    You can delete an answer by clicking the trash can icon on the right.
  • Optionally, you can select categories and keywords associated with the question so you can find it easier at a later time.


    If you don't see your category in the list, click on "More..." this will bring up a list of available categories. Click on the category to select, you can add multiple categories at the same time. Click "Done".

    To add keywords, simply type a keyword in the "New Keyword" field and click "Add". Click on (X) next to the keyword to remove it from the list.

  • Click "Save" to finalize your question creation.

    If you like to create a new question based on the one you just created ( retaining the same question, answers, categories and keywords ), click on "Save & Copy Question" button. This will save your current question and copy the information for you to create a new question without the need of re-typing everything gain.

HotSpot Questions:

Creating HotSpot questions follow similar process as Multiple choice questions, with one exception: adding image with hotspots.

  • Click or drag & drop image on the "Add Hotspot Image" area to upload an image from your computer.
  • Once you successfully uploaded an image, you can click and drag boxes from the top-left corner and arrange them on the image.
  • By Default, you will have 2 hotspots corresponding to the answers below the image.


  • To Add more hotspots, select how many you like to add from the dropdown, click "Add Answer" button and a new hotspot should appear on the image in the top-left corner.

  • You can manipulate the hotspots using the handles (3 blue dots on the hotspot). They can be resized vertically and horizontally. You can move the hotspots by clicking (any ware on the hotspot area) and holding the mouse button while dragging it to a specific place on the image. 

  • Green hotspot indicates a correct answer while red indicates wrong answer. See above (Multiple Choice questions) to see how to set up correct answer.
