AI Summary
A few weeks ago, I found myself in that late-December work slump where everyone’s mentally checked out but still showing up to Zoom calls. Our team needed something to break up the monotony, so I decided to throw together a quick holiday trivia game for the WPForms product and support teams.
Here’s what I expected: losing my entire afternoon to quiz configuration and testing every possible conditional path to make sure nothing broke. My coffee was going to get cold. Multiple times.
Here’s what actually happened: I created a complete, working trivia quiz in about 45 seconds. I wasn’t even done with my coffee.
Our brand new Quiz addon just launched, and that speed isn’t a one-time thing – it’s how quiz building works now.
Introducing the WPForms Quiz addon
If you’ve ever tried building a quiz from scratch, you know the frustration. You start with a simple idea like a personality quiz to guide customers, a graded assessment for students, or a weighted scoring system to qualify leads.
But then you soon find out that creating a working quiz is anything but simple: conditional logic that’s impossible to configure, scoring systems that don’t calculate correctly, personality mapping that you need to plot out manually. One mistake and the whole thing breaks.
We built the Quiz addon because we were tired of watching people choose between two bad options: pay hundreds a year for a standalone tool or spend hours struggling with complicated setup.
The Quiz addon gives you the sophistication of those expensive platforms with all the conditional logic, scoring, and personalization you need, but without the complexity or the cost. Everything lives in your WordPress site with your other forms, and it’s included in all Pro plans and above.
Three quiz types for different goals
Choose from three quiz types to meet your needs:
- Graded quizzes: Perfect for knowledge assessments, training evaluations, or educational content. Mark correct answers, set up grading scales, and show users their results instantly.
- Personality quizzes: Great for lead generation and engagement. Go Buzzfeed-style with “Which coffee drink are you?” or “What’s your design aesthetic?” Or keep it business-focused with “What’s your ideal service package?” or “Which leadership style fits you best?” Map answers to different personality types and deliver personalized recommendations.
- Weighted quizzes: Ideal when you need nuanced scoring. Assign point values to each answer and create conditional outcomes based on score ranges.
Put quizzes to work in your business
Let’s say you run an online skincare store. Customers land on your homepage, get overwhelmed by options, and bounce. So you create a “Find your perfect skincare routine” personality quiz with five quick questions about skin concerns, lifestyle, and budget. Based on their answers, they get a personalized product recommendation that links directly to your shop. They feel understood, you make a sale, and their email goes into your CRM for follow-up.
Or maybe you’re a language tutor who needs to place students in the right level class. Build a graded quiz with vocabulary and grammar questions, and placement happens instantly instead of scheduling assessment calls.
Running a consulting business? Create a weighted quiz that scores prospect readiness based on budget, timeline, and current situation. High scorers get routed to your sales team, lower scorers get nurture emails until they’re ready.
Built to work with your existing tools
When someone completes your quiz, their results go straight into WPForms’ entry management system. View detailed analytics showing how people answered each question, export results to share with your team, and set up automatic notifications so the right people get alerted.
Connect quiz results to your entire workflow. Send high-scoring leads to your CRM. Trigger different email sequences based on personality type. Add quiz takers to specific email lists. Route customer service quizzes to the right department. No separate dashboard to check, no extra export steps.
The results view is pretty awesome, too. You get customizable graphs showing response patterns, filtering by completion status or score range, and export options in whatever format you need (JPEG or PDF). Save custom filters for recurring reports, so if you want to run a monthly analysis of quiz completions above 75%, save that filter and pull it up instantly next time.
Ready to build your first quiz?
I promise setting up your first quiz will be faster than you think. And probably more fun than you expect. Building and taking quizzes became the unexpected highlight of our December. Turns out we have a few team members who still miss the Buzzfeed quiz glory days of 2014.
2026 is already shaping up to be an exciting year for WPForms. We’ve got some features in the pipeline that I can’t wait to share with you. And remember, we get our best ideas from YOU. So make sure to give the Quiz addon a try and let me know what you think of it as well as what you’d love to see next.
Till next time,
Lauren
