How to Create and Publish Your First Shop Quiz: Product Recommendation Quiz

Follow these steps to create your first quiz with the Shop Quiz: Product Recommendation Quiz app. You can also follow our introduction video tutorial.

Step 1: Create a New Quiz

  1. Add new quiz: Go to the app’s dashboard and click + new quiz.
  2. Choose a template: Choose a pre-defined template or start from scratch.
  3. Name your quiz: The name can be edited later.
  4. Redirect to Quiz Builder: After that, you'll be redirected to the Quiz Builder.

Step 2: Manage Questions

In Quiz Builder you'll be able to add questions to your quiz.

  1. Add slides: To add a question, click the + button or hover over an existing question and click the + new question button. Select a question type from the dropdown.
  2. Delete slides: To delete a question, click the .../more options button (three dots) and select Delete/Remove.

Once you have your questions, you'll have to link products to choices to show recommendations to the customer.

  1. Go to Link Products/Collections/Choice Settings tab: In the Quiz Builder, select a choice and go to Link Products/ Link Collections / Choice Settings tab.
  2. Upvote Products: Link product variants or collections to each choice. This determines the product recommendations based on customer responses. In the end, the Results Page will display the products sorted by the number of votes.
  3. Edit the Results Page: Go to the Results Page tab and edit the content. You can change the number of recommended products in the Product Block settings.
How do I get the right recommendations?

Our product recommendation algorithm works like a voting system:

  • Products are linked to each choice
  • When a customer picks a choice, all linked products receive one vote
  • After the customer takes the quiz, the results page will show the most voted products sorted by the number of votes
  • If no products have been linked or all the products have been excluded, the results page will appear empty
  • If there's a draw in the number of votes, the app will randomize the order of products.

If you want to make the results ultra-precise, you can also:

  • Limit the recommendations to only show products that received X votes or more in the Results Page settings.
  • Use Exclusions to make sure that unwanted products are not shown (even if they were upvoted in another choice earlier).

Step 4: Publish & Preview the Quiz

To test the quiz, you'll have to save the changes and preview it.

  1. Publish the changes: Click Publish / Save on the top-right menu. Don't worry, clicking Publish / Save will not automatically add the quiz to your website. It will simply save the changes and allow you to preview the quiz.

  2. Preview the quiz: Click Preview to test the quiz you've created.

    Tip

    You can test the quiz as much as you like as long as you always open a new preview window. These test responses done as admin are automatically removed after 1 hour to not add to your usage quota.
