I am having a major problem with Quizmaker. I have created a quiz that have the questions appear in a very specific order. After publishing the course, approximately every third time I run through the quiz it shuffles one of the questions. It is not always the same question either.
My quiz consists of 8 hot spot questions. I tried creating a new question group for each question, but I get the same glitch. This is a bug that I need a fix for.
I just put all the questions into one group, randomized the group, then locked the questions into place. I still get the same issue. My course is actually three seperate quizes, each being a series of hot-spot questions. When published, any one of the quizes can act up.
In my latest attempt, For example, I go through questions 1, 2, and 3. After hitting submit on question 3, I could quickly see question 4 pop up, then fade away without pressing anything. Question 5 comes up, then 6, 7, 8, 9, and then 4 at the end.
Peter, I have started the upload of THREE *.quiz files. I published each spereartley from Presenter and am still getting the same issue. You may have to run through the quiz a few times before you see it skip. It is happening for all of them.
I have this happen in odd quizes, I dont know why, the only solution I found was to randomise the quiz then lock each question to the one a bove and below
Normally this stops it happening, not an ideal solution
Hey Phil, I tried the same thing, but it didnt work. Thank you though. A co-worker of mine told me he has the same issue from time to time. Perhaps its a bug that cannot be fixed. I may have to use Presenter to create my quiz.

Hey Joe,
I'm guessing the issue has something to do with group pooling. Have a look at this tutorial to see if it helps clear anything up for you:

If that's not helpful, let us know if you'd like us to take a look at your files. Good luck!

Thoughts?
Hi Joe,
Can you go ahead and send us your zipped project files so we can take a closer look at them? You can do that here:

Sorry about the frustration, but we're happy to help get this resolved. Thanks!

Thanks for the heads-up, Joe. Feel free to leave your case number here as well, so I can follow it personally. Thanks!

Hi Peter, I just uploaded the entire published course. I had three seperate people email me from Support last week who could not re-create the issue.
I tried on multiple computers and am getting the same problem.
It happens both on the LMS and as a published HTML.

Its starnge a bit random, the other thing to try is importing the questions into another quizmaker file that might fix it
