FAQ

Yes, the Quiz to Flashcard Converter for LearnDash supports combining multiple LearnDash quizzes into a single flashcard set. You can do this directly with its Gutenberg block option, or upgrade to the Flashcard Manager for LearnDash add-on to create dedicated sets for each quiz using shortcodes.

The Flashcard Manager also gives you access to student study lists (User switching plugin is required)— a more precise and meaningful metric than traditional quiz statistics. Unlike quiz scores, which can be inflated by lucky guesses, study lists reflect only the questions a user has truly mastered or still needs to review. This eliminates the “guessing factor” and provides a far more accurate picture of actual knowledge. As a result, the data is more reliable for tracking progress and can significantly enhance tutoring and personalized learning efforts.

The study list allows students to save specific cards they find challenging. Clicking "Add to Study List" saves the card. They can then view their personalized study list to focus on these cards.

Yes, students can mark cards as "correct" or "need_practice". This progress is saved and helps them identify areas of strength and weakness.

LearnDash allows quizzes to share the same questions. When combining multiple quizzes into a flashcard set, shared questions appear only once to avoid duplicate flashcards. This means you may see fewer flashcards than the total number of questions across all selected quizzes.
