Q: Can I create a survey with Promolayer?
A: Promolayer does not have a dedicated survey (questionnaire) feature. However, you can create a simple question-style popup in a display: place a question in the popup and add two buttons such as "Yes" and "No", or add a select box or checkbox to the display's form. For full-featured surveys, use our sister app Asklayer.
Details
There are two ways to ask a question in a Promolayer display.
Method | Best for | How to check the answers |
Question text + "Yes" / "No" buttons | Simple two-choice questions | Clicks cannot be counted per button. The report only shows the total clicks for the whole display. |
Form custom fields (select box, checkbox, etc.) | Recording each visitor's answer, or more than two choices | Answers are saved to a list. Export the list as CSV and tally them in a spreadsheet such as Excel. |
Limitations
There is no dedicated survey feature, and Promolayer does not show per-choice results or charts. To tally form answers, export the list as CSV.
Only two custom fields are available: Custom (1) and Custom (2). You can ask up to two of your own questions in a form.
Available field types are Text, Number, Date, Select box, and Check box. Radio buttons and multi-select questions (choosing several options in one question) are not supported.
Button clicks are counted per display, not per button. Buttons set to Close display are not counted as clicks.
