Hello, can a consent form be uploaded for a specific study during the preview/testing stage, or only when setting up a session?  When previewing, the first page asks participants to read the consent form, but clicking on it of course won't work since it's not linked to any documents.  Thank you.

I ran a study in winter 2020-21, and I am now trying to download the data again. I go to the Sessions page, select 'Finished,' and then choose 'Download data' but I keep getting an error "Unexpected error occurred. Please try again."
Is there any other way I can access these data?
Thank you!

Hi everyone, We just noticed that our images have a set of numbers added to the beginning of their names in the resources pages (and in the "stimuli" section of our study).  For example:
  "type": "image",
  "content": "61815d56f1288d60117e67d4_p1.jpg",
  "width": "50%"

The original file name was p1.jpg. 
We're not sure if this is due to the platform update or because we transferred ownership of our program to a different user.  Same thing seems to have happened to our audio files. Everything seems to work fine, other than this addition to all our image and audio file names.  Could you please clarify?  Thanks!

In one part of my study, I use multiple text box responses. Before the grammar renderer update, all these behaved perfectly fine. After the update, all of the textbox responses still behave normally, except for one question where I limited the size of the text field using "max_char": 2.
When this particular text field comes up, although there seems to be a cursor focused at the beginning of the text box, the cursor does not respond to any keypress (you can't write anything). However, if I use my mouse, I can highlight the little bit of whitespace in the corner of the text box, and then enter the response.
I removed the character limit for this particular trial, and the problem went away (but the text box was no longer limited to 2 chars). Putting the character limit back in reintroduces the problem.
I'm wondering if, even though I am seeing what looks like a cursor focused in the corner of the "max_char": 2 text box, for some reason, the focus is not automatically being set within the limits of the 2 char text box.
Not a huge deal to me personally (I can really do without the character limit, tbh) but it was working before!

Dear Researchers,

We are excited to announce the availability of the December Study Grammar update, to be effective on December 27, 2021! For December, we are bringing a host of new features and optimizations:

New Features

• Beta Support for Safari on MacOS, and all browsers on iOS and PadOS: The FindingFive website is now fully accessible to both participants and researchers using the Safari browser on MacOS as well as all mobile browsers on iOS and PadOS. The support for Apple devices and software is currently in beta, meaning that some bugs may exist.
  
  For participants to be able to use Safari to participate in your study, you must launch a new session. Existing active sessions are still closed to Safari users, and will only work with Firefox or Chrome on a desktop or laptop.
  
  
• Dark Mode: It is now possible to display trial content using the dark mode (black background and white text) by setting the color scheme of a trial to "dark". 
  
  
• Duration timer: It is now possible to display a duration timer for visible responses, indicating how long participants have spent on that response. Please check out the documentation on responses for details.
  

• Fixed an issue where the visual feedback for clickable images or videos isn't properly displayed
  
• Fixed an issue where studies with identical duration settings for the trial and a response within the trial were permitted to run. This setup will result in a so-called racing condition, and is now banned. 
  

• Internal updates to the text, mouse_reset, mouse_position, and the keypress responses to improve the responsiveness of these responses and the precision of reaction time calculation.
  

Hello,
I have been collecting the data on FindingFive through MTurk and recently the quality of the data has been pretty low. It would be helpful to be able to install bot-checks at the beginning of the experiment, which would disqualify bots from completing the study!

So I've seen the error message "Your study contains coding errors we cannot automatically detect yet" before and I've managed to figure out what went wrong. However, I am completely puzzled by this one.
The study in question has already been fully previewed, and I've launched it as a session twice over the past couple of weeks. Worked perfectly fine, collected data. No code was changed.
Just went to preview the study today (want to modify some parts) and I am getting the above error message and I don't understand why. None of the code has been changed, and it had been previously working just fine!

Hi FF team,

I'm presenting two text options for a choice response and to make analysis easier i wanted to use the "target" feature of the choice response. I've written my response like so:

Hello!
I am trying to create an experiment were people rate emojis for valence and arousal. The total number of emojis is 54, divided into 3 lists (20 - 20 - 14). I have randomised the order of the emojis in each list. Now, my problem is the following:
In every list, I want two images to be presented below each emoji; one picture indicating 9 levels of valence and one picture showing nine arousal levels. Below each picture, a rating option (1-9 Likert scale) should be available. This is the code in Trial Templates for list 1:

"list1":{
  "type":"basic",
  "stimuli":["angry","anxious_sweat",
            "beaming","blow_kiss",
            "confused","dizzy",
            "enraged","fearful",
            "grin_eyes","grin_sweat",
            "halo","kissing",
            "neutral","pensive",
            "savouring","smiling",
            "steam_nose","tongue",
            "unamused","winking"],
  "stimulus_pattern":{"order":"random"},
  "auto_advance":true,
  "responses":["valence_resp", "arousal_resp"]
},


1: Will the rating responses work the way I have included them in the code?
2: How do I include the two images in the stimuli as stable stimuli in each trial?

Thank you very much in advance!
Best,
Katerina

Hi community! 

I'm trying to key map the Submit button for text responses similarly to how I would key map the continue_button property on basic trial templates. I looked through the response study grammar, and it doesn't seem like we're able to edit the Submit button yet as it's not recognized as a property. I was wondering if we'll be able to do this in the future??...

Or (and this is probably just me being hopeful) if anyone has found a work-around for this?

Thanks in advance!
