    Hi There

    I have what i hope is a fairly basic requirement but i can’t for the life of me work out how to do it.

    I have a form with about 65 questions on it (don’t worry its a form people are willing to complete)

    For each of the questions there are up to 3 choices available.

    Each choice has a value of either A, B or C.

    At the end of the form I would like to be able to count up the number of A’s, B’s & C’s and present that in the form of

    eg: 17 A’s, 21 B’s, 12 C’s

    Does anyone know a straightforward way to do this?

    Thanks in advance

    Cheers

    Scott

    You can’t use this shortcode for this.

    The simplest, most visible way to solve your problem is making 3 additional number fields for each question field with standard value 1. You can trigger if this additional (A B or C for question 1 for example) number field is ‘shown’ with conditional logic. At the end of your form you can than make 3 different number field calculations. Because of conditional logic it will only count the visible numbers (even if you hide it for the users themselves).

    Faster is to custome code something.
