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.

What is also needed is an admin facility to correct peoples answers and marks, so if you can see they were right, but a spelling error caused it to be marked wrong, an admin can manually mark it as correct.

Zero Tolerance puts out yet another great hack. Deepest respect man. I think I've installed virtually everyone of your hacks on my board. This one took me I think 3 minutes to install. VBulletin should be hiring you.

Polo · #55 05-05-2005, 12:48 PM

I dont know if this has been suggested, but the ability for users to submit quizes and then get approved by the administrator I think would be great

Thanks, and I seriously doubt vBulletin would hire me, 2 main reasons really:
1) I'm 17 years old
2) I have no official grades to do with anything computer related

And thanks for the ideas people, i'll see what i can do - probably start on v2 in a few days, just need to finish work off for a client first.

wow, you got some talent

another feature for you

ability to add some kind of "long/short essay answers", so that some "grader" can read and give point for the writing, adding to the automatic ones (same as summiting answers, then admin can fix the score)

I need this one to "test" taking quiz and remove myself, so I can "take" the quiz again, so I add a quick add-on to the file, so that you can view who's taking a quiz, and be able to "view" their status or delete him from quiz (so he can re-take it. (see attachment, you just need to replace the admin_quiz.php in admincp (make backup of the file if you use it)

Zero, feel free to add to your hack, if you think it's good.

more suggestion. adding "submission date" to the result would be nice, so that you know when someone submit answers.

Lionel · #59 05-06-2005, 03:16 PM

Can it be only one question per page, then go to next page? Long quizzes produce long pages.

Paul M · #60 05-06-2005, 03:19 PM

@ mtha - Thanks - I shall test this later.

mtha · #61 05-07-2005, 07:21 AM

suggestion:

- adding Quiz/test description would be nice. the description will be displayed when start taking the test, and on top of the questions.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
