Data records/model
Poll slips
"Survey slips" are data records that are saved for each complete participation in a poll.
"Survey slips" can be deactivated in the plugin settings. The option is activated by default.
If you use user-defined answers (free text fields) this option must be activated.
If this option is deactivated, answers are saved in answer data records. This gives a slightly better performance. In addition, the survey can be modified while it is running without making the export function unusable by changing the data structure.
If this option is activated, surveys begun by logged-in frontend users can be continued at a later time.
