Quizzer introduction
Features
Quizzer offers a lot of options enabling you to set up your quizzes in a variety of interesting ways.
Your quizzes can be used just for fun or can be used as a 'knowledge check' within any educational content.
Additionally, quizzes are great for using to stimulate interest in your website / brand. Set up your quiz in your RapidWeaver / Stacks site and then send out links to it via your social networks with appealing text such as: 'See how much you know about…' or 'Test your knowledge on…' or 'How well do you know…..?'

- Questions retained on screen whilst feedback is shown. This is achieved by selecting the option for 'Retain Questions'. Note: You also need to have 'Show feedback' selected. With these options, the correct answer(s) are tinted in the colour chosen for correct responses to visually show which were correct/incorrect.
- Option to re-take the quiz. This is achieved by adding text into the 'Try Again' text field.
- Limited questions. This quiz has been set to use 5 random questions from the full bank of available questions.
- Randomised. Questions and answers are shown in a random order.
- Indents removed. The answer options and the feedback are aligned left with question and button.

- Feedback hidden. Per question feedback has been disabled by unchecking 'Show feedback'
- End of quiz review. Instead of per question feedback (disabled above) this quiz shows the user their feedback for each question at the end of the quiz (by enabling the 'Review questions' option).
- Incorporating images. Images can be added by using the
imgtag and linking to the image location. - Embedding video. Videos can be embedded by (for example) using the embed code generated by YouTube. Simply paste this into the question string.
Quizzer Quiz File
The actual content for the quiz (questions, answers, feedback etc) is not created within RapidWeaver / Stacks. Instead, a separate file (in JSON format) is used and you link the stack to that. The file can sit in your RapidWeaver Resources folder or you can add it to an online folder somewhere and then link to it there. The latter option means that you are effectively 'warehousing' your quiz file and allows you (or others) to edit and update the content outside of RapidWeaver.
You can either create the required file by creating (or editing) your quiz file in a code editor or use our quiz code generator.
To find out more about the quiz file and its structure creation (and to download some examples) please visit the Quizzer Support portal.

FAQs
Below are some of the most common questions about this and our other stacks.
Stack FAQs
You could certainly try. And before Quizzer it might have been a reasonable option - certainly for adding single questions. But if you want to create a proper quiz then it is very hard (if not impossible) to achieve via most form stacks - certainly if you are wanting to provide things like per question feedback or to calculate scores etc.
Most online quiz generators offer a very limited free service. Even the paid versions are not particularly impressive. The options for styling your quiz are often limited and it can be hard to match your content to the rest of your site. Additionally, this approach also means that your quiz content is hosted on their servers.
