Thank you for that nice plugin, great job. It is really easy to learn and running smoothly! I have got a question concerning the logic of the question and answers. As far as I can see, it is not possible to insert a photo into the correct answer, is it? Say, I would have a multiple choice text question with 4 possible answers (and no photos at all). If the user clicks the right one I would love to say something like “Great”, together with a nice picture of the answer item – nearly as you have already inserted it for the wrong answerI Is there any possibility to insert that into further updates?

Thanks for your answer in advance.

Hello Haze,thank you for using HD Quiz!That’s a pretty interesting and unique use case there; I like it!

Currently, there is now way to show a per-question result when the user gets the question correct. I only added in if they get it wrong because I figured if they got the right answer, then they shouldn’t need an explanation.

To be honest, I’m not sure if this is something I’ll add into a future update as it would add a whole new level of complexity to the result checking, and I’m not sure if it’s a feature enough people would use to make it worth while (if anyone is reading this and would like this feature, please let me know!). I’ll have to think about the best way of adding it in, so don’t count it out yet.

As for adding an image to that section? Great idea! I’ll add it into the next release.

Hi Dylan,

thank your for your superquick and kind reply! Actually i have already guessed that this would be a lot of work for you – but was hoping for lots of fans to having you asked the same before and you considering to implement this … 😉

Sorry for my not understanding but I don’t really get your idea of what you mean by “image to that section”? Where would that image appear?

Just to explain what I had in mind with my question: Given that questions with images are always nicer than ones without … If I have a text question (“Which animal is the biggest?”) with text answers (Elephant, Mouse, Dog, Whale), I wouldn’t take one of those answers as the one and only picture for the post because whichever of the four possible I would take – it would influence the user’s answer. If I choose the “Image Answers” option instead I need at least four images which I have to find, to edit, to name with source etc. and to load up. Having an image together with the right answer seems to be a nice compromise to me: I only have to have one image and the user will get a nice “gratification” for his efforts.

May I ask you another question? To completely localize your quiz for other languages it would be very useful to have the possibility to translate the score response “You Scored … or …%”, too. That may be a wish of almost everbody who uses HD quiz outside the English-speaking market.:-)

Sorry for my long reply, dear Dylan, and best wishesHase

Hello Hase,

thank you for your in-depth response. You bring up a great point about the “You scored…” section. I will add it to the HD Quiz options page next update.

For the “image to that section”, I am referring to the individual questions page – the Question pass text and fail text. This option is utilizing the WordPress visual editor tinyMCE. It’s possible for me to add in an ‘add media’ button that will allow you to upload an image and ‘insert into post’, just like you would for a normal WordPress page.

Hi again, Dylan,ah, okay. That function has already come to me with my theme, obviously. I had no difficulties to insert an image for each question right from the beginning. 🙂

Hi Haze,just to be clear, I am talking about the individual questions page (my previous reply was not very well made. edited for clarity). Your theme would have absolutely no control over this section unless it is overriding all tinyMCE instances – which would be a very very bad thing for your theme to hijack!

I am talking about adding the ability to upload an image and insert it into the text area, just like you can do with any normal WordPress page. Please see attached screenshot to see the section I am referring too. So, not the featured image that appears before each question, but an image that can be inserted into the “Text that appears if answer was wrong” section.

Hope this makes sense!

Dear Dylan,Thank you for replying again and get this clear. Yes, I had already found that section and tried to insert an image – that was running perfectly. It’s very nice and very near to the opportunity I would love to have for the text that appears if the answer was right. 😉
