Allow reuse of survey after user has filled it in (for one entry-point and multiple users). #38

Open zeigerpuppy opened 8 years ago

We deployed a survey recently (via a public link) and some users found they could not click the submit button,

the gear icon with "Thanks for your time...." is showing rather than the submit icon. When a form is filled, it requires closing the sandstorm instance before another survey can be filled. It may be leaving a cookie in the browser session that prevents submission?

Hey @zeigerpuppy - are you using the same view for each person filling in the survey? As in - does each person fill in the survey, and then the next person does on the same computer? If that's so - that's not how it was intended to be used.

Basically the idea is that each person taking the survey does so on their on screen, and that's why the thing tracks it in the session.

This sounds like a case where you're handing around a survey at the end of an event (eg.) on an ipad. Maybe there needs to be a setting for this, basically saying "Allow reuse of survey in same session".

Did I get that right?

Hi @simonv3, yes we were adding some responses to the survey manually as some users had found they were unable to submit (maybe a different issue). I agree it would be good to have an option to allow reuse n this context.

Cool I think that's a perfectly valid thing to expect Quick-Survey to do.
