You can also customize your LimeSurvey installation from config.php. For more details, read our wiki on LimeSurvey optional settings.


Users tab

The Users tab contains options related to user and participant management. You have the ability to offer different survey and/or global permissions to your employees/helpers by creating different user groups. Creating user groups makes managing users with different permissions easier. The central participant database (CPDB) contains survey participants who are allocated to more than one survey and/or are shared with other LimeSurvey survey administrators. Three options are located under the Users tab:
