 * I would like to add a question .. on a scale of 1 to 10 1 being never 10 being
   always how often do you attend the national convention?
    And have 10 buttons 
   on a horizontal line that you can select one of them. Is there a way to do that?

 * I haven’t got anything like that built in to the plugin yet but I do believe 
   it’s a very good idea. If I were to do it it would be a slider though as opposed
   to buttons/checkboxes
 * either something [like this](http://jqueryui.com/slider/#steps) or just the HTML5‘
   range’ element.
 * For now, you could just use the number element and define minimum of 1, max of
   10, required = yes

 * yes your example would be great. I think horizontal checkboxes would be ok to.
   what ever is easiest.
    On your suggestion that’s what I did end up using.

 * I would actually like to be able to add a total of 12 checkboxes but have them
   be split up in maybe 3 rows of 4 opposed to all being in a vertical line. Is 
   this possible?

 * Adding 12 checkboxes can be done with a bit of custom code. See this thread: 
   [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/increasing-number-of-answers?replies=5](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/increasing-number-of-answers?replies=5)
 * as for putting them in rows or whatever, it’s really unlikely that I’m going 
   to add functionality for templating surveys any time soon.

 * I hope you change your mind, I think horizontal answers (radio button, check 
   boxes, etc) could really help. When the answers are vertical, the page becomes
   extrememly lengthy and intimidating the surveyors.
