Summary06420: Timer causes redirection even when previewing a survey
Description

When I add a timer to a "list radio" question (see attached test survey) and run the group or question preview, then the script starts a redirection when time is up.
This causes two problems:

  1. The redirect causes the preview page to load the Limesurvey root page.
  2. A cookie seems to be set also at preview mode so you can't test/preview the question any further. You are automatically shown a "Your time to view this question has expired." message and then you are redirected.
Steps To Reproduce

Import the attached survey
Start the question preview of the "radio_timer" question and wait until time is up
-> You are redirected to the Limesurvey root page (and a cookie seems to be set).

Start the preview again and the question automatically starts to redirect :-(

I think this happens with timers in all question types, and I guess I'll have to think about how to fix it. The cookie setting is meant to be fixed and unchangeable - so that the timer really does lock people out of a question once the time has expired. The issue here is how to tell LimeSurvey that this is just a test system, and to avoid setting the cookie, without breaking the timer for live surveys.

I'll get onto it next week Mazi :-)

Thanks, Jason.

Not sure if this is a proper solution but one could check the URL if it contains "previewgroup" and then deopending on this change the behavior (same for question preview!?).
