Features in Shika 1.3.34

Hide/show the 'Print' button for quiz on the answer sheet 

With Shika 1.3.34, site administrators can choose whether to allow printing the answer sheet for quiz for course users.

Verdana font in drag and drop HTML builder

We have added the Verdana font in drag and drop HTML Builder for ‘Text&Media’ lesson type.

Integration plugin for adding course-specific EasySocial points during course creation 

In the earlier releases, we had a configuration to add EasySocial points for all courses on a global level. With this release, site administrators can set different EasySocial points for different courses. If the administrator doesn’t set the points at the course level then the users are assigned the global level EasySocial points that are set by the administrator.

Autoplay configuration in YouTube plugin

If the autoplay video configuration in YouTube plugin is enabled, the YouTube video is autoplayed and set to mute by default for lesson. If it’s disabled then the user needs to play the YouTube video in the lesson.

Email for site administrator when user exhausts the attempts and fails to pass the lesson

Site administrators are notified via email when the user exhausts the allowed attempts and fails to pass the lesson.

Summary of quiz taken on thank you page

With Shika 1.3.34, we have created a new plugin for displaying the quiz summary on the thank you page. Users can thus identify the areas of improvement based upon the feedback for the respective quiz section or question category.

Enable/disable "correct answers" on the review answer sheet page

Site administrators can configure whether the correct answers are to be shown to the user for the quiz on the review answer sheet page.
