Registration Quiz To Determine Usergroup v1.0

Well its been a while since i've released a hack and i've decided to come back to vbulletin.org and share some work

regardless i don't remember the users that inspired me to create this hack but i know a couple of members were asking for a hack that could produce this kind of results

With this hack i try to bring an easy installation as it should take no longer then a few minutes... and with an interface that will make user creation and edits easy...

for instance in order to create a quiz outcome the usergroup must exist or it won't be a selecteable option... and no fields can be left empty, the only way around this is database alteration...
hopefully to create a more enjoyable hack for all...

## What This Hack Does For You
Allows For A User Quiz During Registration to Determine A User's Usergroup
( Warning: Do Not Use This Hack If You Wish To Validate Email Addresses or for Coppa User Purposes because it does override both registration features. )

## Features
Optimizable Register Quiz Admin Panel
- Create Questions & Answers with Point Values
- Create Outcomes To Determine Usergroup Based Upon the Total of Points Values

## Files to Upload (2)
upload regquizadmin.php to the admin directory
upload regquizinstall.php to the admin directory

## File Modification (3)
- register.php (2)
- admin/index.php (1)
- View Instructions Below For Further Details

## Template Modification (2)
- registeradult template (1)
- registercoppa template

## To Install
upload regquizinstall.php to the admin directory and run it in the browser
( ie: yourforumurl/admin/regquizinstall.php )
- Automatically runs queries and inserts templates

Now if you don't use either coppa or email validation then this hack can be a good experience to further customize which users can view what and... well the ideas are endless...

for example you can create groups that can view certain forums using access masks and customize a quiz to determine which group they will ultimately belong to upon registration...

well zip includes all files and screenshots i will also attach screenshots below for users that want to see previews before hand...

[Edit]This Has Been Tested & Installed On vbulletin 2.2.9 but i don't see why this hack shouldn't work for any vb 2.x version

Enjoy

This is a great hack. And it would be VERY useful to me. The only problem that is keeping me from using it is:

( Warning: Do Not Use This Hack If You Wish To Validate Email Addresses or for Coppa User Purposes because it does override both registration features. )

If you could find a work around i would use this 100%

Wooohoo this is great. I was trying something similar myself, but failed.
Great hack man! Thanks

In 2.3.0 and up, I'm pretty sure that a workaround for e-mail validation would be simple, not much harder in versions before. (I think.)

Nice hack, although I won't use it as I am on vB3 and I don't feel like converting it.

[Dakkon]

as much as I guess.. g-force2k2, check my PM that I sent you yesterday or so.

As usual, excellent and useful hack. Glad that you come back!

[Zachery]

ive been asking this abit, any chance youll convert it for vb3?

[obiwan8472]

An idea, is it possible to put the quiz on a seperate page instead of at teh bottom of the registration page? Also is it possible to make optional? I got one member who refuses to take no part in quizs.

And for existing members to do the quiz too?
thanx!

[snyx]

the real questions now are, how can you quiz to determine good users from troll users (as we call them on our site) from the registration.. interesting

[alkatraz]

what a great idea!!!

im not sure how i'd incorporate it... i'll have to do some thinking

maybe I could use it as a way tagging members as beginners and advanced

[obiwan8472]

just wondering how this is goin? any way to get it workin with validatin emails?
