Hi,

Please can you trye (With a more of 3 group survey)

• Fill first group
• Resume later
• Close your browser
• Click on the link sended
• Fill 2nd group
• Close your browser
• Click again on the link sended

I think saved survey come back again. Need to be more clear in documentation for admin and in texte for user (in email : you can use this link until you sumit the survey).

Hi,

I tried with a survey containing 10 groups (see .lss file attached).
I started the survey, filled the 1st group, clicked the "Resume later" ("Finir plus tard" in French) button, and closed my browser.
I used the e-mailed link to reconnect to the survey. It opened on the page corresponding to the 1st group, with the data I input during the 1st session, but the "Resume later" ("Finir plus tard") button is not displayed on the left of the progress bar (see screen shot in .png file).
So it is impossible to test with saving after 2nd, 3rd... groups.

Sorry for attached file missing in my 1st post!

If survey is already saved: USER don't have to save again.

In frenh:
Passe au group 2 puis 3, femer ton navigateur puis retest le lien, il n'est pas perdu, c'est pour reprendre le questionnaire en l'état actuel.

Il faudrait peut être mieux expliquer cela, mais le bouton 'sauvegarder' n'est plus nécessaire : puisque la sauvegarde existe.

The trouble is that when I use "Resume later" at the end of 1st group, I still have a lot of data to input in other groups. But when I restart, I have to answer to all remaining groups, without the possibility of making a second break because the "Resume later" is not available.
The same Survey used on an other server with Limesurvey 2.00+ build 131107 allows to "Resume later" each time I reconnect to the Survey as long as I did not finalize by sending the answers.

But, you DON'T need to save again : same url allow to reload the same survey again and again.

You're rigth : we just need a SAVED to allow save without move next and previous and the 'step', but saved each time you click next/previous

After upgrading to the latest 2.05+, my users were confused about this too.

Doing testing shows that if you don't at least try to push 'next/prev' button (even if you are not allowed to due to incomplete information), it won't save.

We've instructed users to simply always click next (even if it fails) before closing the browser, but of course people are forgetting and losing data.

It would be great if the "resume later" button were replaced with a "save" button instead of disappearing. The "save" button could give a pop-up notification so that makes people feel more comfortable than just trusting it is saved and closing the browser.

Thanks!

Yes, its what i planning to do, need time.

Fix committed to master branch: http://bugs.limesurvey.org/plugin.php?page=Source/view&id=14028

I just tested locally and it looks good. I go through the normal routine:
1) click 'Resume Later'
2) providing a name/password and receive e-mail successfully
3) subsequent clicks of 'Resume Later' save data and popup "Your responses were successfully saved."

My users will be happy! Looks good! Thanks!

I make a lot of other change here : for example show "load" button even in the first page with showwelcome to false and some other .

2.05+ Build 140320 released
