A quiz can look finished and still report the wrong completion status. The best Storyline quiz settings are the ones that align the learner experience, passing requirement, and LMS reporting before you publish.
Start With The Results Slide
Insert a Results slide after your scored questions. Select the Results slide, open Results Slide Properties, and include only the questions that should count toward completion. This matters when you have knowledge checks that provide feedback but should not affect the final score.
Set the passing score to match your requirement. For example, if learners must answer eight of 10 questions correctly, enter 80%. Do not assume the default score is correct. A Results slide can calculate points, percentages, or both, depending on how your questions are configured.
Configure Attempts And Failure Behavior
Open the Results slide properties and set Attempts based on your policy. One attempt is appropriate when the LMS must record a single assessment result. Multiple attempts work better when learners need an immediate chance to correct mistakes before completion is reported.
For a retry, add a Retry Quiz button to the Failure layer. Verify that the button uses the trigger Reset results and then jumps to the first question. Without resetting results, Storyline may retain the prior attempt data.
Set Feedback For The Right Moment
Open each question and choose Form View. Use the Feedback area to determine whether learners see feedback by answer choice or only after submitting the question. Immediate feedback supports practice quizzes. For a scored test, limit feedback until the Results slide so learners cannot use answer-specific feedback to work through the assessment.
If you allow retries, decide whether learners can review answers before trying again. Review can be useful for remediation, but it may undermine a formal assessment. Your setting depends on whether the quiz is practice or a recorded evaluation.
Choose LMS Tracking Carefully
When publishing for LMS, select Tracking and choose Track using quiz result. Then select the Results slide you configured. Set the reporting status to Passed/Incomplete when a passing score is required. Choose Complete/Incomplete only when viewing the content, rather than passing the quiz, is the completion requirement.
Use Passed/Incomplete for a compliance assessment. Use Complete/Incomplete for a knowledge check that should not prevent learners from finishing.
Test The Best Storyline Quiz Settings
Publish to Review 360 or your LMS test environment and complete two runs: one passing attempt and one failing attempt. Confirm the score, status, retry behavior, and review behavior in the LMS record. A two-minute test before deployment prevents the far more expensive problem of correcting incomplete or inaccurate learner records later.
