Broken for the past 3 versions. If accurate scoring matters drop back to version 7.3.4.
Use this file: https://downloads.wp.xz.cn/plugin/quiz-master-next.7.3.4.zipSadly, I have no other suggestions.
@firshman asked if the plugin actually has suport.
My experience is that there are script writers somewhere, but nothing I would consider as serious support. It seems the developer never shows up here to respond to any reports.
About a year ago there was a way of submitting problem reports at the developer’s web site. Those would at least be answered, if not actually solved. Eventually, problems would be resolved, but not with any active communication.
Unfortunately, I invested heavily in making quizzes and accumulated several hundred BEFORE the product was taken over by the current developers (about version 6), converted from PHP code that worked, to JS code that is quite ragged. From then on, it looks like the developer is more interested in adding features and paid plug-ins than making reliable code.
This is the ONLY plugin that I have to prevent from auto updating … and each new revision has to be tested on a local/offline clone of my site to be sure it doesn’t break things.
FWIW, it appears that 7.3.7 is still useful. Find a copy at: https://downloads.wp.xz.cn/plugin/quiz-master-next.7.3.7.zip
I am NOT QSM support, but share your discovery that QSM is broken yet again. You can stop auto updates of plugins with the code found here: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-disable-automatic-updates-in-wordpress/
Thank you. 7.1.13 resolves the problem.
Needless to say, we’ve dropped back to an earlier version, 7.1.9 and it is OK.
Finding those earlier versions isn’t very easy because of very sloppy naming in your
github repository. For example, there are no branches for 7.1.10 or 7.1.11, and what appears as 7.1.8 is really 7.1.9.THANKS eedee!
A more specific example: https://www.grinlinggibbonsphotos.com/patrick-damiaens/
For single images, the caption appears in black text below the image. For galleries, the captions appear in white text within the image. Positions of those captions is determined by the gutenberg css.
Try the Image block and the Gallery block.
For examples, see http://www.grinlinggibbonsphotos.comYou might take a look at how MetaSlider offers 3 radio buttons:
* Media Library Caption
* Media Library Description
* Enter manuallyI haven’t looked at the internal code, but I’ll wager that both Caption and Description come along in the array that results from getting a Media Library object.
All the best,
OK. That will work.
ONCE AGAIN….
This is a ***BUG*** and it is NOT fixed.
1. %USER_COMMENT% is turned OFF on the quiz Options tab. OFF should mean they are not visible anywhere.2. But now (this is new) we have to explicitly remove them from the %QUESTIONS_ANSWERS% text settings. That is NOT fixed. It is a logic bug!
3. Additionally, there’s another BUG tossed in free. When editing the %QUESTIONS_ANSWERS% text, a spinner is running constantly.
My individual issue is resolved. The LOGIC issue is not resolved.
Why offer a switch to allow comments, and also set a default to display comments?
ILLOGICAL – a BUG!Thanks Kriti,
Now, I know where the unwanted information is coming from … from an unexpected development change that added %USER_COMMENT% to the default results text.Frankly, I think it is illogical to have a setting for including comments, but to have the %USER_COMMENT% value coded by default in new quizzes. That ignores the setting and causes the confusion this problem report represents.
Hello Kriti,
Perhaps I didn’t explain the problem well enough.
We have 125 quizzes, made BEFORE 7.0 They all use the following results template:
———————–
There are %TOTAL_QUESTIONS% questions and you have %AMOUNT_CORRECT% correct answers.
%QUESTIONS_ANSWERS%
Share this lesson and quiz: %FACEBOOK_SHARE%
———————–
Those quizzes produce results like these:
—-
There are 12 questions and you have 3 correct answers.If you’re busy on Saturday, we can go _______ movie Sunday afternoon.

On the Options page, “Enable Comments” is still set to no. Yet, the Comments Entered line shows up unexpectedly. I want the %QUESTIONS_ANSWERS% directive to behave as before. I don’t think I should have to construct a different results template to make it work as it always has.How?
%QUESTIONS_ANSWERS% has always shown only the questions and answers. Now it adds something extra. What changed?Question…
