Where do I find my quiz ID?

Log in to your PlayQuizNow dashboard at playquiznow.com. Each quiz has a unique join code shown on the quiz settings page. Use this code as the id parameter in the shortcode or block.

Can I embed multiple quizzes on one page?

Yes! Each shortcode or Gutenberg block operates independently. You can add as many quizzes as you like to a single page.

Does the quiz auto-resize?

Yes. The embedded quiz communicates its height via the postMessage API and the iframe adjusts automatically, so there are no scrollbars or awkward spacing.

Does it work with page builders like Elementor?

Yes. You can use the [playquiznow] shortcode inside any page builder's text or shortcode widget. The Gutenberg block works natively in the WordPress block editor.

Can I track quiz completions in Google Analytics?

Yes. If Google Analytics (gtag.js) is loaded on your site, a quiz_complete event is automatically fired when a user finishes a quiz. No extra configuration needed.

What WordPress versions are supported?

The plugin requires WordPress 5.8 or higher and PHP 7.4 or higher. It has been tested up to WordPress 6.9.

Yes, the WordPress plugin is completely free. You just need a PlayQuizNow account to create quizzes. Free and paid plans are available at playquiznow.com/pricing.

Does it affect my site's performance?

No. The plugin only loads a lightweight iframe on pages where you've added a quiz. With lazy loading enabled, the iframe doesn't load until the user scrolls to it.
