After successful completion of the quiz, you can track from your dashboard your visitors’ results, duration, when they start, and when they end the quiz.
We have created a beautiful form and you can choose fields of the form from the dashboard and assign this form to your quiz ( After or Before quiz ) and when the user finishes the quiz you can collect data and have beautiful statistics on your dashboard. This data allows you to create your email and SMS marketing, which will attract much more users from your specific target.
There are 3 static form fields in the free version` name, email and phone. For more custom fields you need to upgrade to the Quiz PRO version.
Also, results’ statistics with graphs and export functionality are available only in the Pro version.

If you have an e-commerce website, you can give personalized offers to your clients by creating personality tests and letting them pass. You can offer different products based on the choices your users made during the quiz. Earn more income and make your users stay on your websites longer. Check out How to Create a Personality Test in WordPress article for more detailed information.
You can create quizzes such as Truity enneagram test, 16 Personality Test, Big 5 Personality Traits Test, and many more popular tests.

Survey

Using our plugin you can make a Survey too. We have made text and number question types and also No influence to the score option.
It means that questions will not be counted for the final result. It stands as a survey plugin too. Also, you can make quiz and survey mixes. You can enable the Hide score option from the quiz settings and you will just collect the data which users filled in the survey.
By the way, we have also created a separate WordPress Survey plugin.

Quick Quiz

You can create a quick quiz from the dashboard without visiting the questions page or quiz page. Just click on a quick quiz button and you’ll see a modal window with an opportunity to add questions and save the quiz, but note that it is only for adding a new quiz. For editing quiz you should do the steps as usually you edit quizzes or questions.

Quiz themes, styles and live preview

There are 6 themes available for making awesome quizzes.
You can choose one of them and then customize it with our 50+ style options (colors, backgrounds, borders). Also, there is a live preview feature in the style section in the dashboard, which allows the admin to see every change of options. There is no need to save and go to the front end to see changes in styles. Have fun!

Quiz user restriction

You can restrict your users by enabling and selecting user roles from the dashboard and only selected users with given roles can pass your quiz. If you don’t want to restrict your quiz by role, we have created another opportunity for you, just enable “Only for logged in users” option and write some message to non-logged-in users, in this way you can enlarge your community. If your quiz is interesting non-registered users will register on your website for passing the quiz and you will have ultra traffic on your website. Please note that by selecting restriction by user roles, the quiz will automatically select only for logged-in users option.

Creating a quiz with Quiz Maker is so easy that, you can have a full quiz or an exam test in just a minute or so:
– First, create a Question Category to specify the type of questions that you’ll make. (Instructions above)
– Then, create as many questions as you want for the quiz or exam test from the Questions section, choose that newly made category, add an image (optional) and save your questions. (For more info, check instructions above)
– Now, create a Quiz Category to specify the type of the quiz that you’ll make. (Instructions above)

How many types of questions are there?

There are 7 types of questions available to use:

  • Radio
  • Checkbox
  • Dropdown
  • Text
  • Short text
  • Number
  • Date

It is essential to mention that you can add media to your fully customizable questions no matter the type you chose. Check out demo of Quiz With Different Question Types. It combines all types of questions this WordPress quiz plugin offers.

Is there any limit on the count of questions or quizzes?

Nope, there is not. No matter you are a free or premium user, this wp quiz plugin gives you a unique opportunity to create unlimited quizzes with unlimited questions. Moreover, there is not any limit on the count of quiz takers taking the quiz at the same time. All you need to grab the chance and give it a try!

Anyway, it is relevant to mention that there are cases when the hosting provider can set some limits via PHP parameters. For instance, if you wish to include more than 1000 questions in your quiz, increase the max_input_vars parameter which is set as 1000 in most cases. Another parameter is the max_execution_time, which also needs to be much higher while dealing with huge amounts of questions and quizzes. Once again, please note that the plugin itself does not have any limits. So, when you face an issue related to limitations, please contact your hosting provider in the first place.

Can I translate this plugin?

Of course, you can! This WordPress questionnaire plugin is fully translatable. You can make use of the Loco Translate WordPress plugin which is trusted by hundreds of our clients. Furthermore, you can take a look at the following useful article for further information.
