All about scores and the correct-checkbox

If you don´t need scores in your quiz, you should disable them with “dontShowPoints = 1”. If you need scores, but you want show them in the front end, don´t set “dontShowPoints = 1”! Change only the templates! “dontShowPoints = 1” will disable scores calculations too.

If you set the scores for each answer , then the quiz-program will ignore the scores set for a question. Furthermore the program will ignore the correct-checkbox. Answers with scores > 0 will be treated as if the correct-checkbox is clicked.And note too: no negative scores are then available!Exclusion: scores for each answers will be ignored if you set noNegativePoints=3 or 4.

Furthermore: if you set noNegativePoints=3 or 4, then the quiz taker will get in every case only once scores (not for every correct answer)!

If you use the type “ text input ”, then the correct-checkbox will be ignored too. The field with the text (normally answer 1) will be treated as if the correct-checkbox is clicked.

Important notice about the “ correct/false answered questions ” information: only if you check a correct-checkbox in the backend, answers will be evaluated. A questions without a checked correct- checkbox will be ignored therefor. Questions which have not been answered by the quiz taker will be ignored too - can be changed with TS-variable “noAnswer”!
