Hi Dylan,

Have you planned to develop CSV or JSON import for personality tests?

Hi Pannacotta,
I would love to be able to create a CSV import tool for personality questions, but the problem is how?

Like, seriously, how could you format a CSV file to contain the needed data for an entire personality quiz? This is the question I’ve been struggling to solve as unlike standard quizzes where only a single answer is “correct”, with personality questions, each answer needs to have a coresponding value for each possible outcome! Every way I can think of to format a CSV for this would be too complex for the everyday user, and would also probably be so time consuming to create that it would be easier and faster to just create the questions manually using HD Quiz.

TLDR; I would love to add this feature, but it is far easier to say than to do. If you have any ideas on how you think a properly formatted CSV file would look for personality quizzes, I’m open to suggestions!

Yes, it’s probably not easy. I saw that some other quiz plugins have this CSV or JSON import option for personality tests.

I guess, you probably need to have one value in your CSV that increment the specific outcome (probably numerical values? 1 for first outcome, 2 for second one, etc…).

But you are the king of plugin, maybe one day… I’ll still have hope 😉

Thanks for your answer, very reactive as always!
