Hello everyone,

I am trying to randomise alternatives based on the corresponding tutorial in the site.

I have two problems:

a) When I use the fixed\_order example, only the labels are randomised and not the attributes.

b) When I am trying to use the random\_order, it does not work at all.

Thank you in advance.

Karol,  
Can you post your survey - or a cut down version. These are usually caused by users changing names from the example.  
There’s not much information - can you upload the survey or provide a link?
