open answer to question?

  • In WP Pro Quiz – Is it possible to have an open answer to a question? ie. a bit like a survey where the user just types in a few of their own words to respond to “What’s your biggest struggle with….”

    I only need one short questionnaire for this, so was wondering if it could be done with Pro Quiz to save me setting up a whole new plugin? Thank you

  • I don’t think that’s possible. The people will have to writte some exact words for the data base. I don’t think it can do it.

    Marlene, when you add a question use the answer type “Free choice”. This will present the quiz taker with a simple TextArea they can enter the answer. There is normally “scoring” by listing correct answer strings. You can get around that by just entering “anything” as the correct answer.

    How this will look to the user, I’m not so sure… meaning they will see their “score” at the end, they will have gotten this kind of question “wrong” no matter what you ask them. I’m presuming you don’t actually want to score their answer, you just want to collect the information?

    What is needed in WP Pro Quiz is probably a “don’t include in scoring” option, which would be better for assessments and questionnaires.
