suggestion: make it integrate with user_points from either the cashmod or the points mod, so that boards that have these points systems can award points based on the scores members get on the quizes.

[battye]

If you look at the previous version, it was also integrated with the Cash MOD
This version will be too.

[songdove]

Sorry, yeah, you're right, I didn't realize these were the same mod.

[Unstable Fears]

Can't wait to see what it looks like when it is released

Latest Version: 1.1.0 Alpha

[Bullmax]

Nice work on the new version! Seems to be working just fine so far.

Have a request on the detailed answers.
I see it tells you what your answer was and the correct answers.

Example of my quiz:
Q) I should not drink any alcoholic beverages while I am pregnant.
A) Your answer was True, the correct answer was True

Is there a way to insert a reason when making the quiz that would explain why the answer was true.

Example:
Q) I should not drink any alcoholic beverages while I am pregnant.
A) Your answer was True, the correct answer was True ...
Drinking alcohloic beverages while pregnant can cause low birth weight and birth defects.

Not sure if this would be possible.

Nice job!

[battye]

Yeah, that would be possible. However, there would need to be certain limitations, such as the detailed answer being a maximum of 255 characters. I'll add it to my list of features I need to add, as I do think it's a good idea

[chattalk]

Is it possible to mix the type of questions. Like have multiple choice and tru and false and detailed answer all in the same quiz.

Also, is there a demo or snapshots of the new version?

1: No
2: I'll put some screenshots up later today

[chattalk]

do you think in the next stable version you could implement multiple question types into it.

Like you can have at the beggining when someone adds a quiz.. a choice like there is now of tru/false, detailed answers, or multiple choice.. but there should be another option that says mixed types. And then if you choose mixed, then before you write each question, it should ask you what type of question you want this question to be.

Probably not, it's a good idea, and maybe something worth considering in the future, but not for 1.1.x

[robindr]

I have the quiz mod already installed. However I dont know what version it is? How can I see what version I'm having?

I won't be able to update it untill 1.1.1 is ready for download, when do you estimate this release to be finished?

oh btw: some screenshots would be nice
btw2: when upgrading, will the existing quizzes be removed?

[battye]

I have made a basic updater already, and got it to work, however there are still problems with it which need to be resolved, that is why it was not included with 1.1.0

Existing quizzes will be retained.

Sorry about the screenshots, they'll be posted tomorrow. Promise

Thanks
