Is there a way that when a quiz is taken more than once only the highest score is retained? I found this in the API.js file: "Previous score was greater than new score, configuration only allows scores to improve" but it doesn't appear to be doing that. Every time the quiz is retaken the score is replaced with the current score.
you can try the following method to retain the highest score,
after publishing the course in the published output folder there is LMS folder if you publish your course to LMS, In thet LMS folder there is a Configuration.js file in that file you will have to change the variable SCORE_CAN_ONLY_IMPROVE = false; to true, hope this helps
That worked. Thanks! Now I have a different problem...is there a way that the completed status stays completed if they retake the test a second, third, etc time and fail it?
That typically depends on your LMS. Most LMSs will set the course into "review" mode so that the user can't overwrite the score - but that behavior can be modified as described here.
I'd look at testing the course in SCORM Cloud first as it's an industry standard for testing LMS content. Here are directions on how to test at SCORM Cloud. If the odd behavior persists there we'll want to take a look at your file, and if it works as expected at SCORM Cloud you'll want to connect with your LMS team for additional review.

I changed the config file and it does the same as before. I'm stumped. Thanks for your help.

It works in SCORM Cloud.
Hi Vanessa,
You'll want to share those results with your LMS team than, as it's an industry standard for testing SCORM content.
