Deploying form issue

[adebayo88]

Hi everyone trust we"re all doing good? please help me out i can’t deploy my form and this is the errors message: The name column for the ‘bx1xf60’ choice list contains these duplicates: ‘50’. Duplicate names will be impossible to identify in analysis unless a previous value in a cascading select differentiates them. If this is intentional, you can set the allow_choice_duplicates setting to ‘yes’. Learn more: XLSForm.org.

Choice duplicate

Hi @maggib, I found the duplicate that i have highlighted with yellow and marked the font with red within list_name lf3sx85 whose name prefer_not_to_answer is seen repeated twice within list_name lf3sx85. For your ease check row number 89 and 93 under choices tab. [Image 1] The principle behind this is that each list_name should have unique code under it’s associated name. e.g. this is not allowed … list_name name test a test a test a … but this is allowed … list_name na…

It would always be helpful to validate your XLSForm through this online validator to identify syntax issues within your XLSForm.
