How to create a quiz on a WordPress site?
The essential information to create a quiz on your WordPress site, and make your site more interactive and engaging.
Find a quiz topic
Before creating your quiz on WordPress, it's important to know what topic you want to cover. You also need to define the objectives of your quiz. Do you want to test your visitors' knowledge, introduce them to a new topic, or simply entertain them? Once you have decided on the topic and objectives, you can move on to creating the quiz.
Choose a quiz creation tool
Several tools allow you to create quizzes on WordPress. They don't all offer the same features, so it's important to choose the one that best suits your needs. You can first try to do it manually, but this can be long and tedious. There are WordPress plugins that make it easy to create quizzes, like Plug And Quiz. With this plugin, you can create interactive, personalized quizzes and even choose the format in which you want to present them (multiple choice questions, true/false, etc.).
Create the quiz
Once you have chosen your tool, you can now start creating your quiz.
First, if you don't have an account on Plug And Quiz yet, create one. Then, you can start creating your quiz by following these steps:
Click on the "+" button to create a new quiz.
Give your quiz a title and add a description if necessary. You will be redirected to the quiz editor.
Add questions by clicking on "+" on the right side of the screen. You can choose from different types of questions: Standard questions (which correspond to multiple or single choice questions), True/False, fill-in-the-blanks, matching (associating elements) and ranking (ordering elements).
Customize the quiz
Several options allow you to customize the behavior of your quiz. You can add a time constraint, choose whether the answers are displayed after each question or at the end of the quiz.
You can change the appearance of your quiz by choosing a theme, or by customizing the colors and fonts one by one.
Integrate the quiz on WordPress
Once your quiz is ready, you can integrate it on your WordPress site. For this, you have two options:
1. Use an iframe
You can integrate your quiz using an iframe. To do this, go to the "Share" section and copy the URL of your quiz. Then, paste this URL into the editor of your WordPress page using the "Custom HTML" block. Here is an example of iframe code:
<iframe src="https://www.plug-and-quiz.com/play/your-quiz-id" width="100%" height="600px" frameborder="0" ></iframe>2. Use the WordPress plugin
If you prefer to use the WordPress plugin, download it from the WordPress plugin library.
Your website URL will need to be added in the "Domain" section of your Plug And Quiz account beforehand.
For more information on installing the plugin, consult the official documentation.
Test the quiz
Now it's time to test your quiz to make sure it works correctly. Click on the "Preview" button in your quiz editor to see what it looks like.
Analyze the results
You can also analyze the results of your quiz to see how your visitors answered the questions. This can help you improve your quiz and better understand your audience's interests.
