All the quizzes I've added are related to health & medicine but I'm now being asked about having other categories of interest so what's the possibility of having the facility to divide these into separate folders/boards instead of just one long list.

cheers

Since I stopped doing things manually & installed the quiz mod the popularity of the quizzes have gone through the roof & probably because I now include them on any subject which makes my most wanted improvement now; the facility to divide the listings into category/subject folders.

I just wish I had time to learn Pearl so I could contribute instead of just feeding you all suggestions.

cheers for all you do!!

Nevermind.  I have the menuitems mod, and never thought to deactivate it and see if it was in the menu...and it is.  AWESOME Work!!

Having just studied bits of perl yesterday & today I've realised one or two things, firstly I think I tracked down the sort by 'date posted' routine....

elsif($sortmode eq "date") {@sortlist = map {$_->[0]} sort{($a->[11])<=>($b->[11]) || uc($a->[2]) cmp uc($b->[2])} map { [ $_, (split /\|/)[0..11] ] } (@tmplist);}

If I'm correct in saying: $quiztxt{'11'} = "Posted"; i.e. the date posted

and [0..11] is the part that sorts by month.

I've now realised the routine does sort correctly by month but then sorts by quiz name, therefore, the dates within a month are all mixed-up.

The bit I don't understand is what's the use of the [2] here?

$quiztxt{'2'} =  "Add a new Quiz";
$quiztxt{'7'} = "Quiz Name";

so where is the routine sorting by quiz name. The full routine seems to be:

     # Sort quizlist

     $sortmode = $INFO{'sort'};

     $sortorder = $INFO{'order'};



     if($sortmode eq "name") {@sortlist = map {$_->[0]} sort{uc($a->[2]) cmp uc($b->[2])} map { [ $_, (split /\|/)[0..2] ] } (@tmplist);}

     elsif($sortmode eq "creator") {@sortlist = map {$_->[0]} sort{($b->[4])cmp($a->[4]) || uc($a->[2]) cmp uc($b->[2])} map { [ $_, (split /\|/)[0..4] ] } (@tmplist);}

     elsif($sortmode eq "difficulty") {@sortlist = map {$_->[0]} sort{($b->[9])<=>($a->[9]) || uc($a->[2]) cmp uc($b->[2])} map { [ $_, (split /\|/)[0..9] ] } (@tmplist);}

     elsif($sortmode eq "num") {@sortlist = map {$_->[0]} sort{($b->[10])<=>($a->[10]) || uc($a->[2]) cmp uc($b->[2])} map { [ $_, (split /\|/)[0..10] ] } (@tmplist);}

     elsif($sortmode eq "times") {@sortlist = map {$_->[0]} sort{($b->[8])<=>($a->[8]) || uc($a->[2]) cmp uc($b->[2])} map { [ $_, (split /\|/)[0..8] ] } (@tmplist);}

     elsif($sortmode eq "date") {@sortlist = map {$_->[0]} sort{($a->[11])<=>($b->[11]) || uc($a->[2]) cmp uc($b->[2])} map { [ $_, (split /\|/)[0..11] ] } (@tmplist);}

     else {@sortlist = map {$_->[0]} sort{uc($a->[2]) cmp uc($b->[2])} map { [ $_, (split /\|/)[0..2] ] } (@tmplist);}



     if ($INFO{'order'} eq "reverse") {

           @sortlist = reverse @sortlist;

     } else {

           if ($sortmode eq "name") {$order_name = ";order=reverse";}

           elsif ($sortmode eq "creator") {$order_creator = ";order=reverse";}

           elsif ($sortmode eq "difficulty") {$order_difficulty = ";order=reverse";}

           elsif ($sortmode eq "num") {$order_num = ";order=reverse";}

           elsif ($sortmode eq "times") {$order_times = ";order=reverse";}

           elsif ($sortmode eq "date") {$order_date = ";order=reverse";}

     }

     

     if ($sortmode ne "") {$sortmode = ";sort=".$INFO{'sort'};}

     if ($sortorder ne "") {$sortorder = ";order=".$INFO{'order'};}

I've installed the 0.96d version and it works great so far... cool mod!

Its looking in SubList.pl for:
'usersrecentposts',"Profile.pl&usersrecentposts";

It could have been changed by another mod, search for :
Profile.pl&usersrecentposts

and see what is diff from:
'usersrecentposts',"Profile.pl&usersrecentposts";

Back up your Files, Then You can edit the mod to what has changed in your SubList.pl and run the mod again, or do it all by hand.

Does this mod show the latest quiz taken similar to how the board index shows last post?

Nothing new with this mod besides all the bugs fixed ???
