How can I save a quiz template

Hi, we seem to be having the exact same issue as Bieke Helsen noted above. I viewed the video shared and the same thing is happening in our software.

We need to have a template created and also be able to make additional quizzes from it but it's disappearing. Could you please contact us with the solution too?

Hello Casey and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)

Sorry to hear that you've run into a similar issue.

We were able to replicate the issue that Bieke reported above. This thread is attached to the report as well so that we can update when we can.

I wanted to share some information on how we define bugs and how we tackle them when they occur.

As a workaround, you can duplicate the quiz template first (either on the same folder or a different one), before creating and saving a new quiz based on this template. This way when the original one gets deleted, you have an extra copy of the template that you can still use in the future.

Hope that helps. You are welcome to edit your post above if you need to remove your e-mail address :)

We are having the same issue with Quizmaker 360. Was there ever a fix for this? Or is creating a copy prior to using the quiztemplate still the workaround?  Thanks.

Hello Cheryl!

Sorry, you're running into this issue! This bug fix hasn't made it on our roadmap as we are currently prioritizing other bug fixes and features. The current workaround is to create a duplicate copy of the quiz template before creating a new quiz.

I too am still experiencing the same issue as Bieke and Casey. 

I saved a quiz template to a folder on my local drive. Each time I use the saved template to create a new quiz, I save and publish the quiz with a new title, but then the template disappears from the original folder. I tried the Save As option, and the regular Save option to save the new quiz only. Neither has worked to create a new quiz, while leaving the original Quiz Template in-place. Each time I want to use the quiz template, I have to re-download it and put it back in its original folder on my local drive. 

Is there a fix for this issue yet? Or are users still being advised to use the following workaround:

Hi Steve,

I'm sorry you're experiencing this bug in the software! The workaround you mentioned in your post is still what we advise doing. I've added your voice to the report on this bug and when a fix is released you will be updated in this conversation.

Thank you for letting us know about your experience!
