Overview
The Frontend Quiz Creator allows the Administrators and Instructors to create and edit LearnDash quizzes on the frontend of the website.
Activating Frontend Quiz Creator
- The Frontend Quiz Creator depends on the Frontend Course Creation (FCC) setting.
- Admin can activate/deactivate FCC from WP dashboard → LearnDash LMS → Instructors → Course Creation
Important: In order for the Frontend Course and Quiz Creator to function, your permalink structure must be set to pretty permalinks (i.e anything except plain permalink structure), and you must save the permalink settings again after enabling the Frontend Course Creator.
- In case you already had the Frontend Course Creator settings enabled, you may still have to save your permalinks again after the Frontend Quiz Creator update.
