Quiz attempts - variable placement Sep 05, 2017 By Lesley Condon I have added a variable to say when attempts reaches two, disable the retry button, however when I test the module it continues and allows me more attempts. Where should my variable be placed, on the layer or on the slide? JQ_cleaning_quiz..story
Wendy Farmer Hero over 6 years ago09/06/17 at 2:22 am (UTC) Hi Lesley see if the attached works how you want. I changed the default value of the variable to 1. Then added the triggers to the fail layer - be careful with trigger order. If the adjust variable is after a jump to trigger it will never execute. So the first time they go through the quiz is attempt 1 > Fail > Click retry adds + 1 to variable > Go through quiz again = attempt 2. Hope I've understood how you wanted to do it.
