10 Settings

Hi there, welcome back to Riddle. You’ve completed all the content for this personality quiz, so let’s now go into some settings to fine-tune how your Riddle works for your use case and your audience. We’ll just dip into a few different settings to give you some examples and ideas.

Let’s go into settings for our Riddle. By default, all these general settings come up. Something that I always like enabling is pagination. This means that at the top you’ll see a bar or a number of pages. I like the bar—it means that as I go through the quiz, the bar progresses and the user can see how far they’ve got to go. So that’s under pagination.

Another thing that can be helpful depending on who your target audience is, is to customize the button text. By default, you have buttons like “Choose,” but perhaps you want it to say “Go.” Or instead of “Start,” you want it to say something like “Let’s find out your best car.” For the first page, it would then show that text. You can customize that really as much as you like.

Let’s now take a look at branding. We always recommend this for any company using Riddle—get rid of the “Made with Riddle” at the bottom, and insert your own logo, slogan, and footer. You can do that by uploading your logo, choosing formatting options, and adding footer text if you like. You can also choose if that should appear only on the first page or on all blocks.

Right, so that’s branding. Let’s briefly mention monetization. This is a feature you can use in any Riddle, including a personality quiz. You can show ads above or below your Riddle, and also insert them into the Riddle itself.

To insert ads inside the Riddle, go into your blocks—say you have a question here, you could add a block and insert an ad, which would be displayed in the Riddle. If you want ads above or below the quiz, go back to settings under monetization and insert them there with your URL and height. If you’re using project ads, feel free to read our help guide. Then enable it and insert the ID for that project. I don’t have any project ads for this demo, but if I did, I could enter the ID and be ready to use it.

Perhaps one final thing we could think about is block results. By default, you have percentages and stats enabled, but you could disable those so users only see percentages—not raw numbers of votes. For example, I press “Go” and now I see what percentage of people voted for that answer. That’s up to you. If you enable that, it can be nice to go back to general settings and turn off auto-advance. That means when users see the percentages, they stay there until they click “Next,” rather than automatically progressing to the next block.

There’s one personality quiz specific setting that we need to look at, and that’s how the winning result is calculated. So in your settings, scroll down to “results.” Here you can see that for every personality result and attribute result (if you’re using attributes), scoring can be calculated in two ways.

Number one, and this is the default, is the total points achieved across all your personalities, i.e., in relation to one another. Option two is the maximum number of points available for each personality in its own right, not compared to others. These are the two ways you can choose from—here and here.

Okay, we’ve looked at some specific personality quiz settings as well as some general Riddle settings. If you have any other questions, then as always, feel free to ask us. I’ll see you in the next step.
