Allows respondent to stop survey and then come back at the same place.

When a personalized individual link is sent out, the link will remember where the respondent left off
-
This feature allows you to remove all text formatting for selected questions and return them to default.
+
When an anonymous link is used, a cookie is placed on the browser to remember the user. Multiple browsers opened on one computer will count as separate users.

This option is selected by default. However, there is no automatic written indication or notice for respondents that this is an option. Unless it is written in the instructions, they would never know about it

This feature allows you to automatically renumber your questions. Click on the numbering type to change. Remember that these numbers will not appear to the survey responders.
+
-
* Sequential numbering renumbers the questions from beginning to end starting with 1 (Q1, Q2….)
+
-
* Block Numbering renumbers the questions based on the block.  (Block 1: Q1.1, Q1.2; Block 2: Q2.1, Q2.2)
+
-
* Internal ID numbering will change the question label to the original question ID generated when you first created the question. (QID1, QID2, etc. – The prefix will remain Q)
+
-
* Changing the Prefix allows you to change the prefix to any label you wish to use. Note that SPSS requires variable labels to start with letters, not numbers.

== Check survey accessibility ==
+
-
Determines whether your survey is accessible to people with disabilities.

-
== E-mail Triggers ==
+
=== Open access ===
-
A trigger can be used to send an email message to yourself or others each time a survey is completed (default) or each time a certain condition is met during the survey (click “add a condition)
+
Allow anyone with access to the generic link to take the survey
-
* In the body of the email, a summary of that particular survey response can also be sent.
+
=== By invitation only ===
-
* The email trigger is useful when you are using Qualtrics for a reservation form or some other “survey” that will have simple and periodic responses that would be more convenient to receive through email, rather than logging into Qualtrics repeatedly.
+
The generic link is disabled and only personalized links sent out by the survey mailer will function.
-
* An advantage to using the trigger to send responses through email is that the recipient doesn’t need to know how to use Qualtrics to retrieve results.
+
-
+
-
== Panel Triggers ==
+
-
A trigger can be used to add a respondent to an existing panel each time a survey is completed (default) or each time a certain condition is met during the survey (click “add a condition)
+
-
Essential panel fields will be updated; you can also add question responses and other embedded data (add additional fields)
+
=== Password protection ===
-
+
A password you specify must be entered for the respondent to take the survey.
-
== Quotas ==
+
-
Quotas can be set based on responses to a question or based on embedded data (embedded data must be included in the survey flow).
+
-
NOTE: Use caution when using the quota feature to shut down a survey after a certain number of completed responses. If many people have entered the survey simultaneously, there could be problems with the survey shutting down properly and/or too many survey responses will be collected.

If you are conducting a survey in which the respondents’ identities shouldn’t be linked to their responses, but you need to know their names to track participation, the redirect option is a useful tool.

The names of all people who participated will be stored separately from the data maintaining confidentiality.
