Creating a Quiz/Test with Chronoforms

Hi,

I´m creating a Quiz/Test with Chronoforms. Now I need to know a few things.

1. How do I set a Radiobutton Answer to be the 'correct' answer (want to show this in the Email)
2. Is there a Timer option? (Quiz-time: max 30 mins)
3. Can I use the input data from a test in an other test? (So the user doesn´t have to fill out the form again)

Thanks

Hi ITHamster,

1) I guess you'd have to add the 'marking' in Custom Code. You don't say here how to tell which answers are correct.

2) No, you could possibly set a time in JavaScript but how would you stop people re-loading the quiz in a different browser window?

3) Yes, if you save the data and have a way to identify the user again.

Thanks for the fast reply.
The Quiz/Test is almost done :-)

1. You´re right. Unfortunately there´s no way to set the Answer as a 'correct' Answer. I will set the Correct answer in the E-Mail the user gets (Your Answer: A - Correct Answer: A). That should be ok.
2. Problem not solved yet
3. Solved the Problem. I´m using the "Data to Session" and "Session to Data" action.(Problem was the Session key wasn´t set)

Is there a way to send an E-mail to the User input E-Mail-Adress?

ITHamster

Hi ITHamster,

Yes, Use the To Email on the Dynamic tab in the Email action. Please see this FAQ

Bob

It´s working fine, thanks.

My last problem is to get the number of correct answers. I´m useing jQuery here. I´m now trying to set the value of the corerct Answer to "correct" and count the correct answers checked on the form. But it doesn´t work till now.

So now I´ve got the number of the correct answers checked!

var faalle=0;
var fa1=0;
....

// input_radio_1_1 is the correct answer of the first Question:

jQuery(document).ready(function() {
   jQuery('#input_radio_1_1').click(function(){
      var isChecked1 = jQuery('#input_radio_1_1').is(':checked');
       fa1=1;
       sum();
   });
});
....


function sum (){
var faalle = parseInt(fa1) + parseInt(fa2) ...;
alert(faalle);
}

How can I use var faalle in the Email-Template??

Hi ITHampster,

Sorry, I'm not very good at JQuery. I would expect that you need to add the value to a hidden form input.

Bob

Thank you for the reply.

So now I need to get the database Entry, for example "Question 1 : correct" and count the correct answers.
I need to use it in the GH Email action. Text needs to be "Correct Answers X out of 50". 50 questions is a fixed.
I´m using the DB save and the DB Record loader with db field cf_uid for this but it´s not working yet.

Hi ITHampster,

You can do that using PHP in a Custom Code action.

Bob

Ok, the connection is working and I get the Answers from Question 1 but from all Records.
Can I select the current User´s answer?

Hi ITHampster,

If you have the User ID in the table then you can use that in a WHERE clause to filter the results.

Bob

Yes I created a standard table with all the CF_ Entrys in it.

I have 2 Forms now:
Form1: "Test" - db save - redirect to Form2
Form2: "Testauswertung" - db record loader - (next steps: E-Mail action, ..)

So I submit Form1 and the db save action is writing data to the table. That´s working fine.

But in Form2 I don´t see the data. The link is showing up like ..index.php?option=com_chronoforms&chronoform=Testauswertung without a token and/or cf_uid.
I was using the Tutorial PDFs for this but it´s not working yet.

If I place a hidden field "cf_uid" in the Form, the DB Save action doesn´t save a value for cf_uid to the table (tried this too).
