Summary15440: Cannot use a custom question theme.
Description

Although the question theme interface is broken, I tried to load a custom question theme manually.

I placed a question theme in /upload/themes/question/ and imported a working survey from 3.19 that uses that question theme.

Initially, the question theme is not available in the theme selection drop-down (see bug_8_1.png) or in the question type selector (see bug_8_2.png) but the question DOES use the theme (see bug_8_3.png).

Saving the question (without any changes) reverts it to using the default question theme.

Steps To Reproduce
  • Unpack the attached LimeSurvey-Multiple-Choice-Dropdown-master.zip.

  • Place the Multiple-Choice-Dropdown folder in /upload/themes/question/.

  • Import the demo survey found in /upload/themes/question/Multiple-Choice-Dropdown/survey/questions/answer/multiplechoice/assets/demo/.

  • View the question in the back-end WITHOUT SAVING - the theme is not available.

  • Preview the survey and select some items in the first and third questions - the question theme works.

  • Save the question in the back-end WITHOUT ANY CHANGES.

  • Preview the survey again - the question theme is broken.

@cdorin / @c_schmitz: Please also consider NOT to release a first stable version of LS4.x as long as there is no documentation abut question themes. I know that you want to release early but providing a new feature without documentation will lead to many support requests and users not being able to use the feature and thus be disappointed.

I will mark it as closed since it is quite old.
