    Thank you very much for making this plugin.

    There are a few features which aren’t on the requested features p[age in the plugin menu that I would love to see implemented:

    1. The option to hide the answer box and leave only the comment text field.
    2. The option to use shortcodes in the questions.

  • Greetings symp:

    Thank you for choosing to use this plugin! I am sorry that I have not responded sooner.

    Is your quiz graded that you need only the comment field for? Could you use the text fields instead?

    Is there a particular shortcode you are wanting to use?

    Best Regards

    Thank you for responding.

    I have a dictation in my quiz. It’s quite long and I don’t want to require the users to manually resize the text input area. Your new large text input option is a step in the right direction. I have used css to style the comment form to achieve the result I wanted:

    border: 1px solid #c4c4c4;
        height: 600px !important;
        width: 550px !important;
        font-size: 13px;
        padding: 4px 4px 4px 4px;
        border-radius: 4px;
        -moz-border-radius: 4px;
        -webkit-border-radius: 4px;
        box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #d9d9d9;
        -moz-box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #d9d9d9;
        -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #d9d9d9;

    If the new large text answer had a separate class then it would allow me to style it similarly.

    Ok, after typing that answer it occurred to me that I could have simply used
    textarea.mlw_answer_open_text[name=questionX]
    to achieve the same result for each of those questions, so this is no longer important 🙂

    The shortcode would be a standard [audio] for the dictation. Right now I’m using <object> but this doesn’t take the theme style into account.

    On a side note: There’s a results export add-on on your store. Is there any way (paid/free) to export a quiz and import it on another website? I’m considering doing a fresh install of the whole wordpress and that would save me quite some time.

    Greetings symp:

    I will look into adding shortcode support in a future update for you.

    Unfortunately, I do not currently have any export/import functionality ready at this time.

    Best Regards

    Unfortunately using the css to make answer fields larger doesn’t help. Pressing enter in that field ends the test so it’s not possible to use it for a dictation.
    It’s probably because it’s not a <textarea> but <input>.

    In the end I decided to use an empty single choice answer but being able to specify no answer at all would still help.

    I’ve looked through my sqls and noticed a FROMwp_mlw_questions section which contains the questions. Would it be enough to export that table and import it to the fresh wordpress instalation?
    Would there be a need to edit/add some additional sql entries and files?

    Greetings Again symp:

    If you have not installed Quiz Master Next on your new site, you can export the tables wp_mlw_questions, wp_mlw_quizzes, wp_mlw_results, and wp_mlw_qm_audit_trail. (The wp_ part may be different in your installation depending on how you have it set up). Then import them into your new site before installing Quiz Master Next. If you have already installed Quiz Master Next and have not created any quizzes in it, then you can delete those tables on the new site and replace them with the exported tables from the old site.

    If you already have quizzes on your new site, then there is not a way to easily combine the two sites at this time.

    Best Regards

    Frank

    Greetings Again symp:

    Try to leave all the answer fields blank for your questions. When saving the question, the plugin should delete all the answers and leave you with only the comment box.
