Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Watu Quiz

Watu computes the number of points in total collected by the answers given by the visitor. Then it finds the grade. For example: If you have 2 questions and the correct answers in them give 5 points each, the visitor will collect either 0, or 5 or 10 points at the end. You may decide to define grades "Failed" for 0 to 4 points and "Passed" for those who collected more than 4 points. In reality you are going to have more questions and answers and some answers may be partly correct which gives you full flexibility in assigning points and managing the grades.
Yes. It's even highly recommended for answers to questions that allow multuple answers. If you just assign 0 points to the wrong answers in such question the visitor could check all the checkboxes and collect all the points to that question.
You need to create a post and embed the exam code. The exam code is shown in the green text above the questions table in "Manage questions" page for that exam. Please do not place more than one code in one post or page. Only one exam will be shown at a time. If you wish more tests to be displayed, please give links to them!
Watu Quiz uses the WordPress user registration / login system. So if you want to allow users to register for quizzes simply select "Require user login" in the Edit Quiz page and make sure "Anyone can register" is selected in your WordPress Settings page.
To embed a video from Youtube or a similar remotely hosted video, use the embed shortcode like this: [embed width="680" height="420"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ[/embed]. To embed locally hosted video you can use the "Add media" button in the rich text editor and insert your video. Sometimes this doesn't work even in posts so you may want to install some of the many available video player plugins.
Since it uses the standard WordPress user login system, it is compatible with BuddyPress and all membership plugins that we know about. Of course, some odd membership plugin that uses its own user login system might be incompatible with Watu.
You can use the standard WordPress way of translating plugins (via Poedit and .po / .mo files) or use plugin like Loco Translate. If using Poedit, your file names should start with "watu-". For example: watu-de_DE.po / watu-de_DE.mo. They should be placed in wp-content/languages/plugins folder.
Yes. You can create a folder called "watu" under your active WP theme folder. Then create a copy of the view file you want to modify, keep the original name, and place it in the "watu" folder there. (Do not create "views" folder). Then the copy of the template will be used instead of the original one. I'm getting "Error Occurred" message after submitting the quiz If you get "Error Occurred" when submitting a quiz, this is usually because there is too much data to be sent through Ajax. Watu normally uses Ajax to submit quizzes to make the user experience more pleasant. If your server cannot handle the data by Ajax for some reason (too much data, improper configuration, etc), you can switch off Ajax from Watu Settings page. Navigate near the bottom of the page and you will see heading "Ajax in quizzes". Select the problematic test(s) and save.
To let the user retry the quiz you simply need to take them back to the same page where the quiz is published (i.e. to refresh the page). So you can place a link or button in the "Final screen" of the quiz and that link or button will point to the quiz page itself.
If the script defines new objects it might not work in Ajax mode. Try to switch off Ajax for this quiz from Watu Settings page, then refresh the quiz page and submit again. This will usually solve the issue.
