Question

Retake button

  • July 12, 2021

I have developed a small quiz in Captivate 2019, with 4 questions. If the user fails to answer the questions correctly, a retake button will appear, prompting the user to click on it to return to slide 1 (Intro), if however, the user answers the questions correctly, then the retake button will not be shown only the continue button. 

 

Any help would be kindly appreciated.

    The Retake button on the score slide will appear only on a failed attempt on quiz level, which is your second requirement. You need to have at least 2 attempts in Quiz Preferences of course. On Succes, the Retake button will not appear.

    Retake button normally resets all quiz slides and quizzing system variables and navigates to the first quiz slide or the first slide with a scored object. You can override this to use an advanced action On Enter for that first scored slides like this:

     IF cpQuizInfoAttempts is greater than 1

          Jump to slide 1                  first slide of the course

    ELSE

           Continue

     

    Beware: you need to allow Backwards movement (not necessary Back buttons) in the Quiz Preferences, Settings.

    The retake button on the score slide now works; however, when I click on the restart button, it takes me back to slide 1, which is fine, but now the click button in the navigation on slide 1 doesn't seem to work. Does this need to be reset?

     

    Also, you mentioned backwards movement, meaning enabling backwards navigation controls skin editor?

    I was only suggesting to test from SCORM Cloud because I know that their web server is compatible with Captivate's HTML5.  All I was trying to do is nail down whether the issue is indeed with the someting in the module or with the web server settings.

     

    If testing on SCORM Cloud shows the same issue, then the problem is something in the module.  However, if testing from the SCORM Cloud web server works exactly the same as when using Preview in HTML5 in Captivate, then the module is fine and the issue is caused by the web server.  It may be blocking some Captivate functionality from working properly.


    Sure, Rod, you may have understood me wrongly. It was not meant as a critic.

    Problem (as usual) is terminology here. I have insisted on viewing from a webserver, but from the last comment of the OP I see that he only tested locally.  Same with the need to use F11, not one of the other Preview methods. Understanding a question is not easy, but here understanding answers neither. 

    It is a very simple advanced action which I posted.
