Sensei LMS 3.9 is now available for testing. This release delivers an all-new quiz editing experience that uses blocks to manage quizzes right inside the lesson editor:
The quiz block supports the existing question types you’re already familiar with — multiple choice, true/false, gap fill, single line, multi line and file upload — as well as selecting existing questions from the question bank:
Although blocks will be the default quiz editing experience going forward, there are a couple of scenarios in which the legacy meta boxes will continue to be used:
- The block functionality has been intentionally disabled by hooking into
sensei_quiz_enable_block_based_editor. - New question types have been added by hooking into
sensei_question_types.
