One of the most popular addons of the WordPress Quiz Plugin is the Advanced Flashcards Addon. The addon allows you to create advanced flashcards based on your quizzes questions. If you want to create an educational website and have created educational quizzes, then, this addon would be a perfect solution for you.
Using the Advanced Flashcards addon you can let quiz takers practice the quiz questions before taking them. Each Flashcard has two sides. By clicking on the question, the users can flip the flashcard and see the correct answer to the question. So, they can check whether they know the correct answers to the quiz questions or not.
What is great about the addon is that the users can mark the flashcards as completed with checkboxes. This allows them to specify whether they know the answers to the questions. They can then click the Continue Learning button to view only the flashcards with questions the answers to which they don’t know. Or, they can click on the Restart button and pass the flashcards as many times as they want.
Also, you can enable the Introduction page for the Flashcards and customize it the way you prefer.
*Please note, that the Advanced Flashcards Addon works only with the Premium packages (Business, Developer, and Agency) of the WordPress Quiz Plugin.
