By default, question numbers are hidden from respondents in live surveys. Use show tag
to display question and table IDs, and show row tag
to control the visibility of table row numbers.
On a question
1. Do you have a pet?
show tag: y
type: radio
1. Yes
2. No
On set defaults
set defaults
show tag: y
Details
- The
show tag
/show row tag
tags can be applied to individual questions or aset defaults
widget. - The
show tag
tag accepts 'y', 'n', or a string as input. The string can replace the question ID with a custom label (e.g., LOOP1). - Unlike
show tag
,show row tag
only accepts 'y' and 'n' inputs. - Both tags can be used together on a table widget or at the defaults level for comprehensive control.
Tip! If you or your client need to see question IDs for testing purposes only, try using a Testmode link.
Additional examples
Using 'show tag' to display a custom question label
In addition to accepting 'y' and 'n' inputs, the show tag
tag also accepts a string as an input. If a string is used, it appears in place of the actual question ID when the survey is rendered but does not replace the ID in the reports. Note that the string is displayed without a "leading Q" or period. Add these to your string if needed.
1. Do you own a motorcycle?
show tag: A.

It is also possible to combine show tag
with show row tag
on a table, as shown below.
