| XF 2.3 Add-ons (Free) Quiz System PRO - Gamification, Analytics, Certificate & User Engagement 1.5.6

Hello everyone!We have just released a maintenance update for the Quiz System (v1.5.6) to address a few bugs reported in the previous version and to improve the overall stability of the add-on.

Changelog / What's fixed in 1.5.6:

• Admin CP Edit Fix: Resolved an issue where editing and saving an existing quiz via the Admin CP would incorrectly create a duplicate entry instead of updating the original one.
• Admin CP Category Dropdown: Fixed a bug that caused the Category selection dropdown to appear empty when editing a quiz from the Admin panel.
• XP & Level Synchronization: Unified the XP calculation engine across the entire board. The Global Podium, the Top Users widget, and the Postbit User Levels are now perfectly synchronized and will strictly count points earned from "visible" quizzes only.
• Widget UI Improvements: Fixed a minor visual glitch with the border-radius on the Top Users widget and added full support for the new Dark Glass UI mode.

We highly recommend all users on v1.5.5 to upgrade to this version for a smoother and more consistent experience.

Version 1.5.1 is here!

This is a major stability release. We have combined the core rewrite of 1.5.0 with immediate logic improvements from 1.5.1 to ensure a rock-solid experience for both new users and existing communities.

Changelog & Key Features

1. Notification System: Restored & Optimized
The "New Quiz" alert system is back and better than ever!

• Background Processing: Notifications are now processed via the Job Manager queue. This ensures that creating a quiz is instant—even if you have thousands of followers—without slowing down the page load.
• Follower Alerts: When a user creates a quiz, their followers will now correctly receive an alert.
• Fixed previous SQL errors related to alert delivery.

2. Installation & Routing Fixes

• Fixed "Page Not Found": We resolved a critical issue where fresh installations (clean installs) would result in 404 errors. The routing system now uses a standardized structure, ensuring compatibility with all server environments.

3. Stricter Data Validation
We improved the "Create Quiz" controller to prevent user errors:

• Mandatory Category: It is no longer possible to create a quiz without selecting a category. The system throws a clear error message instead of creating "orphan" quizzes.
• Duplicate Prevention: Added a check to prevent accidental double submissions (e.g., double-clicking save) that resulted in duplicate quizzes.

4. Smarter "Free vs Pro" Logic

• Free Version: Works out-of-the-box without errors. No license key is required to play (includes footer branding).
• PRO Version: Inserting your license key instantly unlocks advanced features (Charts, Certificates, White-labeling, etc.).

5. SEO & Technical Improvements

• Added proper canonical tags to Quiz View templates to prevent duplicate content issues and improve SEO.
• Verified full compatibility with XenForo 2.3.8.
