    Bro…what are you talking about “future features…”? looool….

    This is your changelog for the last two updates.

    10.2.1 ( June 11, 2025 )
    Feature: Added option to display a limited number of random answer choices, always including the correct one
    Enhancement: Added setting to toggle quiz reload warning
    10.2.0 ( May 21, 2025 )
    Feature: Added server-side validation for contact form fields
    Feature: Added option to filter questions by type in the question bank
    Enhancement: Added ability to insert answers at any position
    Enhancement: Refined UI and messaging for popups and alerts
    Enhancement: Added alert to prevent accidental reloads

    What does the bold text represent if not what I asked?! quiz reload, accidental reloads…???!!! Where are they?
    Are you saying you wrote something there that wasn’t implemented yet?

    Any question or solution I find is for all users. So I prefer that discussions be public, not punctual, private solutions. I asked a simple question. Where is the option to prevent accidental closing of the test or accidental refresh that leads to reloading the test with other questions, without the user finishing their test. In the last two updates you wrote that you implemented this and that you improved it. I can’t find it at all. When I refresh the page which often happens, by mistake, especially on the phone, the test reload with other questions. By, by my first test, which I have solved 90%, and welcome other questions. This is frustrating and is about functionality, not extra options. :))

    Hello!

    The teacher is not also an admin. I am the one who told you that, in the email, the results are indecipherable for the science tests, especially mathematics, because the latex code is not rendered. So you offered me a variant in which the pdf with the results is automatically generated and it is attached to the email. I managed to introduce the pdf generate loading gif, which you had when exporting the pdf after the results, also when generating it for attachment, so from now the page is no longer blocked while that file is being generated without the user knowing why it was temporarily blocked. The idea is that that pdf would contain, in addition to the student’s answers, some details related to his solutions. When I have time, I will definitely manage to do that too. I will look into the code to see what the variables are and what is stored in the admin page and I will put that function in the code for generating the results.

    I even managed to make it send the email only if the user enters their email address, even though the send email option is always enabled. I have a lot of changes made to the code, which I don’t even remember, so only a file-compare on a new update would save me. :))

    I only wrote to you to help you with a suggestion for further improvement.

    Hi!

    In 10.2.1 appear “Added setting to toggle quiz reload warning”. But where is this option? When i refresh te page the quiz still reload with other questions.

    At the same time:

    0. You haven’t solved the problem with importing the questions. They are imported the same way, with the HTML code in visual mode and, in order to appear ok, you have to “Save” each question (you also posted a video, earlier, showing how to save the question again to appear properly). It makes no sense to save again an imported question that already exists. And, besides, how the hell i suppose to save, again, over 1000 imported questions?!
    1. There is no “question bank” and you keep talking about it in updates. I installed the plugin on a clean WordPress site and there is no question bank option.
    2. What is “Failed Database Queries”?
    If I click “Check If Already Fixed” only a red X appears, no text.
    3. The Latex (Mathjax) part has problems after this last update. On some questions it duplicates the latex code, I wake up with two equations written one after the other, and the answers are all duplicated one next the other. Until now was not such problem.
    4. You have a lot of errors, especially in tex-mml-chtml.js.
    5. Nothing has been solved with the most important option, keeping the order of the categories when we have random questions. It still does randomization in categories, which is absurd.


    I don’t know, but it seems like your updates are making it worse and worse, not better.

    That’s it, I’ve been using quiz maker for some time. And to understand what support means, I received a customized version especially for me, which generates a pdf with the results and attaches it to the email sent after solving the test. And I paid, a single payment of 50 dollars, for the smallest non-free option.
    There’s no point in telling you what it offers (it has a lot of options). Surely you know very well. But you don’t do anything to improve the plugin.

    Sorry, I switched to another plugin. The new plugin has everything I wrote and asked for so far. So I’m not the only one who saw a need in those requirements.

    1. It has an alert dialog if you want to close the page, if you refresh by mistake, etc. It’s absurd to say that this is a premium feature. It’s like saying “I’m asking you if you’re sure you want to delete only if you pay more”.

    2. The questions are displayed in the desired order of the categories. Even if they are random. That way, I can make a test in which math is first, then physics, then chemistry, etc. Not a mix, like in your plugin.

    3. It has “report question”. The user can report a question if there is something wrong with it. With yours, you had to print screen, send by email, etc. With the new one, report the question and I go directly to it and see what the problem is.

    4. Loading gif while the results are loading. Notice that I have reported all of these to you so far and you have not done any of them.

    5. It has no cache problems, it has no problem that sometimes it loads fewer questions in the results, the problem that several users have reported to you.

    6. It has the possibility to export pdf results, even to send pdf result as attached in email. In that way, the user will always have access to his results without the internet connection and no link to access the server again.

    The only thing I miss in the new plugin is the “upload image” option.

    So, with regret, I have given up on your plugin.

    You’re telling me that an option that prevents accidental exit from the test is an option that already exists in pro? That’s a bad joke.
    I have the impression that you use us to test your plugin, to come up with feedback and ideas that are absolutely necessary for the correct functioning of the plugin, and you implement them in the pro packages.
    I’m sorry guys, but you won’t hear anything from me anymore and I’m moving on to another plugin.

    Anything new about this feature?
    Your plugin’s main competitor has it (see photo).

    https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KgdRtxPIuLwvyow_1TT3FnaygaVf6m-9/view?usp=drive_link
    You don’t understand how important it is.
    Basically, it’s the most important feature for the correct functioning of the random questions section.
    Think about it, if I have a science test, where I want math, then physics, then chemistry, then biology, it’s absurd to make the test always have the same questions. So I give it random questions, as many as I want from each category. But it’s frustrating to also randomize their display on each category.
    When we choose the number of questions in each category, there we also choose the order of the categories (see photo).

    https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gbZznq4Uq8IVy8eI59nCFEv0AT254V1i/view?usp=drive_link

    What’s so hard to keep the chosen order there?
    Or you could do something that would be a real bomb, a platinum feature! You could make the option to create a quiz where, instead of importing questions, we can import other quizzes. Then we arrange them in the order we want and we don’t set anything random, because the other quizzes already have random questions. And it wouldn’t be extremely difficult to implement.
    Friend, believe me, I love your plugin, I made a lot of changes in the code so as not to bother you with minor, particular things, but I don’t understand how some problems, such as this one, seem minor to you.

    Hello!
    On the support site
    https://support.quizandsurveymaster.com/
    I can log in, see the profile, edit it, the email address is correct, etc.
    But it says there that the support site has moved and its new address is on
    https://quizandsurveymaster.com/
    But I can’t log in to the new address with the credentials from the other side. If I try to recover the password, it tells me that there is no user with that username and no one with that email address. So I have nowhere to download the latest version of qsm installer.
    I don’t know if it’s really ok to give my email here.
    Thanks!

    Yes, I saw it. I installed the update and everything is ok. Thank you very much and I look forward to the other two solutions. If I find any more problems I will help you. On the part of math tests, qsm will become the best without competition. Thank you and I wish you a successful new year.

    I put a wrong link in the message up before.

    This is the most important link

    https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HYBJvO3Ca_Twsigt2XwGfn7FLXpiUd9u/view?usp=drivesdk

    As you can se, You have &resulti_d, I have ?result_id.

    But I found a solution for this. The only problems now are this:

    1. Maximum points variable not stored in result database.
    2. The order of the questions in result are not the same as in the quizz when the quizz is set to random… This is very important.
    3. The random questions order is random even from categories. The best is to keep the order of categories and make random of the questions from every category. If I want dogs first let be dogs, and make random from dogs, not cats first and dogs second. Overall, the plugin is quite ok. But this is for me, which I know PHP, SQL etc. Maybe when I will have time I will make the categories fixed in random questions option.

    I think I can already help you because I have seen what the problem is.
    You simply forgot to put the field with the maximum score in the mlw_results table.
    You have:
    point_score – the score obtained by the participant;
    correct_score-the percentage of questions to which he answered correctly;
    correct – the number of questions he answered correctly;
    total – the total number of questions in the test.
    You don’t have the total_points or maximum_points field anywhere.
    It’s a bit of fun.

    So it is impossible that, after the end of the test, later, when we want to view the results, that maximum score can be taken from somewhere as long as it is not in the database. At the end of the test, it displays it correctly, because the variable is used at that moment in that test, it has a value, but when viewing the results later, it has nowhere to get that value.

    And even in the mlw_quizzes table there is no field that holds the maximum_points of that quiz.

    So MAXIMUM_POINTS is a variable that is used during the test, it is used by the results array, it is displayed when the SUBMIT button is pressed, but then, the result array is lost, as is natural, and the value of MAXIMUM_POINTS was not stored anywhere.

    I think I managed to find where the problem is.
    Let’s see an example. Let’s say that quiz 104 is visible in the admin interface but 105 is not visible (it is not imported)
    …/admin.php?page=mlw_quiz_options&quiz_id=104
    If I replace, manually, 104 with 105 in the link, the quiz opens for editing, but it does not have any link to “settings”, which is kept in the table “wp..post” and “wp.._postmeta”, as in this example: …post.php?post=3100&action=edit. If I press “settings” on the ghost quiz, opened by manually entering the id, no editing interface opens. So be careful how and when you change the permalinks in wordpress. The solution is to import the backup of the wp.._post and wp.._postmeta tables in addition to those related to the plugin …_mlw…

    Well, the problem is exactly shows in your video.

    After you imported the question you hit “save question”. I also discovered that if I press save question is ok, but is not normal. If I import one hundred questions is not normal to give save again to all one hundreds. If I don’t press save question and I refresh the page after import, all questions in the quezz have the html code in visual mode. Like <br/> or <img…>

    Try this: import a question, don’t hit save question, refresh the page or go to quizzes & surveys again. You will se the questions is saved in the new quizz but is with html code in visual mode.

    So this is the problem. Make the import function to import html text question stored in the database in html code in the new quizz.
