Help with settings for number of attempts at a question
Feb 10, 2013

I have a challenge with getting consistency in the number of attempts learners can have with each question in Quizmaker.
There are 6 quizes in 2 cousres and the quiz properties of each is set so the number of "Attempts permitted" is "1"
Here's the results and our challenge:
- several of the quizes only allow one attempt for every question - which is what we need
- several quizes permit two attemps for each question, despite the settings described above
- 1 quiz permits only one attempt on Q1, then all successive questions permit 2 attempts.
I have saved and closed all applications and restarted them in an attempt to get the settings to apply. I have the same results whether the survey is run in preview mode or when published to the www.
I look forward to your advice as to what settings I need to make so that all quizes will only permit one attempt of each question.
Regards - Mark

Hi Mark,
The quizzes are all inserted in a Presenter presentation, correct? Are the number of attempts in both Presenter and Quizmaker set to 1 attempt?
In order to allow your quiz to be attempted a specified number of times, you need to enable the resume feature in Quizmaker. Here's how:
If you're still seeing multiple attempts available for some of the quizzes, or questions, please create a Presenter Package. Once the package has been created, please submit the files to us through a support case. You'll be able to attach the files on the second page of the form.
Hello Christine,
Thank you for your reply. I hadn't changed the numbr of attempts in the Quiz Properties and they were all showing as "unlimited".
However the situation described above remains, so I have submitted the cousre files through as a support case.
Thanks again - Mark
