Yes, there is an option for iOS. You can find it at buzztouchmods.com I used it on my last app, worked well.

Hey Crown, Do you have a link for that plugin? I can't see it on BTM (maybe I'm blind). Thanks // J

Hi Javooooo and CameronW, I posted the quiz plugin not on btmods but on this forum: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/53389962/Plugins/quiz/UnzipMeFirst.zip First read document before install (don't forget to create a database for the score.php) Best Regards, Danny

Thanks PSMDanny for the Quiz plugin for self-hosted bt-server! I'm currently testing it and found some bugs (besides the top navigation bar bug which has to be set to transparent - yes, I've found the post about it): 1. Someting wrong with the count: I've set the points to 100 for every good answer, but if I have 3 good answers I get 500 points! 2. You can't keep the tab bar in the quiz, it disappears and... 3. When you arrive on the reward or failure screen, the tab bar doesn't come back, even if you set the screen options to Don't hide the tab bar Just one detail: I use the quiz plugin without scoreboard (haven't set it up as I don't need it, I just wish to send the players to the reward or failure screen). In my control panel, the Check for updates option tells me there is a 1.1 version of the quiz plugin, but I don't find it on buzztouchmods - is this v1.1 linked to these bugs? Thanks for help and best greetings Jack

Hi Fusionsch, Good to hear you're testing. Strange thing is that I can't reproduce your problems. I have a testing app on my ihone 3gs and it works as supposed. - I have set the quiz to 150 point for a good answer and works as supposed?? - Top navigationbar still present during quiz - tab bar doesn't come back? I don't know what you mean by this! If I finish the quiz I get the screen with 'continue, show scoreboard, try again and quit'!! - without the scoreboard and don't need it: if you don't need it, what is a reward or failure screen. 1.1 version I think you have the latest version, to be sure check this please: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/53389962/Plugins/quiz/UnzipMeFirst.zip Last thing: Have you tried to make a quiz with bt1.5 ? Do you experience the same problems? The quiz for bt2.0 is an exact copy of the bt1.5 version. Best Regards, Danny

Hi Danny! Thanks for your answer, I'll check the link asap, meanwhile some more info if it can help: I'm testing on iOS 5.0 on iPhone 4 and iPad 2. Top navigation bar ok if set to transparent, but if you set it to solid the first line of the quiz questions is hidden. Tab bar is automatically hidden in the quiz and doesn't reappear on what I call the reward and failure screens. At the end of the quiz, if you have enough points you see the score and 3 buttons: Show reward (if you tap you go to what I call the reward screen) Try again (replay the quiz) Quit (and you go back to the screen where you were before loading the quiz) If you don't have enough points, you see the score and 3 buttons: Continue (if you tap you go to what I call the failure screen) Try again (replay the quiz) Quit (and you go back to the screen where you were before loading the quiz) I've found the score issue: forgot to install the QuizImages folder and forgot that some good answers make you get 2x or 3x the points. (Anyway, I don't know where I could change these rules of multiplied points... if you have clues, you're welcome!) Yes, I've used the quiz in bt 1.5, the total score was right, checking it made me discover my error. But anyway, in my v1.5 app featuring a quiz, I didn't try to make the tabs reappear on the reward and failure screens. All this brings me to a new question, more general: from a screen with tabs, you go to a screen where tabs are hidden and then (from that screen with tabs hidden) you go to another screen where the options are set to Do not hide the tab bar. Will the tabs reappear? If not, is there a function that would force the tabs to reappear? Thanks for your help and best greetings Jack

I've checked out http://dl.dropbox.com/u/53389962/Plugins/quiz/UnzipMeFirst.zip and updated my self-hosted bt-server: it's still 1.0 and there is still the message 'A newer version is available: v1.1 Update recommended' when I click on 'check for updates'.

I also have the message that there's a new version available. And, sorry I'm new to this... but I'm not quite sure what I'm supposed to do when the readme says: "– put score.php somewhere on a / your server and point to it in the advanced properties (see Quiz Scoreboard URL) and fill in the database settings (line 59 – 62)" I input my database settings in lines 59-62. I put the score.php file in my buzztouch root folder so that it's mywebsite.com/BT-server/score.php. Then I opened the quiz scoreboard url file and added the ending to the url for my score.php file, but I don't know exactly where to insert it. Sorry, I'm new to this!

Hi, About the version info: Everything is ok and every one is using the correct version. I problably forgot to update the file that looks for the update. So don't worry about it. If there will ever be an updated version I'll update that info For the score.php Please read that file. It tells you that you have to create a database. So please do and it will work out fine. @fusionsch: Sorry but I can't produce the same result ans thus have no answer. Best Regards, Danny
