Central Participant Database
From LimeSurvey Manual
Introduction
This new feature allows the administrator to store the participants to a central table that is independent of any token. The major advantages of allowing this is :
- The participants are backed up, so if a user wants to backup the participants without having to go through the trouble of exporting his participants to a CSV file and then importing them back into a new survey.
- The user need not have to import CSV to each specific survey , he/she just needs to add the survey to the central table and then can add to as many surveys as he wants.
- In case of multiple users , one user can choose to share his participants with others and also set if he wants it to be editable with the shared user or not.
Along with this, there is a advance attribute control and several other features.
