For more complex topics, a specific reason text may be helpful. E.g. Using for example plural nouns, lists of several values or very content specific explanations is not possible or only with flaws in the grammar. For this purpose there are Reason Texts for answer options. This is only possible if "The user can select one answer" is set in the Question Settings.

Positive Text
| For example let's assume that the customer wants to have a bike with carbon breaks and some of the recommended bikes have these breaks. Then the product recommendation card contains a positive feedback about this feature. As a default the text "Supported: carbon breaks" is displayed. This text is OK but of course very generic. That is why you are able to individualize this text to match the topic or environment of the displayed information. So the text could be: "The bike has carbon breaks". | ||||||
Negative Text
| So let's adapt the example above and assume that a bike does not have the wished carbon breaks. In this case you can enter the text "Unfortunately this bike does not have $uservalue" which results into the product reason text "Unfortunately this bike does not have carbon breaks". | ||||||
Unknown Text
| So a possible text could be "There are no information about the break type". |
Reason Variables

---|---|---|---|---|
|
- User selects carbon breaks → "The bike has carbon breaks"
- User selects steels breaks → "The bike has steel breaks"
- User selects aluminum breaks → "The bike has aluminum breaks"
- etc. ...
Reason Variables

- Carbon is the material of the breaks
- One battery is contained
- Two batteries are contained
