we use limesurvey for online testing prior to interviews. As such, seeing how long it takes someone to answer particular questions would be very useful. ie can the candidate be bothered to think ,or are they rushing through it...

peterbrown05, please open a new idea for your request. It's not connected to Adams proposal.

Has there been any move to implement this idea? It's a great idea, and it would really help with the administration of the surveys.

I would like to see this feature in a next version of LimeSurvey.
It could be pretty useful!

-> This can already be done by enabling timings. See "save timings" at https://manual.limesurvey.org/Survey_settings#Notification_.26_data_management
"If activate then on survey activation a separate table will be created where timings for your questions will be saved, e.g. how long a user stays on one page during taking the survey."

@peterx: So how about sponsoring the development of this feature?

In favor but in extra plugin :

• Survey settings for "Category"
• Allow extension of survey list (new plugin event for this list)

@Mazi: Yes, I did. Keep up the good work! LimeSurvey is great and I'd love to see its further development!
