How to add an other option to a dropdown question ?

Hello, I would like to ask a question with a dropdown menu, but some people have other answers than the ones I have put on the menu, so I would like to have the option of writing in a “Other” box. Is that possible ?

Hi @edouardt Happy Halloween, if you celebrate! While we don’t have an other option within the dropdown question, there are two options: 

 

  1. You could add the ‘other’ option in the dropdown and then set a logic jump to send the respondent to a short text question if they select the other option. 
  2. You could use a multiple choice question, which would allow the respondent to type their answer directly into the “other” answer. 

Hopefully this helps!
