do you visit social networking sites?, type:
    

    multiple times a day,once a day,a few times a week,less than once a week

• To create a text box (where the user can type a short response):
  • Change the Type to Short text
    This allows the user to answer a question such as What other social networking sites do you visit?.
    To create a text area that allows multiple lines for a response, use the Wiki textarea type.
• To create a rating (where the user can use a scale to rate their agreement with a statement)
  • Change the Type to Rate (1..5).
    This allows the user to answer a question such as __Please rate how much you enjoy (where 1=I hate them/never visit to 5=I love them/visit all the time) visiting social networking sites.
    To create a 10 point scale, use the Rate (1..10) type.
    To create a custom scale, use the Rate type. In the Options field, enter the maximum value (Tiki will automatically start the scale at 1.)

Your survey should now have several questions:
