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!

Oh, I was referring to the ones listed in this thread. Most of them are pretty straightforward. Some I deliberately decided not to include, but others might have some use for them. Just wanted to thank him for his time and effort.
1) is it me or, no matter how many seconds u put as per limit, if you don't answer due to time limit, quiz thinks you answered right?!?!
2) do you people get this "Could not find phrase 'quiz_already_taken'" when trying to redo a quiz already completed?
3) we're only 89 registered members. I don't know the 89, may be just 5 or 6 people, but i have my quiz set up so you can only do quizzes once. Now, a quiz reports it has been completed...105 times!!!
Even if the switch would not be working correctly, it would also mean ALL of the users did the quiz or most of them did it twice!!

Ne1 else suffering from this?
I PMd you about this some time ago. I don't think I've heard back yet:
sabre: I have a patch for that. It has afflicted a few users. I'll have it right out to you.
RE: 1) haven't tried yet
RE: 2) I guess it's just not me...
RE: 3) Initially i had the option "allow redo the quiz" to yes but quickly turned it off... Now counts are more "normal"... will let u know if problem ever reappears
RE sabre problem, I do think I suffered from that problem too... what's the patch about?
Some members start the quizzes at the second or fourth question even if they have never done it before. Also some images dont show and its very slow. Any answers? Please PM.

Hi bjorn. Could you email me a list of problems to me? The speed is probably nothing that can be fixed; it runs fine for me on several different servers, so I'd have to imagine it's a host issue.
As for the second or fourth question...there's probably a problem with the displayorder. I'll fire a PM off to you with my email address so I can help you get to the bottom of it.
