vBQuiz 1.0 · **Released**: 06-10-2002

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!

it is now perfectly working for me . There is nothing wrong. Amazing hack. Thanks so much. One requests though. Is there any way to have 4 multiple choice questions instead of just 2. That would be a reall help also. Thanks so much.

BigJohnson · #**164** 06-12-2002, 09:00 PM

O ya also there is some requests I have but i dont no if any one has enought ime for it now hehe. I was wondering if the templates could have my border color to it instead of having no border color. I dont no hown to get that done in the templates. Also when you are taking a quiz it tells you Question 4 if you are on question 4. Could it says like questions 4 out of 10 or something to tell the person how long this test is going to take?

Congrats on another great hack TWT, this will be a great addition to my board, thanks for sharing it with us.

One thing I did find was that if you have "Add template name in comments" set to yes then you get text like this in your email:

Code:

<!-- BEGIN TEMPLATE: email_quizresults -->

NTLDR, where did you find that "Add template name in comments"..... I wish to change that email too....

TWTCommish · #**167** 06-12-2002, 10:47 PM

banderson and BigJohnson: it's the email_quizresults template.

BigJohnson: you can have as many answers per question as you want. I'm not sure what gave you the impression you can only have two.

Boofo · #**168** 06-12-2002, 10:50 PM

How are you doing on the new quiz.php? Any luck yet?

This is a great addition to vB. I'll be installing it soon!

One suggestion, I took several of your quizes, and I'd like to now be able to see the questions and my answers again.

TWTCommish · #**170** 06-13-2002, 01:54 AM

I'm thinking, for version 2.0, that all quiz results, question-by-question, should be saved. It'd take up a lot of space for any significantly sized board, but it's do-able for the next version.

zootsuit · #**171** 06-13-2002, 02:30 AM

Damn...almost works!

We still get no questions and misplaced answers on some tests and misplaces questions (from other quizzes) on others...

I just played along and chose even tho the first question didn't have a question and it supplied answers from a different test, it seems to be running smoothly...it even supplied the question after I chose (the wrong one of course - but it's a start!) - no errors anymore!

I'm sure we're all waiting with bated breath...

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
