1. Problem Description

Limesurvey has a template editor which allows users to create and modify templates used when displaying surveys. These templates allow survey administrators to adjust the look and feel of their surveys and brand them as well. Currently the documentation for the template editor is out of date and needs to be brought up to date with the latest version of limesurvey. Furthermore information is diveded nto three different pages containing redundant information. This has to be improved. Cropped screenshots should also be inserted to visually reference the documentation and the software.

  2. Explore limesurvey's template editor and compare it to the existing documentation.

  5. Rewrite the template editor documentation.
  6. Insert cropped screenshots where needed.
