Hello,

I was wondering if it was possible to have more than 8 possible answers for a short answer quiz question?

Thanks!

    A short answer question slide has only one answer. What do you mean exactly, maybe if you explain i could give you a workaround, like the one I created for another user in this forum:

    Sure!

    I'm trying to input more than 8 possible answers. What I mean is, when you go to add possible answers with the + button it only lets you input 8. I'm wondering if there is anyway I can input more than 8?

    The purpose of the module is for training, so the individual I am creating the module for has a list of at least 15 different training techniques they would like to include as possible answers/correct answers for one short answer quiz question.

    There's an in-built limit on the number of possible correct answers for these types of quiz questions.

    Your alternative is to forget about doing this with a quiz question slide and just set up a normal slide with a Text Entry Box that allows the user to enter answers and use a Conditional Action to evaluate their answers.  That way you can have potentially dozens of different correct answers to match against.
