Hey Typeform Experts -- 

 

I want to recall prior answers as possible multiple choice answers for future questions. Is there a way to do that? 

 

As a trivial example, let’s say that I have the following three questions with answers in [brackets].

(1) What’s the name of your first child? [Max]

(2) What’s the name of your second child? [Sarah]

(3) What’s the name of your third child? [Jennifer]

 

If I want to ask a fourth question, “Who is your favorite child?” that references as possible answers for the multiple choice: A. Max, B. Sarah, and C. Jennifer, is there a way to do that?

Hi @jic_luke Happy Tuesday! I’m afraid we don’t have this option available in the forms, so the only workaround would be to create duplicate of the same question and use logic jumps to show it when it applies. 

If you think of any other questions or suggestions, let me know!

Hello everyone. I am creating a survey about people’s impressions of a list of brands present at events. At the moment I have 1 multiple choice awareness question (which of these brands did you see at eventname?) and from the list of brands selected I want to ask: 1) which of the brands improved their experience at the event; 2) which brands are a good fit with the event. I would like to have only 2 questions instead of one matrix question for each brand. Is there a way I can recall these answers so I only show the brands people remember seeing?  Thanks
