Customized branching doesn't work with blank feedback slides

Oct 08, 2012

I'm attempting to create blank, customized feedback slides for a word bank question.  I have branched the correct answer to the correct feedback blank slide and this is working properly.  However, if a user selects any of the incorrect answers nothing happens.  It doesn't branch anywhere - even though I set up the branching the same way as the correct feedback slide.  Please help!

Hey Sarah, it sounds like maybe the Attempts on that question are set to Unlimited. The way feedback in Quizmaker 09 works, when a question has unlimited attempts, the quiz will basically force the learner to stay on that slide till they answer correctly. In other words, the learner can never move past the question (this includes branching to a blank slide) until they've gotten the right answer.  

If you need to offer unlimited attempts on the question, then really the only way to do that and still provide feedback would be to display feedback text in a popup, rather than use a blank slide. You would need to enter some text in the "Feedback" field of the question editor for the wrong answer.

Does that help?
