Quizmaker 360: What does the "Show in quiz review" checkbox do?
Feb 06, 2018
Hello, Studio 360 users! I have a question about a Quizmaker 360 feature. Does anyone know what the "Show in quiz review" checkbox option does?
Some quick background: I have a 5-slide quiz. The first slide is just a blank introductory slide that has instructions and a hyperlink to a document. The remaining four slides are the actual questions based on the document. In the Question pane for the blank intro slide at the start, there is a checkbox called "Show in quiz review". I unchecked it, since I don't want this slide to appear when users review their answers. However, the slide still appears when you click the Review Quiz button in the results slide, even with this unchecked. I guess I was hoping to restrict this intro slide from appearing when reviewing answers, because it's not an actual question.
Am I misunderstanding what this option actually does? Does anyone have any information on what it's supposed to do? Thank you!
(Edit: I tried to attach a screenshot, but the site gives me an error message of "An unhandled lowlevel error occurred" each time I try.)

Hi Andrew,
If you've unchecked that box, the blank slides should not be appearing in a Review. Could you share a copy of the .quiz file here?
If you're having difficulty uploading, can you try a different browser? Chrome and Firefox tend to work well!
Here you go!
Thanks for sending over your file, Andrew. It looks like we've got a bug here. The introductory slide incorrectly appears during quiz review in the HTML5 output, but it doesn't in the Flash output.
I'm going to share this with my team so we can begin looking into a fix. I appreciate you bringing this to my attention, and I'm really sorry if it is causing you headaches. I'll let you know as soon as a fix is released!
Thank you for confirming this! I feel like this one is a relatively minor bug compared to a handful of other bugs that my team is awaiting a resolution for. Nonetheless, I'm glad it's in your queue now. Thanks!
Is the "show in quiz review" checkbox still not working? I have not been able to get it to work so far...
Hi Jordan,
Thanks for checking in. I don’t currently have any updates, but you are now subscribed to this conversation which means as we share updates here, you’ll automatically be notified!
Hi,
I'm having the same problem. I realize this thread is old, but I can't find an update. I apologize if I've missed it somehow.
I've tried everything to suppress my introductory blank slide in the review, but nothing works. Can you help?
Hi Melanie!
I'm sorry this is affecting your course! I don't have any updates on the bug in Quizmaker 360 but when we do we'll report back to this discussion.
I see in the bug report that this is an issue specifically in the HTML output in Quizmaker 360. Are you viewing the course in a specific browser or LMS? If so, I'll make sure to add additional details to the report so we can continue troubleshooting.
Hi Lauren,
I'm publishing as HTML with Flash fallback. I have the problem no matter how I view it--in Review 360 in Chrome, Edge, or Safari and through my LMS on Moodle Cloud.
Is there any workaround for this until the bug is fixed? The only thing that seems to work is to import the quiz to Storyline, but that creates other issues.
Thanks!
Hi Melanie!
Thank you for those extra details! Unfortunately, we don't have any workarounds for this bug since it seems to be specific to the HTML output. I know this must be causing headaches!
I'll report back when I hear more about a fix.
Are there any developments on this issue?
The 'workaround' depends on outdated technology. The Articulate software now even warns you that Adobe is ending support for Flash 12/31/20.
Hello Conor!
I'm happy to help! If you're using Quizmaker 360, you can import the quiz into Storyline 360 for the interaction to work as expected. I've built a sample course for you to check out. Please let me know what you think!
Hi Lauren, Thanks for you reply. We chose to use Quizmaker because we need the option "submit all at once". It would be great if that feature would be available in Storyline as well. Because we would like have numbered and randomized questions as well, instead of having to use (hard-coded) numbered questions in Quizmaker.
Hi Conor,
We do have the option to Submit All in Storyline 360 as well:
Storyline 360: Submitting Answers All at Once
Thanks Leslie,
Sorry, I should have been more specific. In Storyline we're missing the option "Allow users to finish without answering all questions".
Hi Conor,
Thanks for the follow-up! Is your course menu restricted in Storyline 360? If not, as long as you have the Prev/Next buttons, the learner should be able to skip any question and submit all at once when they reach the results slide.
You can also use question banks to randomize a specific set of questions. If you'd like some help setting this up, feel free to share your .story file with our support team!

Hi Ren,
Thanks for offering to look at our files, but I've been trying this for some days and I'm pretty sure in Storyline we can't meet our requirements for an exam. We NEED to stop learners from submitting their answers when they haven't answered all questions. That's why we chose Quizmaker, even though we had to ditch some of our nice-to-haves (ie randomized AND numbered quistions).
With the settings in Quizmaker I shared in my previous post, it's possible to show learners the message below when they click "Submit all" and questions are incomplete. However, Storyline doesn't seem to have this option.
Unfortunately, we couldn't find any way of showing progress in Quizmaker (ie Question 1 of 15) without hard-coding the text to the slides. Which means we can't use randomized questions.
It would be great if we could do all this in Storyline (or Quizmaker), but for us it's important to stop learners submitting an incomplete exam.
Therefore, we would still like to know if and when the issue with the review slides will be solved.
Thanks, Conor.
I do not have a timeline to provide on the original issue that you mentioned. I wanted to share some information on how we define bugs and how we tackle them when they occur.
That being said, I wanted to help you find an update that may work for you.
I understand that you need your quiz to include:
I've created a simple file demonstrating an option. Please note, that the 'requirement' is more of an alert and the user can still submit without completing, but they would be making that choice and the questions would be marked incorrect.
Thanks Leslie, an alert would definitely be acceptable. However, one of your colleagues from the support department already suggested this solution. And unfortunately it doesn't work for matching drag-and-drop.
Hello! Has this issue yet been resolved (as originally reported by Andrew Lowe about 4 years ago)? I, too, have unchecked the "Show in quiz review" box for my introduction/instruction slide to a knowledge assessment, but when I publish the quiz (at least to the review site), the intro slide still appears when I click on the "Review Quiz" button on the results slide.
Hi, Gary.
While I don't have any updates to share for this bug fix yet, the current workaround is to import the quiz into Storyline.
I hope this helps!
