Hey all, heres a system i decided to make for a couple of reasons, mainly because i had some spare time and had nothing better to do, but also because it will benefit my forums and probably yours too.
So, what is Inferno Quiz?
Basically it's a quiz system, allowing administrators to add quiz's and questions, and for users to take part in them, in generic anyway, but the full feature list is provided below.

Now for the previews, what everyone likes to see..
As said in the features list, it will be included, i have however removed the spam protection as it would seem useless.
I'm currently working on making the global quiz permissions (who can submit quizzes) flat file, however it doesn't work too well when your host dies =P - But it will save a global query being executed.
- Zero Tolerance
if you make it into file, you migh have to give the write permission for some folder, or safe_mode off or something?
@ mtha - Yes, CHMOD permissions will need to be set for the folder and the file
@ lmongello - I don't have the code for the other vB3 Quiz Hack, so without the DB structed i cannot determine how to import the quizzes. However if you set me up with a test forum with the quiz installed, and give me the link and admin access (via PM) i'll take a look, andafter v2 has been released, i'll release an addon which imports quizzes from that system to this
I'm currently working on submit quiz, which will by JS powered, once done i'll create a flash preview of how it works.
I will just provide quizzes that my admins already made for my site, simple as that, then you guys can swap/trade yours to each other with the given functionality
Thanks for the reply. Not sure how I can set up a test forum, as i only have one VB license. If you can guide me a little, I'd appreciate it. Otherwise, would an export of the quiz tables help? Let me know exactly what you need. Thanks!!!!
@ axi - If you look at the features list for v2, on page 6, you will understand what i mean, there is a function to import/export quizzes, so people can share them. So i will just export mine and let people import them willingly.
@ lmongello - Correct, jelsofts policy says you must use 1 installation of vB per license, however it does also specify another installation may be made for "test" purposes, which is what you would be doing, as a definition of test purposes would be a forum with no activity of regular members posting, and such, so basically a dead forum.
