Set up the recommendations

With the questions in place, decide how the quiz picks its recommendations. There are three ways.

Recommend the most upvoted products

Best for most quizzes.

Recommend Most Upvoted Products

  • Link products or collections to each choice.
  • Add a product block to the results page. It shows the products the answers upvoted most.
  • Sort the recommendations into several slots to show a whole routine.

Score the answers against a variable

Best for personality-type quizzes.

Scoring Quiz

  • Give each choice a variable and a score.
  • Build one results page section per outcome, with fixed recommendations and its own text.
  • Give each section display logic, so it appears on the final score or on the winning variable.
  • For example, show one section when the highest scoring variable is blue, and another when it is red.

Branch the quiz, or hide sections with logic

Best for complex logic and a recommendations matrix.

Recommendations Matrix

  • Branch the quiz so each path ends on its own results page, with fixed recommendations and text.
  • Or build one results page of several sections, and show or hide each with display logic.

Not sure which one

How to set up recommendations has a decision tree for picking one.

With the questions in place, link products to choices so the customer gets recommendations.

  1. Select a choice in the Quiz Builder and open Link Products, Link Collections or Choice Settings.

  2. Link product variants or collections to that choice. Each one is upvoted when a customer picks the choice.

  3. Go to the Results Page tab and edit its content. The number of products shown is set in the Product Block settings.

How do the recommendations get picked? 
The algorithm is an upvoting system.

- You link products to each choice.
- A customer who picks that choice gives every linked product one upvote.
- The results page shows the most upvoted products, in order.
- With no products linked, or all of them excluded, the results page comes out empty.
- Two products on the same number of upvotes are ordered at random.

To sharpen the results further:

- Show only products with a minimum number of upvotes, in the [Results Page settings](/how-to-guides/only-recommend-products-with-minimum-votes/).
- Keep unwanted products out with [Exclusions](/how-to-guides/set-up-funnel-quiz/#exclusion), even when an earlier choice upvoted them.
