Summary11701: Unable to export full question text
Description

Hi,

First, many thanks for developing such an incredibly great piece of software. I've used it for so many projects and I always to manage a nice result.

Now, I have a survey with ~150 questions, and unfortunately, the question codes we set are not very explicit (A, B, C, etc.), so we would like to export the full text of the questions as a header of the CSV/Excel export.

However, none of the options seem to actually set the headers to the full questions text.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. For an existing survey (I tested with two of the surveys I have), go to Export answers > export in application.

  2. Select either CSV or Excel

  3. Select Headers > Full text of the question

  4. Click export

Observed behaviour: the header shortcodes are exported
Expected behavious: get the full text of the question (as displayed for instance in the "column control" select box on the right panel.

Additional Information

I searched & Google before reporting the issue but couldn't find a similar bug report.

I wasn't able to reproduce this bug with demo.limesurvey.org (running LimeSurvey Version 2.51.4). An excelexport was showing questiontexts as headers.

Hello. Thank you for your extremely quick response.

I am not a sysadmin and to me upgrading a system while we have some users trying to access it has always been an important source of stress, so I tried to avoid it as much as possible (I know it's bad).

Anyway, I made the upgrade this evening and this solved the issue (not to mention that the upgrade went very smoothly).

Many thanks for your replies.
