WatuPRO 5.8

WatuPRO 5.8 is ready with new features and improvements. Here’s the changelog:

  • Added flashcards question type (a sub-type of multiple-choice questions). Learn more how they work at https://blog.calendarscripts.info/flashcards/
  • Added color & text size settings for flashcard questions.
  • Added variable %%QUIZ_CAT%% to display the test category in certificates.
  • Added optional URL parameters for each of the “Ask user for contact details” fields. They allow you to pass data from a different page in the link to the quiz and pre-fill contact fields.
  • New shortcode watupro-retake lets you display a “Try again” link or button at the final screen of the quiz.
  • New option lets you automatically add a toggle button on answer feedback so the feedback is hidden by default. Will be useful on large quizzes and quizzes with a lot of feedback on questions.
  • You can now restrict a test to selected user accounts by entering user logins or email addresses.
  • [Namaste! LMS Integration] you can restrict access to tests if they are required by lessons until the assigned lessons have been read.
  • Question paginator improvements for mobile devices: a button show / hide will appear accordingly to the screen resolution and the paginator state (for tests with more than 10 questions).
  • Added option to limit how many days after the first attempt the user can re-attempt the quiz. This works for logged in users together with the other re-attempting limits.
  • A new option lets you force RTL display on individual quizzes. This is sometimes needed when the whole site is not RTL or when the default theme cannot properly handle the quiz RTL display.
  • You can now specify which quiz results (grades) will trigger the email to admin similar to how you could do it for emails to quiz taker.
  • Added stats for quizzes taken yesterday, last month, this year and last year to the WatuPRO dashboard widget.
  • Added parameter “placeholder” for the watupro-result shortcode: this is text to display if the result is empty.
  • [Play plugin integration] Loaded modal dialog scripts. You’ll need this if you want to use the new Play feature that opens a modal pop-up if the user earns a badge or level when taking a quiz.
  • [Namaste! LMS Integration] You can now filter quiz results based on course enrollment in Namaste! LMS.
  • As planned, the legacy import/export of questions is removed leaving only the new formats.
  • Added filters for the email contents of email sent when quiz is completed (to allow custom plugins alter the contents).
  • [Intelligence module] New feature for paid test: you can define an increase or decrease of the price for each subsequent quiz attempt (for tests that charge on each attempt) untill a min or max threshold is met.
  • [Intelligence module] The Runtime logic feature has been deprecated. Please use the free Chained Logic addon instead. The feature will not be removed for backward compatibility.
  • [Fixed bug] Stripe options were not saved correctly for paid quizzes.
  • [Fixed bug] Analytics event tracker was causing error on non-Ajax quizzes.
  • [Fixed bug] watupro-result shortcode was not handling properly cases when quiz_id was passed as argument but latest attempt was on a different quiz.

  • [Fixed bug] When changing the word for quiz / quizzes on the Settings page the change was not reflected on the page and caused confusion.
  • [Fixed bug] Personality quizzes should not show correct or incorrect checkmarks on questions.
  • [Fixed bug] Certificate approval emails did not add entry in the email log.
  • [Fixed bug] When a page has required question going back to the previous page should still be allowed.
