KB Survey is now available for download over at the WP.org repository.

Download KB Survey

KB Survey will be on wordpress.org as soon as they get around to approving the plugin. My last plugins have taken weeks to get processed over there, so it may be a while…..

Want to administer multi-item surveys in Wordpress? Want to be able to export the results to spreadsheet or statistical software? Check out the KB Survey plugin’s new demo:

KB Survey demo

You would need to be logged in as admin to see how it exports to a spreadsheet, but you can see how the survey works and see a summary of the results online.

This plugin is mainly intended for folks who want to export their survey data to something like Stata, SPSS, SAS, or even Excel. There are simpler plugins for one-question sidebar polls or for collecting visitor feedback. Check out Lorelle’s review .

I’ve got a new plugin on the horizon that I’m currently testing: KB Survey. This is not one of those polling plugins that puts a one-question poll in your sidebar. This is for administering genuine, honest-to-goodness surveys with multiple questions. You can view the aggregate results online, or export them to offline spreadsheet (e.g. Excel) or statistical software (e.g. Stata) for further analysis. You can open the survey to all comers, or restrict access by making it private.

Sort of a low-key “SurveyMonkey” type thing for self-hosted Wordpress. Watch for a demo soon.

My, how I’ve branched out from my first few plugins, which were just simple widgets. I guess I shouldn’t have called this my “widgets” blog when I started it.
