Quiz Plugin Not Showing Questions

Hi Guys. This plugin doesn't seem to be working for me...the screen is not showing any question(s). Any suggestions? Thanks

Is this on iOS or Android? First thing I would do is make sure your configuration data file is synced up. Sometimes that causes problems. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sp2vL1XCPC0 If this is iOS, make sure you have the BT_Plugins folder, and all associated plugins, dragged into your Xcode project.

Thx...but nevermind...figured it out :-) The default folders were missing...next question...is there a configuration guide for this plugin, e.g. how to display next question without a long delay, etc? A little .pdf would be nice :-) Cheers

Nobody has written one yet, but that sounds like a good topic. There have been some forums posts about that...I'd use Google to search for them. Shouldn't be "too" hard to find. Mark

Have you checked out the advance quiz options in the control panel? There is an option there for controlling the exact thing you mentioned - set "Delay Between Questions" to '0' and that will get rid of the delay

Yes, I checked out all the options and have used them. I was just suggesting a nice .pdf with example uses and scenario would really help adoption of these plugins, and more sales for the developers who are developing the paid ones :-) Cheers

Yeah, that is a good idea - the quiz can really be customized in a million different ways if you get into the code If you're trying to figure something out or awaiting a response to a thread, you might as well jump into the BT_screen_quiz.m in the meantime and get a feel for the code. Like David said in a recent interview - it's really not as scary as it looks (due largely to the fact that there are tons of helpful green text notes everywhere telling you what's going on) I've found that changing certain display aspects of the quiz from the code is pretty simple, but changing the way the quiz runs is a LOT harder keep in mind I'm not a coder :)

Good ideas :-) I guess it's a matter of investing more time into it. Cheers
