Hello,

I am currently trying to register my first web experiment, and I'm currently encountering a problem/question. I would like the participants in my study to go through a training task, they are supposed to complete the task online on 13 separate days. Each participant is either in the control group or experimental group.

How is it possible to realize this or is it even possible? In the desktop version it is easy to do this with the group ID but in the web version I can only choose between random or sequential (I assume, this means every time someone logs on the get a new group id?) or url query parameter. Of course, I don't want the group IDs to be random since every participant is supposed to keep his or her same ID, and if sequential means what I think it means, I don't want that either. I don't know what url query parameter means, and what I can do with it.

I would really appreciate some help with this, and if there is any other way to realize this than via group ID, I would love to hear it.

Thanks in advance!

Best regards,
Nadine
