Sweet! With Chris's new advanced menu plugin, you could use this for iOS and have the standard quiz for Android.

@NadTheVlad. Nicely done :-) Just a couple questions: - does this version of the Quiz plugin allow scores out of 100? e.g. Get a score out of 100%. I had to remove the extra bonus points code to get that in the existing Quiz plugin. Maybe this should be an option in the control panel, i.e. to turn off bonus points. - I watched the YouTube video, and noticed that at 00:23 seconds, the results show: 1 Correct Answer, 1 Incorrect Answer, 2 Total Score. Is this correct? At 00:55 results in the video seem to just count up the correct answers, i.e. 1 point per correct answer. Can we assume the first results gave 2 points per correct answer and this isn't a bug? LOL Cheer Steve

That is some attention to detail @BuzzingSteve. 1. Are you referring to the free quiz bonus points for getting consecutive answers correct. As far as the NAD advanced quiz goes, I took out the bonus points. They just don't exist anymore in my plugin. 2. Good eye. There is an option in the Control Panel for setting the number of points per correct answer. In this case, one (or more) of the quizzes was set for 2 points per correct answer, while others were set for 1 point per correct answer. Here is a screenshot of the complete control panel for the NAD Advanced Quiz Plugin. http://noobslimited.com/Advanced_quiz/advancedQuizScreenShot.png

Amazing. I've been seeking a T/F solution for a while.I think a few folks have. Great work on what is already an amazing piece of code. Thanks! I've been tinkering with some Android quiz code and trying to make T/F there. Lots of great examples to look at, but most are multiple choice and very few are T/F. Have you thought about BKG audio for the quiz? You could drop that and the "Hide from Search results" right into your index.php and have the functionality in minutes! Still anxious to get a look at that code and still marveling at the use of auto layout. Bravo.

@NadTheVlad. Wow, nice set of options in your plugin. That's great. BTW, as per @ATRAIN53, does the background audio now work? Also, if you add the correct/incorrect audio sounds do they actually work or do you have to edit the code still to get them to work - and do those sounds go into the normal BT_Sound folder in Xcode? Thinking I should get this plugin and redo my Quizzes with it. But, I do like the screenshots/button colors/etc of the original Quiz plugin...can you get the same effect with this plugin? Maybe some nicer looking screenshots, like the original plugin, might help? Cheers

Haven't thought about BKG audio, but I will. You are talking about having a song play in the background during the quiz? I'll add the hide from search results to the index.php for v2.0. This plugin still uses the old way of playing the correct and incorrect sounds. So some code modification is still needed. The instructions for the modifications are in the readme. I'll put this on my hit list for future versions. I think sound files can go anywhere in the project folders. The button background colors and button font colors can definitely be changed from inside the control panel. There are two areas that can have different colors. The question text and top bar with the time and score get one color. And the answer buttons get another color. The continue and share with buttons at the end of the quiz are stuck with black text on white background, for now.

One other thing this plugin DOES NOT have is the choice of animations for the question transition. All you get is the fade in and fade out. The changing box sizes make these difficult (but not impossible) to animate.
