SMF Quiz

[Peyj]

Wouldn't it be cool if admins and mods could create quizzes for the users to try themselves? With highscores and maybe the winning user would get +karma or something? Sinan talked about developing one in http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=239761.0 , but I cant find anything more on that subject so I re-propose this mod, kay?

[d58e7]

Yeah that would be a nice mod to have, especially if it's a forum for a fansite.

[Nathaniel]

That would be very nice, I'm looking at making some quizzes for my SMF website, so I will have a look into this Mod. Maybe we could start brainstorming what the mod would need?

At the moment there is the list of stuff from [SiNaN] that it very useful:
- Quiz categories
- Unlimited number of quizes
- A panel to control quizes, add questions, choices etc.
- A stat panel showing users' success.

[d58e7]

Maybe a stat bar under karma for defining the user's quizing ability

[Charles Hill]

Should include a class of quiz:  Questionnaire.  The purpose of which would be to gather information not test users' mental agility.

[Marcus Forsberg]

Maybe support for SMFShop so that the winner gets XX credits for the Shop?

[d58e7]

Yeah if it integrated with SMFShop it could be really useful as people would be more likely to use it

[d58e7]

Well in theory couldn't it use the same system that makes polls but rather than make one poll create multiple polls with distinct correct options possibly by having a checkbox next to the poll option? Then on the final entry section it could have what the reward is with a dropdown box and a value box.

I have no idea how to code something like that, but that's how I see something like this being implemented.

I have been looking for a Mod of this style for a while, SMF uses a database to run, but I have 4 free databases available from my ISP, i would like to see a mod that can utilise one of them to run a Quiz addon mod, keep track of my members scores and hold the questions... I am not a programmer and therefore have no idea where to start..... But yes, I think this would be a most popular mod to have...

[Nathaniel]

This is a mod which I will definitely look at making, but not for ages. I might end up making it only for SMF 2 RC1 or something, it depends.

[Perochak]

yes, it will be helpful for me I will use to create my VU quiz system.

[Sun11]

This is really a kool idea for a family community or something, maybe a contest with most right answers..., really good idea

[Nathaniel]

I think that [Sinan] is having a think about it, I might wait until he has decided if he's going to do it or not. I am not that enthusiastic about it. But I do need to do a similar thing for my website.

[Perochak]

Could it be like WPQuiz http://www.wireplastik.com

[Angelotus]

I would like such a mod to for my website!

[dwd2000]

I would use it too.

[geo32101]

Anyone know if this was created?

[dwd2000]

Anyone know if this was created?

Not created yet.

[[SiNaN]]

We can code it with LHVWB when we will have some free time probably. It would be a good feature for my site too.

[quiz_modder]

I am going to look into this one, please submit any suggestions here
