Placeholders are special codes that can be used to display dynamic information to your panelists. Dynamic information is information other then static text. Placeholders can show information that is attached to your products such as the blindingcode or description, placeholders can also contain other information such as information about the questionnaire or the panelist filling in the questionnaire.

Placeholders can be accessed from the rich editor box which becomes available to the user when the user clicks anywhere in the question text box. You can also access placeholders in other places such as email templates, customised questionnaire headers or footers or reports.

Click a placeholder and it will be added in your question or screen.

When running the questionnaire this placeholder will be replaced with the image of the active products.

Depending on where you are in the questionnaire and the type of questionnaire you will see different placeholders.
