Is there a way (without hacking the code) to change INCORRECT answers in the %QUESTIONS_ANSWERS% output to a different color? e.g. If they answered wrong, I’d like that answer (only) to be in red text. Is there some CSS class emitted on the output that can be changed? This would have to reflect in emails also though which are sent to the user.

May 14, 2020 at 1:31 pm #3910[email protected]Participanthere’s what I would do (easiest)…make 2 Q_A customization blocks 1) for a correct answer format, and 2) for an incorrect answer format. We could then apply styling in each separately. The ultimate idea would be to make the Q_A format scripted somehow, but that’s a ton of work (e.g. IF %CORRECT% then…else…).

I checked your requirement, as all the answers have same html tags so it is not possible to do this with the CSS.

KritiJune 1, 2020 at 5:06 pm #4390[email protected]ParticipantThere are ways to do it. I’d actually suggest adding a correct answer and incorrect answer response box for EACH question…this way, users can completely customize each question’s answer in the results (right and wrong answers), independently of each other also.

I will forward this as the feature request to the development team and they will try to implement it in the future updates.
If you need this as the custom requirement, you can contact our developers at https://justhyre.com/get-a-quote/

Check for Available CSS Classes
Many quiz or assessment tools already emit CSS classes that identify correct and incorrect answers. You could inspect the HTML output in a browser to see if there are any classes or IDs applied to incorrect answers. For example, if incorrect answers are wrapped in a class like .incorrect, you could use the following CSS to change the color to red:
.incorrect {
color: red;
}
If these classes exist, they would likely also be reflected in the email templates. You can then apply the same logic for styling them in email by either embedding CSS in the email template or using inline styles. scratch geometry dash
Since emails often have limited support for CSS, you may need to add inline styles to the incorrect answers directly. If the tool allows for some form of conditional logic in the email templates, you could insert something like:
<span style=”color:red;”>Incorrect Answer</span>
Unfortunately, most email clients don’t allow external or embedded stylesheets, so inline styles are the best option for emails.
If the platform you’re using allows you to customize the email template, you can look for a place where it inserts the %QUESTIONS_ANSWERS% variable. You might be able to modify the template to include conditional logic for incorrect answers and wrap them in a span tag with a red inline style. -
