Summary11638: group description should not appear on each page
Description

On a question by question survey, using default template; the group description should not appear on each page.

  • See exemple lss attached

  • documentation says
    https://manual.limesurvey.org/The_template_editor/pt#Template_Files
    "groupdescription.pstpl: This template file is used to display a description of a group. It is separate to the startgroup.pstpl file because in a "question by question" survey it will be displayed on its own unique page in between groups, whereas in a "group by group" or "all in one" survey it provides a header to the subsequent questions. groupdescription.pstpl does not have a corresponding 'closing' template file, so all tags should be closed."

  • on default template, groupdescription.pstpl contains
    <!-- Group description -->
    <div class="group-description-container">
    <div class='col-xs-12'>
    <div class="group-description jumbotron">
    {GROUPDESCRIPTION}
    </div>
    </div>
    </div>

TagsNo tags attached.

The manual seem outdated since 2.00 and surely for 1.92.

Maybe just update manual

.... is there any other way on a question by question survey to display a page with group title and group description in a screen with a "next" button... before the next screen with the first question.

To me, it looks like this feature was usefull...

You can use Question type "Display text" for this. Removing the group description, and put it a display text question.

Updated documentation.
Using text display question as suggested by Denis is a much more flexible solution.
