 Description  « Hide
Sometimes you don't want to offer a single choice, instead you want to offer your respondents the option to indicate multiple answers on a question. For example "which beverages do you like?; coke, beer, sprite, etc." You can even expand this with an option where you want your respondents to indicate an order of preference, e.g.; Indicate which X beverages you like most?; coke, etc. etc."

Currently it is not possible to add this functionality because any prior answer gets unchecked once a new answer is ticked. Can the option be added to tick multiple answers? Please make it possible to construct such a question with and without an order.

I can imagine this can be added to the vote (and survey) macro by adding code options as "multiple answers = false/true" and "orderedanswers = false/true". This would result in code as follows.

{vote:What is your favorite color?|multipleanswers=true|orderedanswers=false}
    Red
    Green
    Blue
    {vote}

the example code should provide me the possibility to indicate multiple colours as being my favourite, but I do not provide a preference for my most favourite colour.

as the macros are quite straightforward layout to have only one vote it will be a bit deeper to get this resolved.

The ordering will be another clue, as it would need a visual element to enter a ordering, either by give new images (with numbers, maybe limited to 10?) or by making input-boxes like on the JIRA-Field-List-Ordering.
