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's possible to make a add-on that will do the compilation all the results of a user ? Will it be easy ?

Exemple, a user make 3 quiz and the script can give the overall result for that 3 quiz, by doing this we will be able to see the "best" user...

The quiz will be updated for vBulletin v3.0 ?

Greetings,

After reading through 33 pages of this and visiting some of the sites, I have to say GREAT HACK, but even better support.

I am wondering though: I saw two questions from users who wanted to insert images as part of the questions. One tried and couldn't (post 392-394) and another (post422) that asked the same question but no reply as yet.

Is embedding images (and having them show) in the Quiz question or answer possible, and has anyone done it successfully?

Regards,

Matt

Yes, you can use images. Just use regular HTML in the quiz question. Example:

Code:

<img src="http://www.yoursite.com/images/quizzes/image.jpg">

This is an amazing hack. Many, many thanks for creating such an inventive and fun add-on for our community!

I agree that it'd be great if scores could be totalled in percentages, rather than points alone. It makes the hardest/easiest quiz section a little quirky. But that's not a huge deal. All in all, I can't wait to bring this live on my forums!

Thanks again!

Just wanted to say...a little late...that I love this hack. It didn't work too well in the beginning for us, but it turned out awesome...and I just wanted to say thanks! You're an awesome hacker!

Cool hack!

One problem though, installed sweet but only thing that dont work correctly is adding questions, I add a question it seems to go though but when I try to view them its not there also when viewing the questions on quiz.php it does not appears there also. I went and looked at the database table its not there, its like I never added it to the game.

I reinstalled it three times, still same thing. All templates installed, and tables installed. Followed directions 100%

Any thoughts?

You have to make a quiz. The questions section is for editing quiz questions. Without a quiz there is nowhere for the questions to go.

Is there a way to add this hack to your homepage instead of the forums?

I'm using vbulletin 2.2.6 and a portal from phpPortals and would love to install this hack on my homepage.

(I'm trying to attract more visitors to my homepage instead of the board itself).

Yes, I know and that?s the weird part because I've made the quiz and even approved it, I did many different combinations. The quiz questions never added no matter what I try.

Thanks! Anyone got ideas?

I belive there is an addon for this hack located here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=42000

Not sure if thats what you wanted, but seems to be.
