phpsurveyor integration possible?
I'm wondering if any of you immensely talented folks had considered looking at integrating PhpSurveyor? I would love to be able to have this integrated, at least to the extent of being able to select from our site users list those who will be registered for a particular questionnaire and have them automatically added to the phpsurveyor tokens system.
I can come up with several other, deeper layers of integration possibility - but the most basic and important would be that ability to somehow select existing users to give them access to particular questionnaires, or to allow them to do so (i.e. the questionnaires cannot be "anonymous", but I don't want people having to "register" for the questionnaires when they've already registered for the site... but I also don't want all registered site users to have access to all questionnaires).
Unfortunately, I don't have near the php/mysql skills to pull something like this myself. Any chance someone's already working on this?

Re: phpsurveyor integration possible?
I've found that I can get partial integration of phpsurveyor using the wrapper menu type - and that phpsurveyor's config file includes a section to deal partially with being included in a cms, but I'm not sure what to put there.
The phpsurveyor config.php file has the following lines:
Any idea what I should put in there?
While this won't really come close to the level of integration I'm really wanting, having it work successfully in a wrapper might work as a temporary solution.
Thanks,
Scott

Code: Select all
// Set $embedded to true and specify the header and footer functions if the survey is to be displayed embedded in a CMS
$embedded = true;
$embedded_inc = ""; // path to the header to include if any
$embedded_headerfunc = ""; // e.g. COM_siteHeader for geeklog
$embedded_footerfunc = ""; // e.g. COM_siteFooter for geeklog

Lots of interest, I'm just not sure how to do it.

Re: phpsurveyor integration possible?
I'd also be interested if something like this was released. However, I'm not handy with the core workings of PHPS. ![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)

Re: phpsurveyor integration possible?
After some playing around, I've found it doesn't quite work in a wrapper either -- there were a couple of spots where some content wasn't showing up... so I guess that won't even work as a temporary solution. ![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)

Re: phpsurveyor integration possible?
No luck here... I haven't worked on it in quite a while, as I got busy with other projects, but I'm now back to working on my PHPSurveyor implementation. I'm currently not sure whether to try for Joomla integration or to use it "outside" of Joomla.LordMerlin wrote: Sorry for a reply to an old post, but did you manage to get this working?
In the PHPSurveyor config file there's this:
Code: Select all
// CMS Integration Settings
// Set $embedded to true and specify the header and footer functions if the survey is to be displayed embedded in a CMS
$embedded = false;
$embedded_inc = ""; // path to the header to include if any
$embedded_headerfunc = ""; // e.g. COM_siteHeader for geeklog
$embedded_footerfunc = ""; // e.g. COM_siteFooter for geeklog

Re: phpsurveyor integration possible?
Hi,
PHPSurveyor is now LimeSurvey, and im facing the same issue; i have a request to make a multilingual / extended survey integrated in a Joomla Portal, and no-one the ThirdParty commercial solutions appears to be fiable.
Did you find /make any solution about this?

Re: phpsurveyor integration possible?
I gave up. ![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
I ended up using LimeSurvey separately from my Joomla! installation - I put all the survey info within the Joomla! site, and then added a link to the survey registration.
You might check http://www.surveygizmo.com - it's not open source (but they do have a free account level), and I know they have a plugin for WordPress... so maybe they'd do something for Joomla! (possibly their code for embedding a survey would work as-is in Joomla!)

Re: phpsurveyor integration possible?
Out of curiosity, I just did a search for Joomla! over at SurveyGizmo -- they did open their API so that developers could create plugins, bridges, etc...

Good Luck!

Re: phpsurveyor integration possible?
Thanks again!.
Yes, you are right, the API is open...
Im not sure, but on my understanding, there is no sense to create plugs for commercial software, indeed they pay for it!!
Well, i will do the research and let u know what happend.
regards and thanks again.

Hi,
I am too interested in using something like Limesurvey with Joomla. If anyone has successfully integrated these two, please share your findings.
Thanks.
