Importing a quiz (i.e., not just a question)

    My team is interested in importing quizzes (i.e, not just questions) from WP Pro Quiz into Watu. I’ve been reviewing the docs, and thus far, I can’t find a way to import an entire quiz; just questions into a pre-existing quiz, which would require a lot of manual work up-front. Is there a way to import full quizzes (a quiz plus answers/questions) into Watu?

    Thanks!!!

    Thanks for your interest. I’m afraid there is no such option due to the big difference in the DB structure of both plugins.

    Thanks for your quick reply! I have a follow-up question, if I may. Let’s say that Pro Quiz were not in the picture and I were to create the .csv import file by hand. Would I still need to create the quiz from the WordPress dashboard before I could import the .csv file?

    I ask because of these sentences in the documentation: “WatuPRO exports files in this format. Use it always when importing questions exported from other WatuPRO quiz.” I may just be misunderstanding, but it gave me the impression that I could export quizzes from one instance of WatuPRO and import them into another without any “manual” work up front.

    Thanks again.

    For copying whole instances you can use this procedure:

    It’s valid for both Watu and Watu Pro.

    The CSV import/export supports only questions, not whole quizzes.
