Sondaggi - introduzione

Video tutorials
Ci sono molti video tutorial su LimeSurvey, ecco di seguito quelli che consideriamo i migliori. Crea un nuovo tutorial e aggiungilo qui sotto, sarà benaccetto!
- Tutorial A - this video tutorial was made available to us by Andreas Pursche (PAUL Consultants e.V. of University of Technology Dresden).
- Tutorial 'How to get started - a first survey' - this one is really nice and available on YouTube and should be viewed in HD
Indagini esempio
Un modo semplice per imparare ad usare LimeSurvey è provarlo creando delle indagini. Qui dozen surveystroverai una versione dimostrativa che contiene tutte le principali caratteristiche del programma aggiornate alle ultime versioni.
We also provide How To and Examples pages to help orient users to Expression Manager.
Simply import those surveys into your installation (or into the public LimeSurvey demo), and test the survey. One of the easiest ways to review the survey logic is via the new Show Survey Logic feature.
Basic survey elements
Un'indagine è formata da 3 elementi fondamentali, che devono sempre essere presenti:
- Titolo dell'indagine
- Almeno un gruppo di domande
- Almeno una domanda question
Tra gli elementi opzionali di una nuova indagine si trovano:
- Opzioni di risposta per ciascuna domanda
- Etichette modificabili
- Condizioni che determinano se una domanda dev'essere visualizzata
Titolo dell'indagine
Il titolo dell'indagine è il primo elemento obbligatorio da definire quando si crea una nuova indagine, insieme alla scelta della lingua. Questi due elementi sono sufficienti a creare una nuova indagine, ma ne esistono altri (facoltativi) che consentono di personalizzarla ulteriormente come:
- il messaggio di benvenuto
- la descrizione dell'indagine
- il messaggio di conclusione
- i contatti dell'amministratore.
Gruppi di domande
Un'indagine richiede che ciascuna domanda faccia parte di uno specifico di gruppo di domande. In base al numero di domande dell'indagine, i Gruppi possono essere usati per raggruppare domande sullo stesso tema, o per personalizzarne la visualizzazione (es. visualizzare tutte le domande in un gruppo in un'unica pagina).
This whole chapter deals with question groups. Do not confuse a question group with a user group. Each is very different and used in different ways, based on the object being grouped.
Un gruppo di domande ha un titolo e una descrizione opzionale. E' necessario creare almeno un gruppo di domande per ciascuna indagine.
Questions
Questions are the core of your survey. There is no real limit to the number of questions you can have in your survey or in a group. Questions include the actual question text as well as settings that determine what form of answer you will accept. You can also specify a short 'help' explanation for each question and determine whether the question is mandatory (that is, must be answered) or optional. For more details check the question types section.
The LimeSurvey tool presents horizontal tool bars to the survey creator in their web browser. These toolbars are the header of a window allowing interaction.
Administrative Tool Bar
The top toolbar is usually the Administrative Tool Bar providing top level, global actions. One of the key items there is the drop down list of surveys along with a Create New (Survey) button; if available and enabled for your login account. Both are on the right side of the toolbar.
Want to know more about a particular icon button in a tool bar? Hover over the icon to see its name or click on the Help button
in the Administrative Tool Bar to see a description of icons in the currently active toolbar.If the Administrative Tool Bar does not appear to be on top, click the home button 
to get back to it. The Labelset 
and Template 
editors, available in this tool bar, are the only ones that can replace the Administrative Tool Bar.
By clicking the Create New (Survey) button 
or selecting an existing survey, you minimize the Administrative window and open a new tool bar below to manage the Survey.
Survey Tool Bar
Similar to before, one can click on the drop down list of question Groups or on the Create New (Group) button on the Survey toolbar. Either selection will bring up the question Group toolbar below the Survey toolbar.

Group Tool Bar
In the Question Group, you can click on the drop down list of Questions or click the Create New (Question) button to add a fourth toolbar to now edit a Question.

Common Buttons
In these nested toolbars are some common, navigational buttons. There is an Edit button 
to edit the object you selected. By default, you will be put in the editor if you create the object. There is a Delete button 
to delete the object. For Groups and Questions, there is a Reorder button 
to change the order the object appears in during the survey execution. Finally, there is an Export button 
to export a survey, question group or question that you can import back into another survey. Note that the Create button also allows you to import a previously exported object.
Finally, there are two to three small buttons to the far right 
to minimize, maximize, and close the window of a toolbar. The maximize button will take you back to the summary window of the currently selected object.
As seems natural, the window of the current toolbar is automatically minimized when you select a lower level object to edit. Only the current toolbar and its window can be closed. You can open a previous toolbar and window by clicking on its maximize button. And you can jump around by selecting or creating a new object in another toolbar without having to close the currently open window first.
We will discuss navigating through a survey itself later on in the section on testing the survey.
Creating a new survey
Now that we have some basics down, lets move on and create our first survey. When doing so, we first have to define the basic survey settings.
