    Hi,

    I’m looking for a survey tool that can be managed as a module via modx.
    Anybody successfully integrated an existing survey tool as a module in modx?
    Would you recommend a survey tool that can be integrated or one that can be ported to modx?

    I was looking into this word-press plug-in for inspiration http://www.surveygizmo.com/add-ons/wordpress-survey-plugin/.

    Finally here are some ideas on how I think it should work:

    1. Module to add/edit the survey questions
    2. If only one question it can be a poll
    3. A TV called "Survey Id" can be used on a modx document in order to show the survey on that page
    4. A TV called "Poll Id" can be used to show a poll in a right column or on a page.
    5. Tracking all the answers and displaying nice graphs would be nice.

    Any ideas welcomed.

    Thx

          Hi,

          Made my own, works pretty good. Charts and downloadable data. It looks like a form builder but for surveys which is basically the same. I'll release it to the community at some point but I have to clean it a bit etc.

          I've seen EasyPoll but I don't bevel it's what I need, it's too simple

              Hey cipa,

              How did you go with your survey tool? I would be super keen to use something like this with Modx.

              Please let me know when you turn it into a Modx Extra! smiley

              Cheers

                Hi guys,

                I did build it but it's kind of too custom for the usual user. I have to remove a few things from it and thing is that I can't release the code as it is. I have to "repackage" it.

                Unfortunately I don't really have time at this point(moving to a new country). Maybe later this year I will try to release it. Keep bugging me smiley so I don't forget

                Thanks
