This release adds a set of study configuration, results-export, and UI polish updates that improve the look and feel of studies, increases functionality, and expands result output collected.
Highlights
- Added a new Version 2.5 study template and updated the documentation to point to it.
- “Open Links in Pop-up” now allows researchers to embed links which participants open as popups, with participant engagement with links collected in results output.
- Expanded results tracking for HTML clicks, popup opens, popup durations, and related interaction details.
- Improved the skip-post button layout in one-at-a-time mode so the label no longer wraps awkwardly.
- Adds functionality for comments to be hidden, with participants having to opt-in to view comments (behavior collectable in results output)
