Online Testing Addon allows you to paste any quizzes through the shortcode to any page.

### Benefits of Online Testing Addon

* **Flexibility** – Quizzes can be embedded on **any page**, enhancing user accessibility and experience. This allows seamless integration of assessments into course content, promotional pages, or informative sections.
* **Engagement** – Embedding quizzes directly within content increases interaction and user engagement. It encourages prospective students to participate actively, making the learning process more dynamic and appealing.
* **Privacy** – Test results are private and **accessible only to students**, fostering a secure environment for self-evaluation. This builds trust among users who prefer to assess their skills without external judgment.
* **Self-Assessment** – Students can independently evaluate their knowledge and skills through one-time quizzes. It provides valuable feedback without pressure, helping learners identify areas for improvement on their own.
* **Conversion** – Quizzes help potential students assess their readiness for courses, aiding in their decision-making process. This can lead to higher enrollment rates as users feel more confident about their choices.

## How to use it?

You can enable the Online Testing addon in the **MasterStudy LMS > LMS Settings > Addons** section of the WordPress dashboard menu.

By clicking on the **Gear icon** you will find a shortcode that you need to use to paste a quiz to any page.

Go to the Quizzes page and add a new Quiz (see this article to learn how to create and add quizzes)

{% hint style="info" %}
Create a quiz and insert a shortcode with quiz ID on a page. Shortcode: `[stm_lms_quiz_online id=QUIZ_ID_HERE]`
{% endhint %}

On the Quiz editing page from your right, you can see the **Online Testing** with the ready-to-use shortcode. Just copy the shortcode and paste it to the page.

Alternatively, you can find the shortcode of the quiz in the [**course builder**](/masterstudy-theme-documentation/lms-courses-features/masterstudy-theme-manual-course-builder.md) as well:

Using any page editors (Gutenberg, Elementor, WP Bakery, etc) just paste the copied shortcode to any place:

<figure><img src="/files/dxNjkRtUPEJZ5C8BB10S" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="danger" %} <mark style="color:red;">**IMPORTANT**</mark>

You **can not** use this shortcode inside of your [**lesson content**](/masterstudy-theme-documentation/lms-courses-features/masterstudy-theme-manual-lessons.md), for instance in [**Text Lessons**](/masterstudy-theme-documentation/lms-courses-features/masterstudy-theme-manual-lessons.md#text-lesson)!

***

Instead, you have to create **a separate lesson** with the [**Quiz Lesson Type.** ](/masterstudy-theme-documentation/lms-courses-features/masterstudy-theme-manual-quizzes.md) In that case, you can also view the [**student's answers** ](/masterstudy-theme-documentation/lms-courses-features/masterstudy-theme-manual-quizzes.md#quiz-review)for the quiz as well.
{% endhint %}

On this particular page, there will be a quiz that you can start and finish.

{% hint style="info" %}
Users can pass the quiz that has been embedded with the Online Testing addon **only once.**
{% endhint %}

<figure><img src="/files/AiRo4YyluLchWK7MpMSC" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %}
Please note that Quiz results are connected to the user’s IP address, which is why the result will be the same in different browsers.
