Retry on Results Slide in Storyline
Having issues with the results slide. Specifically, when they click "retry" it forces the learner to go through the entire course again. I selected to have them only retry incorrect responses on the ...
The Review/Retry functions default to returning to the first question that's included in the quiz. It's programmed with the assumption that the questions will be adjacent. So it mostly relies on jumping to the next slide.
The option to only retry incorrect questions does also include some special programming to skip correct questions. But that's still based on whether the next slide is a correctly answered question. Otherwise, it'll just "jump to next slide" when the next slide is a content slide.

- However, the description and demo file are for stepping through all of the questions. To only go to the incorrectly answered questions, you'd also need to track the answers on all of the question slides and have jump-to triggers with conditions based on those.
- IMHO, that's not worth the programming effort. I'd just make them answer all of the questions again.

We don't use the player's next, back, and submit buttons... my team has our own that we made for courses. Will this work the same? This makes a lot of sense, though! I'm trying it out now. Thank you!
The same method should work with custom buttons. It's just about using the proper trigger conditions to determine what's "next" based on the situation (i.e., whether it's the first time through the course, during a quiz review, or during a retry).
Using meaningful names for variables helps with programming and troubleshooting.
And it's vital to thoroughly test it all.
Good luck!
This worked great, thank you so much! I need to practice more with variables. After discussing with my team, I think to keep it simple, we're going to put all of the questions in the last scene and only include those in the results slide and shuffle the answer options, like your article suggested. 😄
Simple is good. 😁
It is worth the effort to learn about variables and trigger conditions. They provide the real power in Storyline.
This post provides an overview of variables and also links to numerous resources.
The User Guide section about triggers include info about conditions.
