And once, I've taken it, I can click the comment link at the bottom of the results page. It will save me a ton of time

Yay! I got 100%. It was hard to not choose the answer I WANTED though.

Re How to Create a Quiz with a Thread

I have it set up so that the thread doesn't show until you finish posting the quiz and it's been approved.

You can't just reserve a thread and close out the form for this to work, which is something I need to think through. For now, you have to create the quiz and submit it or you'll end up with an empty shell.

What can I say, I was working on this till 3 am. It needs a bit of refining

Re How to Create a Quiz with a Thread

P.S. Your thread will now show once you mark the quiz as tested.

Re How to Create a Quiz with a Thread

OK. After a bit of cleanup work this afternoon, the "holder" thread is no longer created. The thread is created instead when you mark the quiz as tested.

Also, there is a rough, but functional edit page that works for your quizzes now. When you submit one and test it, you can edit any goofy little errors that you might find and then retest. Once the quiz is error-free, you can mark it tested.

YOU CAN NOT EDIT YOUR QUIZZES AFTER YOU MARK THEM TESTED.

So, make sure you test the heck out of em before you mark them ready for the public.

Planned Features: A space to allow you to comment on your quiz for the dynamically created thread.

A more refined edit page that includes the ability to add more questions.

A different interface for creating new quizzes. I hate the javascript thing that makes you click to add each question.

Amy
