4.3%

of downloads still active

At least 1K of 23.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,781 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 2 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    I’ve been using the HD Quiz plugin for awhile and wishing that it supported just one more feature–letting me see the results when folks take the quizzes. And yesterday I noticed that this plugin lets me do that. And it does it very nicely! It even lets me export to cvs files for further analysis, should I care to do so. In one way it works a little too well for it gives the user IDs with the results and I’d be happy with anonymous results. In another way I’m slightly disappointed as it doesn’t show me the questions that they got wrong; for that I would have to pay for the pro version. Perhaps I might do that if I ever start making more than very occasional quizzes, but for now I’m happy with the basic version.

    Great light weight plugin. Well supported both in update frequency and replies. Developer is friendly and swift. I love the checkbox “Only save results for logged in users” which can be toggled. And the cherry on top is the “Export as CVS” button that works beautifully and displays well with Quattro (Excel alternative). This plugin comes highly recommended! 🙂

    It is a basic plugin. Lets you know when and which quiz was taken with result of each quiz.But… It works and let you export results as csv. That’s all, to start and figure out what is the use of your quizzes it is ok. No error, as of now, so it is ok.

    SO basic limited feature but better than nothing. The paid pro version offers more features but so pricey compared to the services it includes and the other competitives features. I wish at least the free version gets updated regularly.
