Result page + unchangeable right answers

Dear all,

I'm putting together a training, and would like to ask for your help.

I have placed 8 questions in my training. Users have an infinite number of attempts, and are also able to skip questions during the training. However, in order to pass the training, users have to have answered all questions correctly.

At the end of the training, there is a results page, which shows how many questions have been answered correctly. Users should then be able to see on this page their results, and should then be able to go back to the training and answer all incorrect or skipped questions, in order to complete the training successfully. The problem is that when users go back to the training from the results page, all their answers have disappeared.

Up to now, the only way that users' right answers are not cleared, is when I hide the results page and change the settings to

1. Quiz Settings: Passing requiered

2. Quiz Pass or Fail: If passing Grade: no action

But I need for users to a) see their results, and b) be able to return to the training again whenever they want to and see the questions with their answers (at least the right ones).

To achieve this, I have tried 3 different ways to allow users to go back to the training from the results page, but unfortunately none of them have worked:

  1. 1.  I tried the button "Retake", but all answers to questions were cleared, even the right ones. I want the user however to be able to see his/her answers to the questions.

  1. 2. I tried the "Continue" button, and inserted a very last page, from where the user was able to navigate back to the training. But the right answers were also cleared.

  1. 3. I tried a static "Widget" button, with which the user can jump back to the course, but again, the right answers were cleared.

Does anyone know how I can keep the results page, without losing all the right answers to the questions?

Many thanks for your help!

Best regards,

Janet

This is simply the way Captivate is designed to work.  If you reattempt the quiz for any reason (using the Retake Quiz button or by relaunching the module from scratch), you start from a clean slate with no score and no answers. 

If you want the quizzing to work differently, you'll need to log an enhancement request explaining the options you are seeking.

Thanks a lot.

When we hide the resultpage, the quiz just works like we want it to. The right answers are frozen.

I read in another post, that it might be possible to create an individual result page with javascript..!?

Do you have any link to a helppage for that issue?

Best regards,

Janet

I do not understand 'when we hide the result page...' because there is no way to Retake the quiz in that case.
