QuizMaster Development Update

QuizMaster now has it’s own website separate from the GoldHat Group (developer website) and it’s domain is WPQuizMaster.com. This site offers the pro version of QuizMaster and has the documentation and support forums for QuizMaster.

We’re proceeding full steam ahead with development now after a short break from releases. The big push was made over the past couple of months to complete rewrite the javascript for the front-end quiz system. This was not easy and we’re still working out bugs before integrating into a future release. The new system is a jquery plugin (quizmaster) that has many events that extensions can tap into in order to enhance or change what happens during the user taking a quiz. Aside from that our goal was a more stable, and lighter-weight javascript file. We reduced the lines of code from about 2,200 in WP Pro Quiz down to just over half that number in the refactored QuizMaster version.

Right now the major challenge we face is getting the word out about QuizMaster and having both adoption from WP Pro Quiz users, but also having developers begin to work with us in building useful extensions. There is good long-term opportunity for developers that want to partner with us (or work independently) on QuizMaster Extensions. We will allow 3rd party developers to sell their extensions on WPQuizMaster.com under our extension developer program (details to be announced soon). Developers can also release free extensions to the WP directory and it’s a great way to prove your plugin development, and QuizMaster experience and attract customers.

We’re about to start a gofundme campaign in an effort to find financing for the upcoming round of development. If anybody has a quiz site and wants to chip in to our development they can either help us out with that, or donate to the plugin, or contact us about custom extension development. Thanks!
