Here is what is done:
- Submitting quizzes
- Playing quizzes
- Recording stats for quizzes
- Category view (except passwords)
- Index view
- Statistics view
I feel it's at a stage where it is usable, even if not all of the features are in yet. I still want to add the minor features (passwords for categories, minor options for the admin like playing quizzes once, not letting users play their own quizzes, Cash MOD functionality, etc) and 2 major features (ability to moderate quizzes and the ACP functions) before I release the first Beta.
For those that want to use this Pre-Alpha version, you will need to put this SQL into phpMyAdmin to create some tables and add to the config table: (I know some of my column lengths don't add up, like quiz_date being 16 in one table and 20 in another - I'm aware of this. at some point I will go back and make sure everything matches up
)Don't forget to change phpbb_ to something else if you use another table prefix.INSERT INTO `phpbb_config` (`config_name`, `config_value`, `is_dynamic`) VALUES
('quiz_submit_min', '3', 0),
('quiz_submit_max', '9', 0),
('quiz_submit_max_multiple_choice', '4', 0),
('quiz_save_enabled', '1', 0),
('quiz_show_answers', '1', 0),
('quiz_time_limit_per_question', '15', 0),
('quiz_show_how_many_stats', '5', 0);

In the download, simply copy the files from the directories they are in (in the zip file) to their respective directories on your forum
In this pre-alpha release, no files need to be edited. Obviously this will change at a later date, as the quiz link will need to be added to the header and the table constants to go into constants.php (they are in functions_quiz.php at the moment
) - but if everyone is like me, then there being no file edits for this release should be a good thing In the statistics section I have started to play with classes and objects. I've never used classes within any of my MODs before so it is quite new to me. Over time I might start to make the submit quiz part of the MOD based on objects as well, as I think that could do with some simplifying!
Thanks everyone for persevering with me, I know it has taken a long time. Most of the hard work is done, I feel it is downhill from here
