OPOMBA

Te dodatne nastavitve je možno najti le v datoteki /application/config/config-defaults.php pri običajni namestitvi - nekatere se uporabijo le za prvo namestitev in se prepišejo z globalnimi nastavitvami. Če želite spremeniti te nastavitve, jih prosimo ne spreminjajte v config-defaults.php datoteki, pač pa kopirajte izbrane vrstice nastavitev v /application/config/config.php in jih spremenite v tej datoteki. Vse nastavitve v config.php prepišejo privzete vrednosti iz config-defaults.php in začenši z različico 1.87 nekatere od teh nastavitev se prepišejo z globalnimi nastavitvami. Na ta način je bolj enostavno nadgraditi vašo kasnejšo namestitev.

Splošne nastavitve

  • sitename: določi ime vaši anketi. To ime se bo pojavilo pri pogledu na seznam anket in v glavi strani za skrbnike. (začenši z 1.87 se ta nastavitev prepiše v oknu Globalnih nastavitev)
  • siteadminemail: To je privzeti elektronski naslov skrbnika anketnega sistema in se uporablja za sistemska obvestila ter za kontaktni naslov. (začenši z 1.87 se ta nastavitev prepiše v oknu Globalnih nastavitev)
  • siteadminbounce: To je elektronski naslov za nedostavljena sporočila. (začenši z 1.87 se ta nastavitev prepiše v oknu Globalnih nastavitev)
  • siteadminname: To je resnično ime skrbnika anketnega sistema. (začenši z 1.87 se ta nastavitev prepiše v oknu Globalnih nastavitev)

Varnost

  • surveyPreview_require_Auth: privzeto nastavljeno na resnično (true). Če nastavite to nastavitev na neresnično (false), boste omogočili vsakemu uporabniku preizkušanje vaše ankete z uporabo spletnega naslova ankete (URL)- brez predhodne prijave na skrbniško stran in brez predhodne aktivacije ankete. (začenši z 1.87 se ta nastavitev prepiše v oknu Globalnih nastavitev)
  • usercontrolSameGroupPolicy : privzeto nastavljeno na resnično (true). Privzeto uporabniki, ki niso določeni kot administratorji v LimeSurvay-evem sistemu za upravljanje, bodo edini lahko videli ostale uporabnike. Pri tem mora ta uporabnik spadati v vsaj eno skupino uporabnikov, v kateri je iskani uporabnik. To je nastavljeno z naslednjo nastavitvijo:
  • filterxsshtml: Ta nastavitev omogoča filtriranje sumljivih html oznak v anketi, skupini, vprašanjih in besedilih odgovorov v skrbniškem vmesniku. To nastavitev pustite na neresnično (false) le v primeru, če popolnoma zaupate uporabnikom, ki ste jim dodelili skrbniške pravice in če želite dovoliti tem uporabnikom, da bodo lahko uporabljali Javascript, Flash Movies, itd. (začenši z 1.87 se ta nastavitev prepiše v oknu Globalnih nastavitev)
  • demoModeOnly: Če je ta možnost nastavljena na resnično (true), bo LimeSurvey deloval v demonstracijskem načinu. Demonstracijski način povzroči naslednje spremembe:
    • Onemogoči spreminjanje podrobnosti in gesel skrbnikov
    • Onemogoči nalaganje datotek v urejevalnik predlog
    • Onemogoči pošiljanje povabil in opomnikov v obliki elektronskih sporočil
    • Onemogoči odlaganje podatkovnih zbirk
    • Onemogoči zmožnost shranjevanja naslednjih globalnih nastavitev: Ime strani, privzeti jezik, privzet način HTML urejevalnika, XSS filter

Viri

  • sessionlifetime: Določi čas v sekundah za trajanje seje ankete. Privzeto: $sessionlifetime    =  3600; (začenši z 1.87 se ta nastavitev prepiše v oknu Globalnih nastavitev)
  • memorylimit: Določi velikost spomina, do katerega lahko LimeSurvay dostopa. Priporoča se najmanj '32'(M=MB). Če sistem sporoča napake o prekinitvah (time out errors) ali se pojavljajo težave pri ustvarjanju statističnih podatkov ali pri izvažanju datotek, potem je potrebno dvigniti to mejo na '128' ali '256'.

Ne pozabite, da so lahko takšne lokalne nastavitve s pomočjo aplikacije vedno ovržene z globalnimi nastavitvami strežnika. Za povečanje velikosti meje spomina na 128M je smiselno poskusiti dodati še:

  • memory_limit = 128M v glavno datoteko php.ini na vašem strežniku (priporočljivo, če imate dostop)
  • memory_limit = 128M v datoteko php.ini file v korenski mapi LimeSurvay-a (LimeSurvey root)
  • php_value memory_limit 128M v datoteko .htaccess v korenski mapi LimeSurvay-a (LimeSurvey root)

Izgled

  • $lwcdropdowns: Lahko je nastavljeno na "L" ali "R". Nastavitev na "R" bo povzročila v vprašanju tipa 'Seznam s komentarjem', da se bo seznam možnih odgovorov prikazal v obliki radijskih gumbov, medtem ko bo nastavitev na "L" povzročila v tem tipu vprašanja prikaz v obliki spustnega seznama. (Neaktualno v verziji 2.0)
  • $dropdownthreshold: Če izberete "R" za $dropdowns, vam ta nastavitev omogoča izbrati največje število možnosti, ki se bodo prikazala kot radijski gumbi, preden se bo spremenila v spustni seznam. V kolikor imate vprašanje, ki vsebuje večje število možnih odgovorov, bi bil prikaz v obliki radijskih gumbov nepregleden. Nastavitev na največje število npr. 25 (kar je tudi privzeta nastavitev) bi pomenila, da je večji seznam anketirancem enostavnejši za uporabo.
  • $repeatheadings: Pri vprašanju v obliki lestvice imamo pogosto veliko odgovorov, ki jih je nemogoče prikazati na enem zaslonu. S to nastavitvijo določite, koliko odgovorov se prikaže preden se ponovi glava z informacijami o vprašanju. Smiselna nastavitev je okoli števila 15. Če ne želite, da se glava ponavlja, nastavite to nastavitev na 0 (kar je privzeta nastavitev).
  • $minrepeatheadings: Zahtevano najmanjše število odgovorov pri vprašanju v obliki lestvice, ko se glava lestvice začne ponavljati.
  • $addTitleToLinks: Če je ta možnost nastavljena na resnično (true), potem bo LimeSurvey dodal html značko 'title' vsem povezavam uporabljenim v menijih. To pomaga zaslonskim bralnikom pri analiziranju menijev. To možnost nastavite na resnično le v primeru, če uporabljate zaslonski bralnik, ker se prekrijejo z namigi o orodjih.
  • $defaulttemplate: Ta nastavitev določi privzeto temo, ki se uporablja za 'javni seznam' anket. (starting with 1.87 this setting is overridden in the Global settings dialog)
  • $defaulthtmleditormode: Sets the default mode for integrated HTML editor (starting with 1.87 this setting is overridden in the Global settings dialog) . Valid settings are: inline (default), popup and none:
    • inline: Inline replacement of fields by an HTML editor. Slow but convenient and user friendly
    • popup: Adds an icon that runs a popup with and html editor. Faster, but html code is displayed on the form
    • none: No html editor

Language & Time

  • $defaultlang: This should be set to the default language to be used in your administration scripts, and also the default setting for language in the public surveys. You can change this setting for public surveys on a survey-by-survey basis from the admin scripts. (starting with 1.87 this setting is overridden in the Global settings dialog)
  • $timeadjust: If your web server is in a different time zone to the location where your surveys will be based, put the difference between your server and your home time zone here. For example, I live in Australia but use a US web server. The web server is 14 hours behind my local time zone. So my setting here is "14". In other words, it adds 14 hours to the web servers time. This setting is particularly important when surveys timestamp the responses. (starting with 1.87 this setting is merely a default and can be changed in the Global settings dialog)
  • $modrewrite: (Note: This setting is obsolete for version >=2.0) If set to 1, it activates the fancy URL feature (Example: http://survey.example.com/123456/lang-fr/tk-sdlfkjozeiru instead of http://survey.example.com/index.php?sid=123456⟨=fr&token;=sdlfkjozeiru). Before you activate this, you must rename "htaccess.txt" file to ".htaccess". You need to run an Apache web server with correctly installed mod_rewrite module.

Survey Behavior

  • $allowmandbackwards: A setting of 1 for this variable will allow survey participants to move to a previous question even if they haven't answered a mandatory question. If it is set on 0, then participants will have to answer that question even to move to a previous question.
  • $deletenonvalues: Use this feature with caution.  By default (a value of 1), irrelevant questions are NULLed in the database.  This ensures that the data in your database is internally consistent.  However, there are rare cases where you might want to hold onto irrelevant values, in which case you can set the value to 0.  Say you ask the person his gender, and he accidentally says 'female' and then answers some female-specific questions (questions that are conditioned on being female, so are only relevant for women).  Then, he realizes his mistake, backs up, sets the gender to 'male', and continues with the survey.  Now, the female-specific questions are irrelevant.  If $deletenonvalues==1, those irrelevant values will be cleared (NULLed) in the database.  If $deletenonvalues==0, his erroneous answers will not be deleted, so they will still be present in the database when you analyze it.
  • $shownoanswer: When a question of a radio button/select type that contains editable answers (ie: List, Array questions) is not mandatory and $shownoanswer is set to 1, an additional entry is shown for "N/A" - so that participants may choose to not answer the question. Some people prefer this not to be available. Set this to 0 to turn this off. (starting with 1.87 this setting is overridden in the Global settings dialog)
  • $printanswershonorsconditions: This setting determines if the printanswers feature will display entries from questions that were hidden by conditions-branching. (Default: 1 = hide answers from questions hidden by conditions)
  • $hide_groupdescr_allinone: This setting is relevant for all-in-one surveys using conditions and has bene introduced in LimeSurvey 1.85RC3. When this is set to true the group name and description is hidden if all questions in the group are hidden. (Default: true (hide group name and description when all conditions in the group are hidden by conditions))
  • $showpopups:  Show popup messages if mandatory or conditional questions have not been answered correctly. 1=Show popup message (default), 0=Show message on page instead, -1=Do not show the message at all (in this case, users will still see the question-specific tips indicating which questions must be answered).

Development

  • $debug: With this setting you set the PHP error reporting to E_ALL. That means every little notice, warning or error with the script is shown. This setting should be only switched to 1 if you are trying to debug the application for any reason, if you are a developer switch it to 2. Don't switch it to 1 or 2 in production since it might cause path disclosure. (Default: 0)

Email Settings

Note: Starting with 1.87 the settings in this section are overridden in the Global settings dialog.

  • $emailmethod:  This determines how E-mail messages are being sent. The following options are available:
    • mail: use internal PHP mailer
    • sendmail: use sendmail mailer
    • smtp:use SMTP relaying. Use this setting when you are running LimeSurvey on a host that is not your mail server.
  • $emailsmtphost: If you use 'smtp' as $emailmethod then you have to put your SMTP-server here. If you are using Google mail you might have to add the port number like $emailsmtphost = 'smtp.gmail.com:465';
  • $emailsmtpuser: If your SMTP-server needs authentication then set this to your user name, otherwise it must be blank.
  • $emailsmtppassword: If your SMTP-server needs authentication then set this to your password, otherwise it must be blank.
  • $emailsmtpssl: Set this to 'ssl' or 'tls' to use SSL/TLS for SMTP connection
  • $maxemails: When sending invitations or reminders to survey participants, this setting is used to determine how many emails can be sent in one bunch. Different web servers have different email capacities, and if your script takes too long to send a bunch of emails, the script could time out and cause errors. Most web servers can send 100 emails at a time within the default 30 second time limit for a PHP script. If you get script timeout errors when sending large numbers of emails, reduce the number in this setting.  Clicking the 'send email invitation' button on the token control toolbar, (not the button on the right of each token), sends the maxemails number of invitations, then displays a list of the addresses sent to and a warning that "There are more emails pending than could be sent in one batch. Continue sending emails by clicking below. There are ### emails still to be sent." and provides a "continue button" to proceed with the next batch. I.e., the user determines when to send the next batch after each batch gets emailed.  It is not necessary to wait with this screen active.  The admin could log off and come back at a later time to send the next batch of invites.

Statistics and Response Browsing

  • usejpgraph: (< 1.8) The JPGraph-library lets you display the results of your survey in the statistics part of LimeSurvey  in bar- and pie charts. If you have a correctly configured jpgraph class set up on your server, you can turn this feature on or off (1=on, 0=off). Please have a look, every version of PHP needs another version of JPGraph! This feature is currently in development, so expect a few weird outcomes.
  • jpgraphdir: (< 1.8) The physical disk location of the jpgraph class scripts. This setting is only required if $usejpgraph is equal to 1.
  • jpgraphfont: (< 1.8) The font to use with graphs. A failsafe setting would be "FF_FONT1"
  • embedded: If you want to integrate LimeSurvey into another page then you can turn off sending HTML headers by using this setting and point instead to the header method of a custom function. This is a dirty hack but should work for a quick integration.
  • filterout_incomplete_answers: Control the default behaviour of  filtering incomplete answers when browsing or analyzing responses. For a discussion on incomplete Responses see Browsing survey results. Since these records can corrupt the statistics, an option is given to switch this filter on or off in several GUI forms. This parameter config.php is just the default state for the incomplete answer filter. The following options are available:
    • show: Show both complete and incomplete answers
    • filter: Show only complete answers
    • incomplete: Show only incomplete answers
  • strip_query_from_referer_url: This setting determine if the referrer URL saves parameter or not. Default value is "false" (in this case referrer URL saves all parameter). Alternatively this value can be set to "true" and the parameter part of the referrer URL will be removed.
  • showaggregateddata: (>=1.8) When activated there are additional values like arithmetic mean and standard deviation at statistics. Furthermore data is aggregated to get a faster overview e.g. results of scale 1+2 and 4+5 are added to have a general ranking like "good" (1/2), "average" (3) and "bad" (4/5). This only affects question types "A" (5 point array) and "5" (5 point choice).
  • PDF Export Settings: (>1.85) This feature activates PDF export for printable survey and Print Answers. The PDF export is totally experimental. The output is mostly ugly. At this point no support can be given - if you want to help to fix it please get in touch with us.
    • usepdfexport: Set 0 to disable; 1 to enable
    • pdfdefaultfont: Default font for the pdf Export
    • pdffontsize: Fontsize for normal text; Surveytitle is +4; grouptitle is +2
    • notsupportlanguages = array('zh-Hant-TW','zh-Hant-HK','zh-Hans','ja','th');
    • pdforientation: Set L for Landscape or P for portrait format
  • $showsgqacode: (>1.91) This setting is used at the printable survey feature {IMG(attId="78",height="16",width="16")} and defaults to false. If you set showsgqacode = true; the IDs for each question - and answer if applicable - will be shown; these IDs match the column heading at the Lime_survey_12345 table which holds the answer data for a certain survey. These Ids can be used for a code book for manual database queries.
  • {IMG(attId="79",height="200",width="400")}

LDAP settings

As this is an extensive topic we have moved LDAP settings to another page.

Authentication

Delegate Authentication to the Webserver

System Administrators may want to have their survey administrators authenticated against a central authentication system (Active Directory, openLdap, Radius, ...) rather than using the internal LimeSurvey database. An easy way to do this is to setup your Webserver software to use this external authentication system, and then ask LimeSurvey to trust the user identity reported by the webserver. In order to enable this feature you have to:

  • set auth_webserver to true in config.php
  • enable authentication at the webserver side

Please note that:

  • LimeSurvey will then bypass its own authentication process (by using the login name reported by the webserver without asking for a password)
  • this can only replace the LimeSurvey GUI authentication system, not the survey invitation system (participant interface)

Authentication Delegation with no automatic user import

Please note however than by default Authentication Delegation doesn't bypass the LimeSurvey authorization system: this means that, even if you don't have to manage passwords in LimeSurvey, you still need to define the users in the LimeSurvey database and assign them the correct set of rights in order to let them access survey resources.

A user is then granted access to LimeSurvey if and only if:

  • he has been authenticated to the webserver
  • his login name is defined as a user in the LimeSurvey user database (the user is then granted the privileges of the user defined in the LimeSurvey user database).

Authentication Delegation with automatic user import

When managing huge user database, it is sometimes easier to auto-import user in the LimeSurvey database.

  • auth_webserver_autocreate_user: if set to true LimeSurvey will try to autoimport users authenticated by the webserver but not already in its users' DB
  • auth_webserver_autocreate_profile: an array describing the default profile that will be assigned to the user (including fake First and Last name, email, privileges)

If you want to customize the user profile so that it matches the logged-in user, you'll have to develop a simple function called hook_get_autouserprofile: with this function you can retrieve from a central User account database (for instance an LDAP directory), the true First&Last; names and email of a particular user. You can even customize his privileges on the system based on his groups on the external DB.

The hook_get_auth_webserver_profile function takes the user login name as the only argument and can return:

  • False or an empty array: in this case the user is denied access to LimeSurvey
  • an array containing all common userprofile entries as described in the  $WebserverAuth_autouserprofile
function hook_get_auth_webserver_profile($user_name)
{
     // Retrieve user's data from your database backend (for instance LDAP) here
     ... get $user_name_from_backend
     ... get $user_email_from_backend
     ... get $user_lang_from_backend
     ... from groups defined in your backend set $user_admin_status_frombackend_0_or_1
     return Array(
                     'full_name' => "$user_name_from_backend",
                     'email' => "$user_email_from_backend",
                     'lang' => '$user_lang_from_backend',
                     'htmleditormode' => 'inline',
                     'templatelist' => 'default,basic,MyOrgTemplate',
                     'create_survey' => 1,
                     'create_user' => 0,
                     'delete_user' => 0,
                     'superadmin' => $user_admin_status_frombackend_0_or_1,
                     'configurator' =>0,
                     'manage_template' => 0,
                     'manage_label' => 0);
}

     // If user should be denied access, return an empty array

     // return Array();

An example of using a hook with Atlassian's Crowd as a backend is available here.

User name mapping

In case some users have an external user name that is different from their LimeSurvey user name, you may find useful to use a user name mapping. This is done in LimeSurvey by using the auth_webserver_user_map parameter. For instance imagine you don't have an 'admin' username defined in your external authentication database. Then in order to login to LimeSurvey as admin, you'll have to map your external username let's call it 'myname' to the admin login name ine LimeSurvey. The corresponding setup is :

$config['auth_webserver_user_map'] = Array ('myname' => 'admin');

After a successful authentication with the 'myname' login and password to the webserver, you'll be directly authorized to use LimeSurvey as the 'admin' user.

This obviously has serious security implications, so use it with care, and please protect your config.php from write access by the web server.

Use one time passwords

(since 1.81)

A user can call the limesurvey login at /limesurvey/admin and pass username and a one time password which was previously written into the users table (column one_time_pw) by an external application.

This setting has to be turned on (use_one_time_passwords => true) to enable the usage of one time passwords (default = false). More information can be found at "Manage Users"}.

Advanced Path Settings

If possible do no touch these settings. Additionally these settings can only be adjusted on config-defaults.php.

  • $homeurl: This should be set to the URL location of your administration scripts. These are the scripts in the /limesurvey/admin folder. This should be set to the WEB URL location - for example "http://www.mydomain.com/limesurvey/html/admin". Don't add a trailing slash to this entry. The default setting in config.php attempts to detect the name of your server automatically using a php variable setting - {$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']}. In most cases you can leave this and just modify the remainder of this string to match the directory name you have put the LimeSurvey scripts in.
  • $publicurl: This should be set to the URL location of your 'public scripts'. The public scripts are those located in the "limesurvey" folder (or whatever name you gave to the directory that all the other scripts and directories are kept in).
  • $tempurl: This should be set to the URL location of your "/limesurvey/tmp" directory - or a directory which you would like LimeSurvey to use to store temporary files, including uploads. This directory must be set to read & write for your webserver (e.g. chmod 755)
  • $imagefiles: By default you should leave this pointing to the URL location of /limesurvey/admin/images - where the images are installed initially. You may, however, prefer to move these images to another location and if so point this to the URL directory where they are stored.
  • $homedir: This should be set to the physical disk location of your administration scripts - for example "/home/usr/htdocs/limesurvey/admin". Don't add a trailing slash to this entry. The default setting in config.php attempts to detect the default root path of all your documents using the php variable setting - {$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']}. In most cases you can leave this and just modify the remainder of this string to match the directory name you have put the LimeSurvey scripts in.
  • $publicdir: This should be set to the physical disk location of your 'public scripts'.
  • $tempdir: This should be set to the physical disk location of your /limesurvey/tmp directory so that the script can read and write files.
  • $fckeditordir: url of the fckeditor script
  • $fckeditexpandtoolbar: defines if the FCKeditor toolbar should be opened by default
  • $pdfexportdir: Directory with the tcpdf.php extensiontcpdf.php
  • $pdffonts: Directory for the TCPDF fonts
