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).
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!

Just to let you all know, I've fiddled with the old code a bit and so far things are going well. I've got a few new ideas that I'll be exploring. All in all it could be a few more weeks, at least, until I've got some kind of beta version out, but I'll keep at it and update you all before long.
I am still offering you the money i mentioned earlier in this thread. Our site is called http://www.99mac.se/ and were dedicated to Mac (in Swedish...).
We use vb quiz for testing our members in Macintosh knowledge (how many USB-ports does the original imac have - what is the name of Steve Jobs' wife)
Simply put, I've got a mostly-working vB3-compatible version up and running, admin integration included, with all the same features as the 2.x version, as well as a few more.
I'm going to be putting a fair amount of time into it over the next few days, and the coming weekend. I'll be surprised if I don't have a working, tested vB Quiz for vB3 completed within a few weeks, at most.

Yes. After a brief break to attend to some other things, I've begun working on this again in the last couple of days. Most of the work has revolved around creating the new quiz templates, which are mostly finished, but still need some work. The basic core of the script is done, and has been for a couple of weeks; you can create quizzes, users can take them, and see their results. Most of rhe work left falls under the following headings:
Fine-tuning (and reworking parts of) the admin script
Modifying and eventually finalizing the default quiz templates
Making the final decision as to which features to include with the original, standard release of the hack
Two things that have not yet begun are the integration into the phrase system (shouldn't take long), and the installation script.
My plan is to sell this initially, given the fact that it has required a larger amount of work than most hacks, and a great deal of original coding. It is possible that, sometime down the line, a scaled-down free version will be released.
I'll be working on it more this week, and weekend, and likely contacting those interested in purchasing it sometime next week. Meanwhile, if anyone else is interested, please post in this thread, or PM me, and I'll update you personally when the script is ready for use.
