Summary20243: Attribute names disappear and automatic mapping breaks when adding CPDB participants to a survey
Description

Existing survey-level participant attributes are erased when adding a participant from Central Participant Management

Steps To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create a new survey in LimeSurvey.

  2. Add one or more attributes to the survey and give each attribute a Field Description (name).

  3. Go to Central Participant Management (CPDB).

  4. Add a participant from the CPDB to the survey created in step 1.

Expected result

Survey attributes should remain intact when adding participants from CPDB.

Attribute names should continue to appear in mapping screens and participant sections.

Automatic mapping should continue to function correctly.

Actual result

  • The attributes descriptions previously created in the survey are erased.

  • Attribute names no longer appear in the Attribute Mapping screen.

Even if you add the attributes again via the Manage Attributes section, they do not persist and soon reset.

Automatic mapping of attributes seems broken, making adding participants to surveys very time-consuming.
