I have created a multiple fill in the blank question using a freeform pick 1. If the answers are correct all is fine. If the answers are not correct I get "You must complete the question before submitting." Any advice?
Please make sure that the incorrect choices are also added in the Form View as possible answers. This could cause the submit button the think they have not selected an answer. You could also share your file here with us if you would like us to take a look at the set up of the question.
Hi Robyn if you can share your story file it will be easier for folks to help you. Just use the grey 'add attach,don't' button at the bottom of the post.
The Correct button trigger should have the AND operator in the trigger and the Incorrect button trigger should have the OR ( if any of those entries are wrong - the answer is wrong)
...here's a tip I use
I set up the correct trigger with all the correct responses then the incorrect button I change to selected IF THE Correct button is not selected so you don't need all the conditions.
The second solution - I'm not sure I understand how to do it. When I tried, it still prompted the "you must complete the question before submitting" error.
Thank you anyway, I was so stressed when it didn't work yesterday! :)

Hello Amy!
Please make sure that the incorrect choices are also added in the Form View as possible answers. This could cause the submit button the think they have not selected an answer. You could also share your file here with us if you would like us to take a look at the set up of the question.
One other quick thing: be sure the Submit Interaction triggers is the bottom-most trigger. Has tripped me up!
Thanks for sharing Rebecca!
Hello... I am having a hard time with the Pick One... multiple FITB option.
I followed the instructions and read all the posts but it's still not working.
Can anyone help?
Hi Robyn if you can share your story file it will be easier for folks to help you. Just use the grey 'add attach,don't' button at the bottom of the post.
Hi Wendy! Thanks for your reply. Ok I've attached the file and you should see the answers as well.
Hey Robyn
sorry just ducked down to the beach to take some sunrise shots for New Years Day...
On first look you haven't included the Correct/Incorrect buttons on the form view - this is what drives the interaction.
Add those in and let me know if you still need help.
How nice!
Hmm I removed all the other slides in the file so perhaps it affected that. I will resend.
No worries Robyn, I can add the buttons in this file and select the Correct one on form view.
Here you go
You had Meg Thomas as the Signature in the triggers instead of Timothy Johnson - attached updated file.
Wow Wendy. You are the best!!
Thank you soooo much!
Have a wonderful New Years!
Glad to help Robyn - Happy New Year to you too and good luck with your project!

Beautiful! Have a great summer!
Hello, I have the same problem with my quiz slide (attached).
I have set the correct and incorrect buttons but the triggers don't work for some bizarre reason (it is bizarre to me of course).
It would be of great help if someone could check what am I doing wrong.
Thank you!!!
Hi Olga
try this:
The Correct button trigger should have the AND operator in the trigger and the Incorrect button trigger should have the OR ( if any of those entries are wrong - the answer is wrong)
...here's a tip I use
I set up the correct trigger with all the correct responses then the incorrect button I change to selected IF THE Correct button is not selected so you don't need all the conditions.
Hope that helps.
Thank you Wendy! It worked (your first tip)!
The second solution - I'm not sure I understand how to do it. When I tried, it still prompted the "you must complete the question before submitting" error.
Thank you anyway, I was so stressed when it didn't work yesterday! :)
Hi Olga
glad you got it working.
If I get a chance today I'll update your file with the two options so you can see what I mean.
Thanks again! Look forward to it!
Here you go - file attached but this is the trigger I changed for the Incorrect button.
Right! Looks so easy now that I see it :)
Thanks again - I do understand now why this community is called heroes :)
Yay! Glad these discussions are helpful for you, Olga. Wendy is definitely an e-learning hero in our eyes, too!

Slide 1.22. What is wrong?
Hi Musa,
Here's a working version. I swapped Player Triggers and adjusted TextEntry boxes and variables (but it maybe because I deleted other slides).
