I am building a survey in XLS and I’m trying to create a question type where the user selects multiple options from a list based on responses they gave in a previous repeated section.
The respondent provides information on household members (names, occupation, etc). We then ask another question asking if any household members have worked for a specific business we are collaborating with in our research project. If they answer yes, we want the respondent to identify which one(s).
The question type code I was using was “select_multiple${NameHH}” which is the question name in the repeated section that collects hh member names. However, when I upload the form to kobotoolbox, those question types get an error. Is it possible to do this? Or should I try another solution?
This was the solution I was trying to adapt from. Although, in our project, we would like respondents to be able to select_multiple rather than just select_one. So if the respondent is prompted to indicate “which family members work or formerly worked at x business?” They would be able to check the boxes next to the names. Does the solution work with “select_multiple” in kobotoolbox? As I have it now it doesn’t work.

Apparently the feature “select_multiple from repeat group” is not available yet
But if we expect the maximum number of choices, we can overcome the issue with an alternative solution
