I guess that's all there is to say, apart from enjoy and post any comments below :)

- Zero Tolerance

Kewl mod! :cool:

Updated - I forgot to add quiz.xml into the zip *feels stupid*

- Zero Tolerance

Looks cool. I'll prob install this in the next few days.

Looks good, ive been wanting one of these for a while now :D

ZT Rulessss

running to install it right away

Clicked install :)

Awesome man work man.

you must have alot of free time :lol:

Not really, only took me about half a day to make, i just spread it over a few days :)

- Zero Tolerance

Competition's great :D looks great, can't wait to see if it develops further. :)

Hehehe ZT your a "Master Coder" Good job I was using your survey hack like a quiz before but this seems much better :p

Brilliant :) Been waiting for a quiz mod for quite a long time. Good work!

The Wolverine :D

I keep getting this message when I try to take part in a quiz:

Any ideas why? Yes i have set the allow user groups in the quiz cp

/me drools

This looks really good...thanks a lot!!

will there be an option for users to submit their own quizzes in future releases??

Suggestion: Option to create new thread in a particular forum with the results :)

*Adds 2 suggestions to v2 feature list* :)

- Zero Tolerance

another sugg: if we have shop, give points for perfect scores... (a simple query though!)

yet again...ZT comes up with the goods.

with the greatest of respect for the other coders on here, your hacks are the most stable, easy to install, and functional on here m8....seriously.

Yeah i was planning on adding this option to v2, along with compatability for uShop/RPG Inferno.

Thanks, that means a lot to me, nice to know that my effort is not a waste of time :)

- Zero Tolerance

Damn Zero Tolerance. You saved me a whole load of time with this :) I need a similar system for a clan approval question form :)

All I need to change is to have it change the usergroups at the end of the quiz and to have the questions in a random order :)

Zero Tolerance :pwnz: (that should really be a smilie :))

Super cool hack dude :)
Fantastic work ^_^

Are you useing Firefox? I got the same error with Firefox, I tryed IE and it worked fine, I reckon its cause the way Firefox handels javascript ?

Suggestion: Option to have x usergroup OR "SuperMod" to EDIT / Add A New Quiz & Question from the MODCP page or maybe a new page within your forums!

I have that problem too...I set all the permissions but if I go back to edit again it reverts back to no permissions

thanks, that worked for me

screen shots look fantastic

good work gonna try and install this..................................now

Nice hack. Installed :)

ZT, I'm excited about this hack!! I'm just curious when you think v2 will be done??

I'd love the add it, but I think the ucash part is what I'm gonna wait for.. :D

This hack has a bright future!! Just curious.. Before I install. If v2 is going to be released in a week or two, I'll wait.. :D

Good job! I like you hacks!

that would be great I would like to allow all registered user groups to post quizzes and for all registered user groups to take part and view stats.

Could there be a option to email the quiz results rather than pm them?

Cool a free version of a quiz system for vbulletin, you rock Zero Tolerance!!

Thank you.. will definetly install it at my site..

I test it on my local Server.
Great Hack! :)

But there is a way to cheat (Timelimit).
If you Start a Quiz, you can copy and past the text, gi back with the "Back" button from your Browser. Then you can start the quiz again.

Thanks, a really great hack. I've installed it and the minor problem of having to go too and from FireFox and IE to set permissions could be looked at but i'm sure people can put up with this small problem for now.

Great hack, Keep up the good work.

Suggestion: Can you implement a scheduled task feature (cron job). Where admins would preload the questions ahead of time for a designated schedule, and it automatically starts a quiz thread. Like the Thread of the Week hack.

ive got a few probs ... can you help me please :) in admincp/index.php mine shows like this:

// *************************************************

$printhr = false;
if (can_administer('canadminsettings'))
{
$printhr = true;
construct_nav_option($vbphrase['vbulletin_options'], 'options.php?null=0', '<br />');
if ($debug == 1)
{
construct_nav_option($vbphrase['admin_help_manager'], 'help.php?do=manage&script=NOSCRIPT');
}
construct_nav_group($vbphrase['vbulletin_options'], '<hr />');
}
if ($printhr == true)
{
construct_nav_spacer();
}

// ###### ELITECODERS DOWNLOAD HACK ######
construct_nav_option("Settings", 'downloadadmin.php?do=settings', '<br />');
construct_nav_option("Categories", 'downloadadmin.php?do=category', '<br />');
construct_nav_group("Downloads", '<hr />');
// ###### ELITECODERS DOWNLOAD HACK ######

// *************************************************

can you tell me where to put :

$printhr = true ;
construct_nav_option("Control Inferno Quiz's", 'admin_quiz.php', '<br />');
construct_nav_option("Control Quiz Questions", 'admin_quiz.php?do=questions', '<br />');
construct_nav_group("Inferno Quiz Control", '<hr />');
$printhr = false;

Also in my navbar i don't have what you have stated mine is like this:

<!-- / breadcrumb, login, pm info -->










<!-- bottom table setup -->
<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td width="60" align="left" valign="top"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/tren_z_front_btm_table_ls.gif" width="60" height="14" alt=" " border="0" /></td>
<td width="100%" style="background-image:url($stylevar[imgdir_misc]/tren_z_front_btm_table_back.gif)"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/clear.gif" width="100%" height="14" alt=" " border="0" /></td>
<td width="60" align="right" valign="top"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/tren_z_front_btm_table_rs.gif" width="60" height="14" alt=" " border="0" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- End bottom table setup -->
<div style="padding: 7px 7px 7px 7px;"></div>

<if condition="$show['popups']">
<!-- NAVBAR POPUP MENUS -->

where do i put :

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="quiz.php?$session[sessionurl]">Quiz</a></td>

Thanks in advance :) "Blonde" :o

i get that as well

Thats for admincp/index.php, as for the template, it seems you are using a skin with a custom header, you will have to ask the author of the skin how to add more navigation buttons i'm afraid.

Not sure when i'll get v2 out, but i'll be releasing v1.1 soon which fixes a couple of bugs, such as the FireFox incompatability for permissions control :)

- Zero Tolerance

Thankyou :)

v1.1 Has been released, the following updates were provided:

FireFox compatability for usergroup permissions in add/edit quiz
Score % rounded to full number (ie: 13.3333% becomes 13%)
Shows user in quiz on users online page

To upgrade, re-download Inferno Quiz, and follow the upgrade instructions :)

- Zero Tolerance

Nice work ZT.

Are you planning to have a general quiz area where all quizzes can be viewed / taken along with a leaderboard stats?

Hi, I have installed this on our test system with a view to going live.

I have a few points & suggestions (some of which you may have covered already).

1. Add the ability for users to add quizes.

2. In the admin area, make the selecting of usergroups via tick boxes.

3. Add the ability in ACP to edit (moderate) peoples answers and re-submit.

4. Add the ability in ACP to delete a persons quiz submission.

5. Check if a person has previously submitted a quiz at the point of submission (I can backspace and re-submit a quiz as often as I want).

6. For timed quizes, check if a user has javascript enabled and prevent them taking part if not (otherwise they can bypass the timer simply by disabling JS).

7. For text answers, make the check more "fuzzy". For instance if the correct answer is "red" then if I enter "it's red" I will be marked as wrong, when in fact I'm correct.

Thanks.
