Quiz navigation with flashcards

Adding flashcards to a quiz changes how navigation works. Here is what you need to know.

How flashcard navigation differs from standard blocks

ActionStandard blockFlashcard block
AnsweringSelect an answer and submitClick Learnt or Not learnt, then marked as Done or click Next
NextGoes to the next block in orderGoes to the next unanswered flashcard first, then continues in order
BackReturns to the previous block (re-voting not possible)Returns to the previous flashcard (re-voting is possible)
Play againShows unanswered questions first, then starts from the beginningShows only unanswered flashcards until all are finished
Reset flashcards-Restarts the entire quiz

Key behaviors

  • After clicking Learnt or Not learnt, your audience is taken to the next unanswered flashcard. Once all flashcards are answered, navigation continues with the next block in order.
  • On flashcard blocks, the Back button allows re-voting. On standard blocks, it does not.
  • The Play again button shows only unanswered flashcards until your audience has finished all of them.

Remember user setting

  • OFF: Progress is lost on page reload. Your audience starts fresh each time.
  • ON (permission required): Your audience is asked for consent on the first flashcard or form. If they agree, progress is saved.
  • ON (permission not required): Progress is saved automatically. On page reload, your audience is taken to their next unanswered question.

Timer behavior

When a Riddle timer expires, the current learnt/not-learnt status is preserved. Your audience is redirected to the first block and can continue from there.

Please note: Forms that were automatically submitted during the quiz will not be re-submitted when navigating back, but they are displayed as answered and disabled.
