It's possible to make a add-on that will do the compilation all the results of a user ? Will it be easy ?

Exemple, a user make 3 quiz and the script can give the overall result for that 3 quiz, by doing this we will be able to see the "best" user...

The quiz will be updated for vBulletin v3.0 ?

Greetings,

After reading through 33 pages of this and visiting some of the sites, I have to say GREAT HACK, but even better support.

I am wondering though: I saw two questions from users who wanted to insert images as part of the questions. One tried and couldn't (post 392-394) and another (post422) that asked the same question but no reply as yet.

Is embedding images (and having them show) in the Quiz question or answer possible, and has anyone done it successfully?

Regards,

Matt

Yes, you can use images. Just use regular HTML in the quiz question. Example:

This is an amazing hack. Many, many thanks for creating such an inventive and fun add-on for our community!

I agree that it'd be great if scores could be totalled in percentages, rather than points alone. It makes the hardest/easiest quiz section a little quirky. But that's not a huge deal. All in all, I can't wait to bring this live on my forums! :D Thanks again!

Just wanted to say...a little late...that I love this hack. It didn't work too well in the beginning for us, but it turned out awesome...and I just wanted to say thanks! You're an awesome hacker! :)

Cool hack!

One problem though, installed sweet but only thing that dont work correctly is adding questions, I add a question it seems to go though but when I try to view them its not there also when viewing the questions on quiz.php it does not appears there also. I went and looked at the database table its not there, it’s like I never added it to the game.

I reinstalled it three times, still same thing. All templates installed, and tables installed. Followed directions 100%

Any thoughts?

Vb: 2.2.5
PHP: 4.0.6
MySQL: 3.23.36

You have to make a quiz. The questions section is for editing quiz questions. Without a quiz there is nowhere for the questions to go.

Is there a way to add this hack to your homepage instead of the forums?

I'm using vbulletin 2.2.6 and a portal from phpPortals and would love to install this hack on my homepage.

(I'm trying to attract more visitors to my homepage instead of the board itself).

Yes, I know and that?s the weird part because I've made the quiz and even approved it, I did many different combinations. The quiz questions never added no matter what I try.

Thanks! Anyone got ideas?

I belive there is an addon for this hack located here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=42000

Not sure if thats what you wanted, but seems to be.

I don't think that's really what I'm looking for, I want the actual quiz to be outside the vb folder.

The Movie Forums have it on their main page, but that's because they simply installed vbulletin on the main page, instead of http://domain.com/vb/quiz.php they have http://domain.com/quiz.php . So their vBulletin is actually on http://domain.com/index.php

Most every other board I've seen has a homepage at domain.com and the bulletin board itself is domain.com/vb (or domain.com/forums)

*Hopes this isn't too confusing*

Edit the quiz.php to find the following:
Replace that with:
The /forum/ is your forums directory that the quiz.php is suppose to be at. I think that would allow that quiz to function in the root directory of your domain. You probably have to copy your logo to the root as well. That?s much info I can provide on how to access the hack from the root directory, if I'm wrong please correct me someone. :beard:

First of all, great hack. My members have really enjoyed it so far.

I've taken a quick look through the posts, but couldn't find the answer I was looking for. I was wondering if there was a where you can have a custom message at the end of the quiz. For example, say I have a quiz on networking. Say they fail the quiz. The end message would be something like:
Sorry, you have not passed the test. Your score was xx. If you would like to read more more on networking, visit url.

And kinda have it so whatever the subject is replace networking, have have a unique url for each quiz. Would this be possible?

Thanks.

Hi TWTCommish,

Could i edit your install script to suit my own needs for my hack?
I'll leave a note saying it was yours.

Ryan

Sure. :)

Hey, I'm installing this hack for someone and I followed the directions exactly and when I try to access the quiz page I get this error.

Database error in vBulletin 2.2.6:

Invalid SQL: SELECT quizid, quiztitle, description, timestamp, userid, catid, imagename
FROM quiz
WHERE approve = 1
ORDER BY timestamp DESC
LIMIT
mysql error: You have an error in your SQL syntax near '' at line 5

Is there something wrong with the quiz.php file?

No, there's nothing wrong with the file: you didn't read all of the instructions.txt file. :)

haha, now I feel stupid.

Thanks a lot, and happy birthday!

Thanks :)


Yeah, Happy Birthday!

Thanks guys. :D

Ok, I had this badboy working great, but noticed it didn't work AFTER I installed VBPortal.

Anyone have any luck getting this working w/ VBPortal installed?

TIA.

I do and it works fine!

Hey TWTCommish,
I posted in this thread (post #487 and #490) for help, can ya check it out. Thanks dude!

The quiz has not worked for me, since I installed vbPortal. I just get a blank page that says done.

Perhaps you might have some idea on how to get it back working???

Great hack, now gone.

Thanks Mark

greatness

/me clicks install

If you are going to install vbportal on your forum after you have done this hack you will need to go back and run the installation script again to add the custom templates. If you had it installed before the database tables should still be there.

By default, the style for vbportal overides all of your custom templates and you will have to add them back in.

Hope this helps.

Ps....by the way this hack is killer and I had around 25 people just to sign up and take the quiz....

Mike

Didn't see anything about this... is there a running point total (all quiz's) ? Or is it only a per quiz score total?

VERY cool hack either way!

Ok, got the hack working with VB Portal.

This hack is damn damn sweet. Thanks a lot TWTCommish :)

is anyone working on integrating this with lesane's store hack ? This is so popular on our forums , we give 10 points per correct answer and it's very time consuming doing it all manually. :D

I've installed it, and I just get a white page. Check http://www.zelaron.com/forums/quiz.php if you wish.

I have re-run the first part of the install-quiz.php only installing the quiz templates.

The quiz now works again.

Thanks Mark

The hack works great, but Im having a problem with the images. I started off without using any images, but when I use an image for the quizzes I added later, the same image shows up for all of my quizzes, even previous ones.

Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks.

Yes, same problem here.

Same here. I had to take out the image section in the templates.

I added the "quizzes" diectory to the main images dir and chmodded to 777. Still get a permissions error on trying to add an image. :(

How did they get it like MovieForums quiz page. I want mine like that so spill the beans!

Is anyone working on integrating this with lesane's store ?

Still no luck!

Even though I didn?t get help I tired my best to install this hack but no accomplishment. Everything in the installation file was precisely followed to its exact line for line instructions. I've even installed this 3 times twice on 2.2.6 and once on 2.2.5 but no luck I still get this error. I?ve posted an image to show the error within this post.

This is my first problem hack :(

You have to approve the quiz in the Admin CP after you make it. :)

Thanks Boofo, but I've done that also. :(

Have you added any questions to the quiz? :)
