Questions¶

Creating and managing questions is crucial to all quizzes management system, Under Questions we will be able to create/edit our questions, define proposals, choose their type, categories, etc. ...

Let's create a new question. This can be done through the New button

JQuarks features three different types of questions :

• Single choice questions ( radio control for answers )
• Multiple choices questions ( checkbox control for answers )
• Free answer ( input field for replies )

We do not have to worry about the type of question that we create, JQuarks determine the following proposals that we provide.

• No proposition, the question will be a free answer one
• One or more proposition for which we only check one as correct, the question will be a single choice question
• One or more proposition for which we check many as correct, the question will be multiple choice
• It is important to note that JQuarks is optimized to work with the TinyMCE editor and the latter must be activated ( Support for other editors will be added soon )

Let's create our question, and add some suggestions

The question we have now is a single-choice question.

A final step is to assign the question to a category. Categories are groups of thematic questions manageable via JQuarks (they are independent of the categories that Joomla manage). These categories are not meant only to help organize questions by subject but are, as we shall see later, important to the Sets of questions

Adding a category may be made directly from the question's editing screen or from categories.

Note that if we choose to not define a category JQuarks store the question as Uncategorized. Of course you can change the category afterward

Finally we will save our question using the save button

We just added our first question. Now let's move on to the Sets of questions and how create them
