Feature request: RavenNuke + LimeSurvey

Would it be possible to integrate LimeSurvey to be a single module inside of the Raven Nuke?

Could you consider this as an one potential feature enhancement for RNv2.4 (or later)?

We are definitely in need of a much better survey management tool. The license is compatible, so I think it is a reasonable candidate. Tell us what you like best about it as well as what you think it could do better.

Nice find!

It is quite a large package, so I am not sure we would to fully intergrate it. JMO

There are a couple of options - phpESP (some attempts have been made to integrate this before, and it's also been integrated with other applications like Moodle) and LimeSurvey (formerly phpSurveyor).

phpESP has been much more functional than phpSurveyor, but now LimeSurvey appears to be more actively developed, it might be time to review these again.

Yeah, sounds good to me. I had looked at yet another one a few years back (cannot recall which) as I was needing more of a Zoomerang type survey... i.e., multiple options and multiple types of questions/option combinations.

Skip logic / branching is something of a must have for any half decent Survey so I'm pleased to see LimeSurvey are handling that.
Looks pretty good but I wouldn't want to try and make the plug-in for it.

What about if this would be made in small scale, e.g building a bridge / connector to the user database (like what you are thinking to build to phpBB3)? That would help to use Raven Nuke DB to send surveys.

I agree. The survey itself doesn't need to be fully integrated with RN (minimize distractions during the completion of the survey), but it definitely should be able to access the user and groups tables...
