How to skip viewing own response upon submission

How to skip viewing own response upon submission

I'm using the Questionnaire plugin for pre and post-surveys. Upon submission as a test user I first see the "Thank you for completing this Questionnaire" page with my customized message. When I then click "Continue", I want to navigate to the main page of the course. However, I'm instead presented with "Your Response", which then lists all of the questions with the responses I indicated.

This is not helpful and moreover there is no navigation available other than the bread crumb or the navigation sidebar... so it would definitely confuse many users.

I can't figure out how to change this. Help is appreciated!

This is in a 3.1.2+ (Build 20161014) of Moodle.

Hi -

You said,

I'm not sure why that is a problem. That is pretty standard throughout Moodle. If the user is not familiar with the breadcrumbs and navigation menu, how do they use the other activities in Moodle? If I'm in a forum, or looking at a resource for example, the only way back to the course is through those mechanisms.

If you want to set up the questionnaire so that students can't view their responses ever, you need to follow the instructions at https://docs.moodle.org/31/en/Adding/editing_a_questionnaire#ALL_Responses_viewing.

If you do want them to be able to review their responses, but not go there after submitting, you would need to supply your own confirmation page, per the instructions at https://docs.moodle.org/31/en/Setting_up_a_questionnaire#Confirmation_URL.2Fpage.

I solved the issue and so wanted to share the solution in this forum.

To avoid forcing questionnaire respondents from having to review all of their answers after submitting the survey:

1. Go to Permissions setting for Questionnaire in question.

2. Remove Participant for the "Read own responses" permission.


Best,

Steve
