SMF Quiz
emanuele:
Most likely it won't change anything: I don't remember I touched anything related.
Unfortunately at the moment I have no idea of what could be the issue here...
Usually the quiz leagues are not correlated to the number of times a quiz has been played.
Did you try to create a new league?

I want to thank Emanuele for reviving this mod and releasing a version that works with SMF 2.0.2 - and for not breaking anything on my site where we tested his various revisions!!
I know he has great plans for the Quiz mod and I've given him a "shopping list" of changes and enhancements I'd like to see which includes the provision of BBC in question and answer texts.
From my members' perspective, there is only one weak area and that's Quiz League Results where only the current top scorer's results are displayed (as well as "your" position if you're participating). That's hardly a league table which should show all the participants, their results and movement since the last update - something like this:
--- Code: --- ------ Round 3 Results ------ --------- Cumulative Results -----------
Position Member's Name Right Wrong Time-Outs Time Right Wrong Time-Outs Time Movement
1 John Doe 10 5 0 94 25 6 0 185 up 1
=2 Jane Doe 9 6 0 95 24 7 0 186 no change
=2 Fred Smith 10 5 0 98 24 7 0 187 down 1
4 You 11 4 0 94 23 8 0 187 up 4
--- End code ---
There remains a major issue. All the images and JS scripts used in the Quizzes are stored in the default theme's images and scripts trees respectively. That's fine if the only theme available is the default theme but for sites that allow for more than one theme, this will be an issue. I suggest that all images be stored in "$boardurl . 'SMFQuiz/Images/'" and scripts in "$boardurl . SMFQuiz/Scripts/'" where they will be readily accessible regardless of theme.

Thanks a lot for developing this fine mod, emanuele! :D Please keep up the great work!!
Maybe in the future, you might consider making this compatible with SMF 1.1.16?

I have around a version that *should* work (more or less) with SMF 1.1.x (that is the one I'm using on my own forum...yeah, too many things to do to even upgrade my own forum lol). I did few changes (don't even remember what I changed) and I should clean it up a bit...
Anyway it would be a completely unsupported version, at the moment I'm moving even further away from SMF 1.1 in the development of this mod, so it would be a dead version unless someone else would provide active support for it.

It's not an issue at all and is done on purpose: all the images and scripts are accessed through the default theme urls, so even if you are using a different theme they are loaded properly. Nothing to change here.

I have just installed this on my heavily-modded test forum with no errors at all :D I did have to uninstall Fancy Box for the quiz to run (thanks for the heads-up), but, having just taken davejo's Cult Movies quiz, many of the questions are cutting off before the end. I don't know of course if this is to do with the mod or the quiz pack. I attach a screenshot:
