Quiz System PRO - Gamification, Analytics, Certificate & User Engagement 1.5.9

Minor bug fixes and compatibility with xenforo 2.3.11

This update introduces a powerful tool for administrators to create fresh content instantly and fully standardizes our newest features for international communities.

Here are the main highlights of this release:

New Features & Improvements

• The Master Quiz Generator: Administrators can now automatically generate a brand-new quiz by pulling random questions from existing quizzes. You can choose to extract questions from a single specific category or combine multiple categories simultaneously to create a global mixed test. The engine handles everything automatically, including physical duplication of answer images to prevent broken files.
• Admin CP Integration: The Master Quiz Generator is fully accessible from both the public side and the Admin Control Panel, offering total flexibility in content management.
• Complete Phrase Standardization: All recently added strings, including pagination buttons (Next and Previous), have been fully integrated into XenForo's native phrasing system.

What's coming next in 1.5.9/1.6.0? Get your API keys ready! Now that the core generation engine is up and running, our next release will introduce A.I. Quiz Generation via Gemini API, allowing you to create complete quizzes from scratch based entirely on custom topics and prompts.

How to upgrade: Simply upload and overwrite the files, then run the upgrade process from your Admin CP.

We are thrilled to announce the release of Advanced Quiz System 1.5.7! This release heavily focuses on improving the User Experience (UX) while taking quizzes, and it finally brings complete question management directly into the Admin Control Panel (Admin CP), fixing several historical bugs.

Here are the main highlights:

New Features (Frontend & UX)

• New Global Option "Show one question per page": Say goodbye to infinite scrolling! We have introduced a smooth Javascript pagination engine featuring a beautiful "Spring 3D" animation. Users will now see one question at a time and navigate using Next and Previous buttons. Everything happens without reloading the page, keeping the timer perfectly synced and significantly reducing cognitive load.
• Random Questions Order (Anti-Cheating): Added the highly anticipated option to shuffle the question order. By enabling this checkbox in the individual quiz settings, the order will dynamically change on each attempt, boosting replayability and making the tests memory-proof.
• Glass UI Optimization: Minor aesthetic refinements to the Glass UI to make it even more elegant and responsive on mobile devices.

🛠 Admin CP Improvements & Bug Fixes

• Integrated Backend Question Editor: You no longer need to use the public side of the forum to create or edit questions! We have fully implemented the editor inside the Admin CP, complete with image upload support (PRO version), dynamic toggle between Single/Multiple Choice, and the Explanation field.
• Fix - Redirect Loop: Resolved a critical bug (ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS) that prevented the question list from displaying in the Admin CP.
• Fix - "Page Not Found" on New Question: Corrected the routing of the "Add Question" button in the backend, which previously triggered a 404 error.

What's coming in 1.5.8? (Sneak Peek)We are not stopping here. We are already working on the next major release, which will introduce two revolutionary features: the internal Master Quiz Generator (to dynamically build tests by pulling questions from other existing quizzes) and a brand new A.I. Integration via Gemini API to generate complete quizzes in seconds!

How to upgrade:Upload the files, overwrite the existing ones, and run the upgrade from the Admin CP. No manual database action is required.

Hello everyone!We have just released a maintenance update for the Quiz System (v1.5.6) to address a few bugs reported in the previous version and to improve the overall stability of the add-on.

Changelog / What's fixed in 1.5.6:

• Admin CP Edit Fix: Resolved an issue where editing and saving an existing quiz via the Admin CP would incorrectly create a duplicate entry instead of updating the original one.
• Admin CP Category Dropdown: Fixed a bug that caused the Category selection dropdown to appear empty when editing a quiz from the Admin panel.
• XP & Level Synchronization: Unified the XP calculation engine across the entire board. The Global Podium, the Top Users widget, and the Postbit User Levels are now perfectly synchronized and will strictly count points earned from "visible" quizzes only.
• Widget UI Improvements: Fixed a minor visual glitch with the border-radius on the Top Users widget and added full support for the new Dark Glass UI mode.

We highly recommend all users on v1.5.5 to upgrade to this version for a smoother and more consistent experience.

You can download the update right now. Thank you for your continued support and feedback!

We are thrilled to announce a massive new update for the Quiz System! This release focuses heavily on aesthetics, introduces highly requested features, and improves overall system stability.

Here is what’s new in this version:

1. Stunning "Dark Glass UI" Mode (PRO Exclusive)We have introduced a completely new rendering engine for dark themes! If you run a dark style on your board, you can now enable the "Glass UI" from the Admin CP. This applies a gorgeous, modern Glassmorphism effect (blurred semi-transparent backgrounds, neon-glowing badges, and sleek borders) to all Quiz pages (Index, View, Take, Leaderboard, Results).This is a PRO-only feature and a great way to make your community look incredibly premium.

2. Global Podium & Individual Quiz LeaderboardsThe Quiz Index page just got a massive visual upgrade! We've added a dynamic, 3D-style podium that showcases the Top 3 players globally based on their total XP points. Additionally, a public leaderboard system is now available for each individual quiz, boosting user engagement and competition.

3. "View Results" Dashboard for Authors & AdminsThis was a highly requested feature! Quiz authors (and Administrators) now have a dedicated "Results" button on their quizzes. This opens a private dashboard showing exactly who took the quiz, their exact score, pass/fail status, and the date. To handle large quizzes, we also built-in a Pagination system and a Search Bar.

4. Bug Fixes & Submission Flow ImprovementsWe completely rebuilt the quiz submission flow to fix some technical behaviors and improve reliability:

• No more popups: Submitting a quiz now safely redirects the user to a dedicated, full-page Result Dashboard, rather than opening a quick AJAX popup.
• BFCache Blocking: If a user tries to hit the "Back" button in their browser after finishing a quiz, the system intercepts it, forces a hard page reload, and clears the inputs. This prevents duplicate or altered submissions and locks the user out if they have exhausted their max attempts.

5. Beautiful "Max Attempts Reached" PageWhen a user runs out of allowed attempts for a specific quiz, they will no longer see a generic error. We built a beautiful, dedicated landing page (fully compatible with the new Glass UI) that clearly shows their used attempts and guides them back to the quiz list.

You can download the update right now. As always, let us know your feedback!

Update Highlights:This release focuses on refining the user experience based on community feedback. We have improved the code structure, polished the UI, and verified compatibility with the latest XenForo versions.

Changelog:

• Improved User Experience (Free Users): We have removed the intrusive overlay popup for free users. Limits are now handled more gracefully without interrupting navigation.
• Visual Fixes: Fixed a graphical issue where icons in Quiz Results were not displaying correctly. The layout is now consistent.
• Category View Restored: Restored the classic, highly appreciated graphical style for the Category Grid (white cards with gradient icons and "Open Category" buttons).
• Admin Analytics Teaser: Admins without a Pro license can now see a preview of the Analytics section in the Quiz Index (displayed with a blurred visual effect), while Pro users get full access.
• Template & Code Updates: Fixed specific bugs within the template code and updated the syntax to fully comply with XenForo 2.3.9 specifications.
• Performance: General code refactoring, optimization, and cleanup for better performance and stability.

Upgrade is recommended for all users.

The templates on our site are updated with modern, responsive Glassmorphism effects, providing a sleek and immersive user experience across all devices. In the future the theme will be included for free to all pro users who support the development of this component.

Version 1.5.1 is here!

This is a major stability release. We have combined the core rewrite of 1.5.0 with immediate logic improvements from 1.5.1 to ensure a rock-solid experience for both new users and existing communities.

Changelog & Key Features​

1. Notification System: Restored & Optimized
The "New Quiz" alert system is back and better than ever!

• Follower Alerts: When a user creates a quiz, their followers will now correctly receive an alert.
• Fixed previous SQL errors related to alert delivery.

2. Installation & Routing Fixes

3. Stricter Data Validation
We improved the "Create Quiz" controller to prevent user errors:

• Mandatory Category: It is no longer possible to create a quiz without selecting a category. The system throws a clear error message instead of creating "orphan" quizzes.
• Duplicate Prevention: Added a check to prevent accidental double submissions (e.g., double-clicking save) that resulted in duplicate quizzes.

4. Smarter "Free vs Pro" Logic

• Free Version: Works out-of-the-box without errors. No license key is required to play (includes footer branding).
• PRO Version: Inserting your license key instantly unlocks advanced features (Charts, Certificates, White-labeling, etc.).

This release brings a unique visual touch and a massive overhaul to the Notification System. We focused on stability, performance, and pure style.

New "Italian Style" PRO Widget We have reimagined the sidebar widget for PRO users with a touch of class:

Rebuilt Notification System

• Smart Alerts: Notifications are now handled by a dedicated Alert Handler.
• User Choice: Added a native "Opt-Out" preference. Users can now disable "New Quiz" alerts directly from their account settings.

Technical Improvements

• Code cleanup: Removed deprecated content types and unused templates.
