vBQuiz 1.0

NOTE: all functionality-impairing bugs have been fixed. The attached files should work well on just about any PHP installation.

What's it do?
It allows you to setup a quiz center on your boards quickly and easily. This quiz center is FULLY templated, integrated with vBulletin, and has an advanced Admin script for managing the quizzes, categories, and questions. Here's an example: Movie Forums - Quizzes

A few of its features...

Tracks all results and displays high scores.
Upon completion, users are given a total quiz breakdown of the quiz, showing them how they fared on each question, and, on the ones they missed, showing them the correct answer.
Upon completion, users are shown a graphical bar representing their score, and a graphical bar representing the average score for the quiz. They are also emailed their information.
Main quiz page calculates and displays the easiest and most difficult quizzes automatically.
Quizzes can be split up into categories.
Quizzes can be approved or disapproved easily to add/remove them from public view/use.
Full integration with the Who's Online? page...IE: "Viewing Quizzes" or "Viewing So and So Quiz" and even "Taking So and So Quiz"

Admin Abilities:

Disallow multiple quiz takings.
Toggle to disinclude quiz results coming from the author of the quiz.
Change the display order of the answers to each question.
Add multiple questions and answers at once (no limit).

Here are some screenshots:

That's it! Don't forget, however, to read ALL of the instructions.txt file in the enclosed vbquiz.zip file. It'll help guard against some common bugs.

Files Enclosed (in vbquiz.zip)
- instructions.txt (read it!)
- quiz.php (upload to main forum dir)
- admin_quiz.php (upload to admin dir)
- install_quiz.php (upload to admin dir and then run)

Enjoy!

Also: a HUGE, HUGE, HUGE thanks to GamerForums for beta testing this hack for me. His help was completely invaluable and surely saved me a lot of work in the long run. Thanks!

Hi

I got the quiz working on my board but after I ran the install file 3 times. This was due to not using the default template set. Anyways, got it workin but there are now 3 entries at the top of the admin cp for [quiz options] along with 3 sets of options to go along with those links. How can I get rid of them?

Thanks!

Question: When I added a new Quiz, I neglected to put in an image. Is there any way I can go back and add an image to an already-made quiz - there doesn't seem to be any option in the 'Edit Quiz' page?

Fantastic Hack, BTW.

Lol, you need those in order to manage your quizzes (unless you want to do that directly, which I don't think anybody would want). If you still want to get rid of it, open admin/index.php and REMOVE:

Code:

makenavoption("Add","admin_quiz.php?action=addquiz","|");
makenavoption("Modify","admin_quiz.php?action=modifyquiz","|");
makenavoption("Delete","admin_quiz.php?action=deletequiz","<br/>");
makenavoption("Approve","admin_quiz.php?action=approve","|");
makenavoption("Disapprove","admin_quiz.php?action=disapprove","<br/>");
makenavselect("Quizzes");

makenavoption("Add","admin_quiz.php?action=addquestions","|");
makenavoption("Modify","admin_quiz.php?action=modifyquestion","|");
makenavoption("Delete","admin_quiz.php?action=deletequestion");
makenavselect("Quiz Questions");

makenavoption("Add","admin_quiz.php?action=addcat","|");
makenavoption("Modify","admin_quiz.php?action=modifycat","|");
makenavoption("Delete","admin_quiz.php?action=deletecat");
makenavselect("Quiz Categories", "<br/>");

Quizzes -> Modify Quizzes -> Select the quiz -> In quiz description, add an html tag:

Code:

<img src="http://www.yourdomain.com/forum/images/pic.gif">

Odil · #**537** 09-01-2002, 11:04 AM

No you have missunderstood me. See attached pic. I have 4 of these at the top when I only need one.

Martin64 · #**538** 09-01-2002, 11:39 AM

Ah, I see. My bad, I didn't read it carefully enough

To get rid of it, fire up phpmyadmin and remove the extra entries in "settinggroup".

Sorry, the image doesn't come out as an image - it just displays the code.

Martin64 · #**540** 09-01-2002, 12:03 PM

That's funny, because I'm using it myself.

And I've definitely got the image installed where the code points to.
