📘Adding a Quiz Feature to Boolean, Selection, and Drop‑Down Fields

Overview

Quiz Mode transforms supported fields into interactive knowledge checks. Instead of tracking scores or pass/fail results, Quiz Mode prevents form submission until the correct answer is chosen. This builds reinforcement learning into your forms without the headache of scoring and processing submitted quizzes. 

Users receive feedback once they attempt to submit the form through a customizable error message, helping reinforce understanding before they continue, such as the below:


Supported Field Types

Quiz Mode can be enabled on the following field types:

  • Boolean fields (e.g., Yes/No, True/False)
  • Selection fields
  • Drop‑down fields

Each field type manages correct answers through its Options tab.

Step‑by‑Step Instructions

1. Navigate to the Field

Locate the field you want to include in your quiz.

2. Open the Field Editor

Click Edit on the field to access its configuration settings.

3. Enable Quiz Mode

Under Field Type, select:

  • Regular Field
  • Quiz Mode

Choose Quiz Mode to activate quiz functionality.

Behavior by Field Type:

  • Boolean Fields: Enabling Quiz Mode adds the Options tab.
  • Selection & Drop‑Down Fields: The Options tab already exists.

Configuring Correct Answers

Boolean Fields

Inside the Options tab:

  • Select the correct value (e.g., True or False).
  • Customize the Quiz Error Message to guide users when they select incorrectly.

Selection & Drop‑Down Fields

Inside the Options tab:

  • Use the Correct Answer checkbox to mark one or more correct options.
  • Customize the Quiz Error Message to provide hints or alerts.

User Experience

When Quiz Mode is enabled:

  • Users cannot submit the form until the correct answer is chosen.
  • Incorrect submissions trigger your customized error message for each question that is incorrect.
  • Users can adjust their response and resubmit successfully once corrected.

This guided approach ensures comprehension while completing the form.


Best Practices

  • Keep error messages short and instructional (e.g., “Try again—remember Boolean logic allows only one truth value.”).
  • Avoid revealing the correct answer directly in the error message.

Troubleshooting

  • Users cannot submit the form: Confirm the correct answer is defined in the Options tab.
  • Error message does not appear: Verify that Quiz Mode is enabled (not Regular Field).

Important Notes

  • Quiz Mode does not compute scores or track performance.
  • There is no pass/fail system.
  • The feature is designed solely for assisted learning—providing immediate feedback and ensuring understanding before submission.

👉 Next Step: Try enabling Quiz Mode on a Boolean or drop‑down field in your next form to transform routine inputs into interactive learning checkpoints.
