Surveys for Jira is not only the most configurable survey app on the market. It also provides freedom for you to brand your surveys in any way you want.  You only need to throw in some CSS glitter, and sky is the limit as to what you can do.

...

There are two places where a survey recipient can see the rates:

  1. Email
  2. Survey form 

Email

We cannot change the way that the rates appear in the email because we don't have control over how email clients are handling things. Not to worry, there's a workaround for that: you can configure the survey settings in a way that the email contains a link to the survey, not the rating scale, see screenshots with examples:

...

  1. Write what you need a user to see in the survey form, here's an example.

    Note1: you can use variable placeholders to personalize your surveys ($$reporter$$ will change to a username in the survey form).
    Note2: you have to include #form and #SdQuestion in the end. This shows the form with questions that you set up in the survey.


  2. Click the </> button to open the source.
  3. Paste the css style for the rates to the end, after everything you have. 


    ExamplesCSS style
    Husky dogs

    When you paste the code below after your content in the Form Body field (in the source, not just in the field!) on the Form tab, you will see Husky dogs instead of the stars, like this image below.

    Code Block
    collapsetrue
    <style>
    .cpime-rating-star input[type="radio"] + label
    {background-image:url(https://cdn0.iconfinder.com/data/icons/siberian-husky-emoticons-1/512/Angry-Emoji-Emotion-Face-Expression-Feeling-512.png);background-size:36px 36px;border-radius:5px;background-repeat: no-repeat;display:inline-block;margin:0px;width:36px;height:36px;}
    .cpime-rating-star input[type="radio"]:checked + label
    {background-image:url(https://cdn0.iconfinder.com/data/icons/siberian-husky-emoticons-1/512/Smile-Emoji-Emotion-Face-Expression-Feeling-shiba-512.png);background-size:36px 36px;border-radius:5px;}
    .selected
    {background-image:url(https://cdn0.iconfinder.com/data/icons/siberian-husky-emoticons-1/512/Smile-Emoji-Emotion-Face-Expression-Feeling-shiba-512.png) !important;background-size:36px 36px;border-radius:5px;}
    </style>

    Note, you can see that as soon as 4th rate was selected so there's 4 happy huskies and one angry husky.

    Halloween time

    Another example that you can use with funny rates that can be used for surveys during Halloween time, so you can have some fun if you celebrate this holiday, of course.

    Code Block
    collapsetrue
    <style>
    .cpime-rating-star input[type="radio"] + label
    {background-image:url(http://www.iconsearch.ru/uploads/icons/iconslandvistahalloween/64x64/sad.png);background-size:36px 36px;border-radius:5px;background-repeat: no-repeat;display:inline-block;margin:0px;width:36px;height:36px;}
     
    .cpime-rating-star input[type="radio"]:checked + label
    {background-image:url(http://www.iconsearch.ru/uploads/icons/iconslandvistahalloween/64x64/smile.png);background-size:36px 36px;border-radius:5px;}
     
    .selected
    {background-image:url(http://www.iconsearch.ru/uploads/icons/iconslandvistahalloween/64x64/smile.png) !important;background-size:36px 36px;border-radius:5px;}
    </style>

    4th rate was also selected there so you see 4 happy pumpkins.

    Surveys background

    Another fun example is the background that you can use for the surveys.



  4. So, this is what we wanted to share with you so that you get the idea of how much you can do to brand your surveys. Save everything, send survey and enjoy the results.
