Single Page View

Using Single Page View to Display Multiple Questions on the Same Page

Single Page View - For Natural Topic Grouping

Single Page View - How to display multiple questions on the same page

By default, Pollfish shows one question per page to your respondents.

But there are times when you might want to show multiple questions together in a group, say for shorter surveys or when you want respondents to answer questions in context around a topic. If that's what brought you here, then you're looking for our Single Page View feature.

 

Where to Find Single Page View

Once you've loged in to your Pollfish account and created a project, or navigated to your existing survey draft...

  1. From the Add Questions menu button, add your questions to a question group

  2. In the group settings, toggle "Single Page View" to ON

  3. Once enabled, the selected questions within that group will appear on the same page to respondents, and can be viewed using the Preview Survey button (in the top right of your screen)

Example Use Cases

Customers asked us for the functionality to show multiple questions on the same page for a variety of reasons. Here's just a few requests, to give you inspiration:

  1. Customer Satisfaction Surveys: "I'd like to group multiple related CSAT questions to minimize clicks and respondent fatigue"

  2. Product Feedback: "We'd like to ask questions about features, usability, and expectations all in one view"

  3. Behavioral Research: "By asking similar topic questions on a single page, we'd reduce cognitive interruption between questions by grouping them logically"

Answer Display Logic

A Smarter Way to Show Relevant Answers

Using Answer Display Logic

Pollfish now gives you more control over your survey flow with Answer Display Logic, a powerful feature available directly within the Questionnaire Builder. This enhancement allows you to dynamically tailor answer options based on a respondent's previous inputs—making your surveys more personalized, relevant, and efficient.

What is Answer Display Logic?

Answer Display Logic enables you to show specific answer choices only when certain conditions are met. This means you can tailor questions to the unique experiences or characteristics of each respondent, enhancing clarity and avoiding irrelevant options.

For example: If a respondent says they subscribe to Netflix in an earlier question, you can set up logic so that only "Stranger Things" appears in a follow-up question asking what shows they’ve watched recently. Respondents who did not select Netflix won’t see that option.

How to Set Answer Display Logic

Follow these steps to conditionally display an answer based on prior behavior:

  1. Log in and create or open your draft survey
  2. Select the question where you want answers to be shown conditionally.
  3. Click the "Edit Answers Display Logic" tab on the left-hand side (just below the "Edit Advanced Logic" section) OR click on the Answers Display Logic icon next to the specific answer you want to conditionally display.
  4. Set the conditions that must be met—these can be based on:

    • Answers to previous questions
    • Hidden variable labels
    • Targeting parameters (from your audience setup)
  5. Answers with display logic will remain hidden unless the defined conditions are met.
  6. You can use one rule to show or hide one or more answer options within a question.
  7. That’s it! You’re all set to deliver a tailored, intelligent survey experience.

Where to find Answer Display Logic

How to set Answer Display Logic

Compatible Question Types and Features

Answer Display Logic is currently supported on the following question types:

  • Single Selection
  • Multiple Selection
  • Ranking
  • Matrix (rows/columns, bipolar statements only)

Other features supported:

  • Display logic on [Other] and [None of the Above] options

Works with "Shuffle answers" feature

Limitations and Incompatible Features

To help you avoid errors, it’s important to know what Answer Display Logic does not currently support:

  • Only one rule can be applied to each answer option, but that rule can contain multiple conditions using AND/OR logic.
  • Not compatible with the following question types:
    • Slider
    • Open-ended (including Numeric Open Ended)
    • NPS
    • Description
    • Rating Stars
    • Drill Down
    • All Research methods (e.g. Conjoint, A/B Testing)
  • If a question also has Skip Logic, ‘’Answers Display Logic’’ rules will be evaluated first, followed by Skip Logic.
  • Each question must include at least one answer that's always visible to all respondents—meaning it’s not carried forward and has no display logic applied. This ensures there's never a case where all options are hidden.
  • Question shuffling (also referred to as ‘’Randomize Questionnaire’’) and Answer Display Logic cannot be used together. 

Editing and Removing Answer Display Logic

Once your survey is live, you can still edit or remove Answer Display Logic rules (‘’Edit Survey’’ option) for any remaining responses.

Additional ADL Issues & Error Handling

Pollfish will flag any logic issues automatically, such as:

  • Setting conditions based on a question the respondent hasn’t yet answered

However, if you create Answer Display Logig rules based on a question that may be skipped due to Skip Logic, some respondents may never encounter the conditional answer option. It's important to carefully review your survey flow to ensure all intended respondents have access to the relevant questions and answers.

Save & Restore Surveys w/ Versioning!

🛠️ Save & Restore Surveys w/ Versioning!

Ever made a ton of changes to your survey and wished you could go back to a previous version? Sort of how you can in Google Docs? Now you can!

It never fails… your heads down making changes to your survey and realize you went a bit too far… ever wish you could view that previous version?! Why oh why do I have to start all over?! Good news - with Pollfish’s new Survey Versioning tool you don't have to.

With Pollfish’s Survey Versioning, you can save, restore, and manage multiple versions of your survey seamlessly. You can save up to 5 snapshots of your survey while it’s in draft status and restore any of them in seconds. Plus, we’ve got temporary autosaves happening every 3 minutes to make sure nothing gets lost.

 

How Survey Versioning Works:

See your current version: From the questionnaire builder page, simply click on the "rewind clock" icon in the top right corner. A popup will display on the right showing your current version and any past autosaves. In the case of a brand new survey, only the current version will show.

 

Find your autosaved versions: Once you've made a change, you see your first autosaved version appear, and every 3 minutes, another one will appear. Autosaves max out at 5 total, however you can manually save as many versions as you'd like.

 

Naming, restoring, and deleting versions: If you click on a previously saved or autosaved version, it will display that older version of your survey on the left (which is shown below). From here, you'll also see 3 options pop up. You can choose to name the version (which additional saves it), restore the version (which makes it your current version again), or delete the version.

 

Confirmation of naming, restoring, and deleting: If you click to delete or restore, you will be prompted to confirm the change. If you click to rename a version, you'll be asked to pick a name for the version, and optionally add a description of the version.

 

Versioning history: As you continue, all of your saved versions will be filed in one folder, with your autosaves saved in another folder.

This versioning upgrade can be especially beneficial when you're collaborating with others in the same Pollfish account, trying to craft the best possible questionnaire.

 

Try Questionnaire Versioning with Pollfish!

Questionnaire versioning allows you to save, restore, and manage multiple versions of your survey effortlessly. Instead of worrying about making irreversible changes, you can capture and go back to any previous version of your questionnaire. Pollfish automatically creates temporary autosave points to protect your work, ensuring nothing is lost.

In summary, with Pollfish Questionnaire Versioning, you can:

  • Save up to 5 snapshots per survey while it’s in draft status.
  • Restore any previous version of your questionnaire with a simple click.
  • Enjoy automatic autosaves every 3 minutes to avoid losing any changes.
  • Manage changes easily, with the flexibility to experiment and fine-tune your survey.

Target Granularly w/ Nested Quotas!

🧩 Target Granularly w/ Nested Quotas!

Picture this. You get your survey results, and drill down into males vs. females, and then down into rural vs. urban, but, “oh no!”, of 400, there’s 367 in one segment, and only 33 in the other!

With Pollfish Nested Quotas, you can ensure you get enough respondents in any selectable demographic or behavioral subgroup. Nesting can go 3 levels deep, supports exclusions, and can be performed with grouped or individual options.

Create Nested Quotas in 4 steps:

Step 1: Select the first demographic/behavior you want to nest with. You can do this by simply scrolling to the desired dropdown selection from the targeting criteria on your "audiences" tab from within your survey. There will be a small grey "merge" icon on the right of all listed criteria. Simply click it to begin a nested quota.

Step 2: Select the second demographic/behavior you want to nest with. For instance, if you want to create a nested quota containing answer selections within both "marital status" and "gender", you can either search or scroll to "gender" and select it.

Step 3: Select your answer choices from each of your nesting selections. Please note: If one of your demographic/behavior selections has only 2 choices, both will be automatically selected.

Step 4: Edit your nested quotas to the desired # of respondents per each subgroup. In most cases, you'll want an even distribution between the quotas, which is why it will preset in that way. However, you can edit as needed for your particular use case.

That's it!

Try Nested Quotas with Pollfish!

Nested quotas allow you to precisely target specific subgroups in your survey by layering demographic and behavioral criteria. Instead of just selecting broad categories (like age or gender), you can combine and intersect criteria, ensuring proportional representation across deeper levels. This helps avoid oversampling one group while leaving others underrepresented.

In summary, with Pollfish nesting, you can:

  • Ensure balanced quotas within multiple demographic layers (e.g., age + gender + location).
  • Prevent bias in survey results by guaranteeing sufficient responses from key subgroups.
  • Support exclusions and more flexible quota management.
  • Maximize accuracy in data collection by refining audience targeting.

Pollfish's New Platform Design

Pollfish's New Platform Design

Pollfish has revamped its user interface to enhance the experience for survey creators and to pave the way for numerous exciting features this year. 

There are two main changes.

Update #1: New survey summary page.

Section 1: Survey Overview.

Need a quick overview of your survey? This section provides information on survey status. Depending on your survey type, this may include statuses such as draft, pending, paused, active, completed. You will also find other relevant information such as incidence rate (IR), estimated length of interview (LOI), completion rate, languages, translations, a brief preview, and easy access to downloads.

Section 2: Survey Performance.

Looking for insight into completion time? This section helps you visualize your survey's completion rate with a straightforward time series chart, and additional details on completion.

Section 3: Audience Snapshot.

Want to verify your target audience quickly? Obtain a concise snapshot of the selected audience(s), including all preselected demographic targeting criteria.

Section 4: Status Funnel.

Curious about drop-offs in your survey? This section enables you to see the number of people reaching each stage of the survey. Depending on your survey this may include stages such as accepted, passed profiling, passed screening, started survey, and finished survey.

Update #2: New menu navigation.

You might notice a subtle change in Pollfish's layout. Folders and surveys now appear in a panel on the left, while account details have moved from the top-right corner to the bottom-left corner.

This update allows direct access to surveys nested in folders from the side panel and, more importantly, prepares the interface for advantageous features arriving this year.
