Hi
I installed your plugin on my self-hosted Wordpress 2.1 blog, and it crashed the site, saying “Call to undefined function str_ireplace in kBsurvey.php”.
Any idea what happened? I’d like to use this plugin, it looks great.
Thanks
David
You’re using an old version of PHP. I should add a note to the documentation that this plugin requires PHP 5.
Thanks for the help!
Cheers
David
I had the same problem, but was glad to find this page. Thanks.

I get this after answering the demo survey once:
Sorry, but there was a problem with the information you submitted. Please send this error message to me so I can fix it:
Bad nonce
I am not terrible with PHP although this is my first time attempting anything survey related. I have created the survey no problem however every time ’submit’ is clicked to begin the survey, it goes right back to my home page. The same thing happened when I initially tried to run the demo survey as well. It is probably something obvious and little I am missing, but any help is truly appreciated. Thank you.
To all:
I’m swamped finishing my dissertation right now. Unfortunately, that means I do not have time at the moment to help.
From one academic to another Adam I understand where you are coming from. If you at all find the time it will be greatly appreciated. Even if you can point me in the right direction. Desperate is an overstatement, but I’d like to get this thing running as soon as I can. I will keep working to see if I can figure it out.
Nevermind found this: [link]
I posted this in the wp-2.5 upgrades section… didn’t see the kb survey place to post. This is a reply to Dave’s post as well.
I installed KB Survey on two installs of wordpress. It didn’t work on either. It loads, but when you click to take the survey it loads the home page.
I went to the demo of KB Survey and notice that it worked, but it also had a different URL than my installs. Turns out that it does not work, in 2.5 anyway if your permalinks are set to default.
I changed the
I changed permalinks to day and name in my devlopment install and the survey works perfectly. Unfortunately I can’t change the permalink setting on my public wordpress install. (I took over as admin on a pre-existing install with no permalinks set (has the ugly default ?page=… which does not work with the survey.
I’ve looked around for a rewrite rule for just the KB Survey page, but rewrites for some reason baffle me. If anyone has a suggestion for a rewrite… my install is under a wordpress subdirectory.
OR, is there a code fix that would allow surveys to work with default permalink settings ?
I really need a good survey plugin and yours is the only good one I’ve found (multi-question). If there’s a fix it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mike
I have a question, but since mr. brown is busy, it seems i’ll have to wait. in the meantime, i found some answers to above questions, as worked for me:
>>the main page of my WP becomes blank… once i deactivated it… >>things are back to normal again… could u help? thanks
make sure that you loaded the kbsurvey folder that has the files in, NOT the kbsurvey folder that has the kbsurvey folder in it. =)
Mike answered Dave’s question, as it says in the documention, your permalinks can’t have question marks.
MY question was that when submitting results it says “Oops–there was an error. Your responses were not saved. Please reload to try again.”
i’m thinking there is some saving command that is off somewhere. but i don’t know how to find it!
I would love to use this plugin but am having the same problem as sese: when you complete the survey it cannot write to the survey page. I have tried changing the directory / file permissions to 777 or 666 but with no effect. I get the following error:
Warning: require(/home/teach/public_html/wp-content/plugins/kb-survey/surveys/customers.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/teach/public_html/wp-content/plugins/kb-survey/inc/functions.inc.php on line 381
Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘/home/teach/public_html/wp-content/plugins/kb-survey/surveys/customers.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp’) in /home/teach/public_html/wp-content/plugins/kb-survey/inc/functions.inc.php on line 381
If anybody else has run into this problem and found a solution please let us know what the fix is.
Cheers!
It would be cool to be able to input a direct survey on a page or post by passing something like [kbsurvey id=1].
Also pretty URL’s to direct surveys links would be nice.. domain.com/survey1 domain.com/survey2
I can set that up using htaccess but not everyone can do that very easily.
Multiple Choice with checkbox’s to record mutliple answers, I know this is already in todo’s but would it be hard to implament this myself? Any thoughts?
I got an error when loading the page with the survey. Where the survey should appear it said
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: scandir() in /home/4/d/7/25170/25170/public_html/wp-content/plugins/kb-survey/inc/functions.inc.php on line 701At last!!! A plugin with great documentation! Thanks!!!
Hi,
is there possibility to send survey result to hard-coded email?
I think it can be great feature.
