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!

Everyone thinks it will work just like that lol

As stated previously, you must go to Admin CP >> Vbulletin Options >> Quizzes >> Save Changes

to get rid of the error

Installed this great hack. But have one problem that I don't really see answered in the threads. The problem is regarding the image that goes with the quizzes.

I created a directory named quizzes in my /images directory, i.e. /images/quizzes. But when submitting a new quiz with an image, it accepts it no problems, but doesn't show. I've seen other mention this here but with no answers. Its defniitely not permissions on my server as it has full access. It certainly hasn't uploaded it to the relvevant directory.

I even wondered if it might be due to restrictions on the forum main options regarding image width, size and type, but it isn't that either.

I also looked at the source on the quiz page for that quiz and I didn't see any reference to the graphic.

Any ideas ?

P.S. Do you have a release date for v2 ?

I just installed on 2.2.9 with no problems whatsoever

Great hack!

Here's how you do it!

In quiz.php, find (around line 650):

PHP Code:


			
 $date    = vbdate($dateformat, time());

    $line    = str_repeat('-', 40);

    $message = result_switch($totalcorrect, $question_count);

Add AFTER:

PHP Code:


			
    $addpoints = $totalcorrect*10;

    $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET storep=storep+$addpoints WHERE userid='$userinfo[userid]'");

You can change the 10 to however many points you want...

In the email_quizresults template you can add:

Code:

You earned $addpoints points!

That's it!

My problem that i have a german Board. All Templates are only in my default style and not in my german Sie style.

Is there a possibility to move fast the quiz templates in my german style ?

pcoskat · #**668** 02-03-2003, 10:35 PM

What a lovely hack!!!

Question: when uploading an image to the quiz, is it possible to add a hyperlink to the image? (ie: I'd like to base my quizes on specific books, and have the image be 'of' the book, with that image linked to amazon.com - possible?)

TWTCommish,

I wrote a hack allowing an admin to add a longer answer or explanation to a question. The explanation is then shown on the results page. The zip file containes the altered quiz.php and admin_quiz.php files and new contents for the quiz_resultbit template.

Before I post this to the hacks section, I wanted to make sure it hasn't been done already -- and wanted to know what you think about it.

Here are some screenshots:

Add A Question
Edit A Question

If I'm not repeating someone else's work and everything looks good, let me know. Thanks!

Molok · #**670** 02-04-2003, 06:07 AM

Is it possible that Registred User can send a quiz and the admin can only approve the quiz ?

ethics · #**671** 02-04-2003, 10:47 AM

ChurchMedia is on fire!

Thank you, I've had (politics forum) plenty of quizzes where I wished I could explain after the answer was given.
