A proposal for you:

Can you make a block with GENERAL Leaders Ranking?

I tried to import a quizz from your archive and I receive this error:

Can't reproduce. I exported a quiz I created and then I imported it:

A small error. When I reply to a review ( because I am the author of that review ) I am not redirected back and I receive the next error. Good or not the reply of that review is posted.

Yeah, that's a 4.4.4 thing and will affect all resources that uses reviews:

Changed the default parameter in the `IPS\Content\Review::url` method.'

I will have to release a new version. 😣

Hello Adriano,

 

Where should i give access to create quizzess to other GROUPS on my forum? Can you make a printscreen or something like that?

[Adriano Faria]

Click in the padlock of each category you have and you will see the permissions there.

What about an individual member? For example I dont want to give access to all MODERATORS to create quizzes.

[Adriano Faria]

Edit the member on ACP. Probably there will be a tan for Quizzes there.

LOVE THIS APP! Wonderful.

Question: When I promote the quiz, the thumbnail image does not appear in the Our Picks page or block.

Thoughts?

Thanks

Silly question before I test it: did you select an image in the promote popup, right?

Some men are born stupid, others achieve stupidity, and others have stupidity thrust upon them! In my case, it was all three 🙄

I'm curious. What exactly happens when I change questions in a live, already used, quiz? Imagine I have 50 questions and I want to change some of the questions each month so that that people cannot share the questions so easily. I won't change the number of questions, just the actual questions. Do the existing scores simply remain (that's what I'm hoping)? To remain fair, I would change for questions of equal difficulty.

Thanks Adriano.

Nothing. You can't add or remove questions because that will impact in leaders ranking but edit don't.... I don't know if you're fixing a typo or simply changing the whole question.

My idea was to change the whole question but not change the total number of questions. So I just tried it and it works. You can't add a question, obviously, but you can 'edit' a question and change whatever you want there. So if you want to add/delete questions to keep the quiz fresh, you can and it does not seem to affect the grades/leaderboard. For me this is good. Happy.

Minor Feature suggestions: 

For study-mode quizzes I think it would be nice if it had the option to have the explanation auto-appear instead of having to click the explanation button.

It would be nice if one could use rich text formatting for the quiz question itself as well (not just in the explanation).

@Adriano Faria  We can't get the Discussion Topic to work no matter what settings we try.  

May have figured it out, will edit again if issue persists.

Edit #2: Issue still persists.  It creates the topic once a quiz is submitted, but with the "Create a new post in topic when someone completes the quiz?" option turned on, no new posts are added as members complete the quiz.

Here is the topic created after making a test quiz:

We've had 3 accounts complete the quiz with no new posts added to the topic.

I’m aware but I really don’t want to rekeae a Beta for each tiny thing found. This can wait, as it  isn’t crashing or site or avoiding the quiz to work.

I’ll send a PM tomorrow with a file edit to fix it.

Sorry, it was 3AM... Said I'm aware because someone else said something similar, which I couldn't reproduce there and can't now:

I will release a new version to fix a review link issue then if it insists, send a PM; I'll take a look in your board.

[Adriano Faria]

What's New in Version 1.4.0 Beta 7:

• Fix error on review link on widgets (link to page 2)

[ahc]

I’ll try it on my test website and see if I can get it to work.

[BankFodder]

This sounds like a great idea and obviously lots of people like it very much.

I have just a couple of questions – firstly, I suppose that it can be set to be used in only one particular sub- forum?

Second thing is that I certainly don't have time to devise quizzes. Are there sources of quizzes available – either for free or for payment?

Thanks

Not sure I follow. Forum is one app. Quizzes is another. It has nothing to do with the other.

You can find a plenty of questions and answers in Google. 

[BankFodder]

Thanks for this. But do we find them in a format that can be simply imported into your app – or do we then have to do enter them manually.

I'm sort of hoping that there is a.CSV file format or something so that ready-made quizzes can simply be added.

[Adriano Faria]

I can’t guess what type of questions and answers you, John Doe and Mary Doe wants, that’s why it doesn’t has a “bank” of Q&A and that’s why there’s a import tool.

Requests like this seems like install a new forum with a lot of topics and posts with the content you think suits your needs. That’s not possible.

I suppose what I was hoping is that other people who use the quiz app, have prepared their own quizzes and maybe would like to share them with others or even sell them and that they would be available in and in portable form so that one simply import the file and the quiz is ready to go.

[Adriano Faria]

They’re able to do it if they want to share. They can export and attach it here so all you need to do is import but I don’t remember anyone doing this, unfortunately.
