Summary04188: Edit Response - Data Entry - Not working
DescriptionHere is my situation:
- Respondents make errors in their responses.
- I go to edit the response -> Data enty
- I have 2 optional questions - type "Date" and type "Array (Multi Flexible) (Numbers)" (attached for reference)
- When I edit the response and save the above 2 questions if not answered get automatically filled with data and break the integrity of the answers
- The "Date" type question gets a 1999 as an year - well outside of the range defined in the question options. Also the question doesn't appear as as date dropdowns as defined in the question advanced settings.
- The "Array (Multi Flexible) (Numbers)" fields get automatically filled with the "minimum value" as defined in the question advanced settings. The worst thing is that there is no way to manully change the answer back to NULL.
- Therefore every response edit results in wrong data being entered - which makes this feature unusable for me.
TagsNo tags attached.

harsha, can you update your local version to the latest release from SVN (because there was a fix to a similar problem recently: http://bugs.limesurvey.org/view.php?id=4178 [^]) and test if you can reproduce the problem.

If so maybe you can check what might be wrong at /admin/dataentry.php.

Yes the issue is yet there , even though the user does not specify values while editing Date type and Array (Multi Flexible) (Numbers) type questions the values get assigned. Thanks iboguev for reporting this. I am working on it.

I am halfway through this issue , i managed to made date type questions appear as date dropdowns as defined in the question advanced settings and removed default date values which get assigned by default as iboguev mentioned.

What would be the better date range to populate in date dropdowns ? it defaults to 2000-2020

I think "this_year" + / - 10 years is fine. The min/max range can also be set by using question attributes so please check that the code considerwes these attribute: http://docs.limesurvey.org/tiki-index.php?page=Question+attributes&structure=English+Instructions+for+LimeSurvey#dropdown_dates [^]

Thanks for your work!
