Live multiplayer quizzes, polls, and trivia inside your own WordPress site.<\/strong> Quizpio brings the fast-paced, PIN-to-join, shared-leaderboard kind of game you've seen at conferences and classrooms to WordPress \u2014 with no third-party service and no external data dependency. Players join from any device by entering a PIN and a nickname.<\/p>\n\n Teachers running classroom warm-ups or end-of-unit reviews. Trainers running team-building sessions. Course creators making lessons interactive. Membership site owners driving engagement. Trivia night hosts at bars and community centers. Event organizers wanting an audience-engagement moment. Anyone who wants a real-time shared-screen game that runs in a browser, on the site they already own.<\/p>\n\n Running a site where more than one person makes quizzes \u2014 a few teachers sharing a school site, or several colleagues each hosting their own sessions? Assign the Quizpio Quiz Author<\/strong> role and each author can create, edit, and host their own quizzes from the dashboard. Authors see only their own sessions, results, and CSV exports, and can delete the sessions they ran; administrators see everything across the site. Nothing to configure beyond assigning the role.<\/p>\n\n Each quiz is its own custom post type with its own URL, so you manage quizzes like Posts or Pages. Inside, you compose questions using the standard Gutenberg editor \u2014 multiple-choice (4 options) or true\/false. Every question has its own time limit and point value, and any question can be switched to a poll<\/strong> \u2014 no points, no correct answer \u2014 for opinion checks and icebreakers mixed right into the game. As you build, the editor checks each question \u2014 prompting you for the question text, a second option, unique options, and a marked correct answer (polls skip that last one) \u2014 so every published quiz is ready to play. Every quiz has a settings panel where you choose:<\/p>\n\n Want the quiz inside an existing post or page instead of at its own URL? Drop in a Quizpio Quiz Embed<\/strong> block, pick a quiz from the dropdown, publish. Same quiz, played at that location. Sessions still belong to the quiz itself, so results from embedded plays roll up to one quiz history.<\/p>\n\n For the host:<\/strong> Open the quiz at its own URL (or the post where you embedded it). Hit Launch Session. Share the PIN. Watch the player list fill up, then hit Start Quiz. A brief \"Get ready!\" countdown brings everyone to the first question at the same moment. Run the quiz with live controls \u2014 start, skip, pause, resume, end \u2014 and a sidebar leaderboard that updates in real time. Wide screens get the leaderboard next to the question; phones stack it below. Each reveal screen shows the correct answer, how many players picked each option, and the standings going into the next question. On a poll question there is no correct answer to reveal \u2014 the screen shows how the room voted, and the summary reports a response rate rather than an accuracy figure.<\/p>\n\n For the player:<\/strong> Visit the quiz page on any device \u2014 phone, tablet, or laptop. Enter the PIN, pick a nickname (or have it prefilled from your WordPress profile if you're logged in), and you're in. You get a color avatar generated deterministically from your nickname, so you have a visual identity that recurs across sessions. Tap your answer when each question appears. Watch your score climb. Poll questions are tagged as polls on your own screen, so you always know when an answer isn't being scored. The leaderboard always shows your own row \u2014 even when you're outside the top \u2014 with a YOU badge so you always know where you stand. Need to step away? Tap Leave; you exit cleanly without breaking the session for everyone else.<\/p>\n\n At the end:<\/strong> A Final Results screen with a top-3 medal-card podium, summary stats, the full standings (if enabled), a per-question accuracy recap, and a \"Held on\" byline showing the date, time, and duration \u2014 for example, \"May 17, 2026 \u00b7 2:30 PM \u00b7 12 min\" \u2014 rendered in each viewer's local timezone via the browser's Intl API. Top-3 finishers get a confetti burst on their own screen, and the host's results screen celebrates too \u2014 all respecting Guests vs. logged-in players:<\/strong> Guest play with just a nickname works by default \u2014 no account creation, no friction. Logged-in WordPress users get a richer experience: their nickname prefills from their profile, a \"My past plays\" button on the join and Final Results screens opens a personal history of every session they've played on this site, and they appear on the Players screen in the WordPress admin, where site owners can see who's been playing across sessions. Both tiers play the same quiz; you choose whether to require accounts via a single setting.<\/p>\n\n On refreshes and reconnects:<\/strong> Players who refresh, lose connection, or close the tab can rejoin and land back in the live session as it currently stands \u2014 same identity and score, and if they'd already answered the question on screen, their answer is still locked in with its result shown. Identity persists in the browser's local storage for up to 6 hours or until that session ends. The host's view survives refresh too.<\/p>\n\n Quizpio is keyboard-navigable throughout, with ARIA roles and live regions so screen readers announce each phase change. The quiz interface carries its own styling and behavior rather than inheriting from the active theme, so it never picks up a theme's fonts or layout quirks and works the same on every site. It renders in your device's native system font, so type looks at home on Mac, Windows, or Android. All motion effects, the confetti included, respect the visitor's reduced-motion preference.<\/p>\n\n A dashboard with stats and an active-session callout with a one-click \"Open host view.\" A Sessions screen with filtering by quiz, pagination, and per-session detail showing the leaderboard plus a per-question breakdown with answer distribution, and an administrator can force-end an abandoned session from that detail page. A CSV export with Nickname, Rank, Score, Question #, Question text, Selected Option, Correct Answer, Correct?, Points, and response-time-in-milliseconds per row \u2014 filename derives from the quiz slug plus session date so downloads stay sortable in a teacher's Downloads folder. For sites with returning players, the Players screen lists registered users with sessions-played, best score, last played, and click-through to a per-user history. Site-wide Settings cover polling interval (responsiveness vs. server load tradeoff), reveal pause duration, and a guest-allow toggle, plus manual data cleanup \u2014 delete sessions by date range, or wipe all session data. Quizpio never deletes anything on its own.<\/p>\n\n GPL v2, open source, and complete on its own. Everything described on this page is part of the free plugin and stays that way \u2014 no feature locks, no nags, and no upsell prompts inside the plugin. Runs on any standard WordPress host \u2014 no Node.js, no WebSocket server, no third-party service required. Translation-ready with a bundled .pot file. Deleting Quizpio removes all of its data \u2014 tables, options, quizzes, and session results \u2014 for a clean uninstall, with a setting to keep everything instead \u2014 quizzes, results, and settings \u2014 if you plan to reinstall later.<\/p>\n\n Quizpio Pro is a separate paid add-on, sold as a yearly licence at https:\/\/quizpio.com\/. It installs alongside this plugin and adds to it; nothing described on this page depends on it.<\/p>\n\n\n From your WordPress dashboard (recommended):<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Or install manually:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Then create your first quiz:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Most WordPress quiz plugins are static<\/em> \u2014 a user opens a page, answers questions in a form, sees their score. Quizpio is live and multiplayer<\/em>: everyone plays at the same time, scores update in real time on a shared leaderboard, and the host runs the session from the same page players see. The mental model is closer to the live-poll tools you've seen at conferences or classrooms than to a typical form-based quiz.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. Assign someone the Quizpio Quiz Author<\/strong> role (in Users \u2192 add or edit a user \u2192 Role) and they can create, edit, and host their own quizzes. Each author sees only the sessions and results from quizzes they host \u2014 administrators see all of them. It's a good fit for a school site shared by several teachers, or any organization where more than one person runs quizzes.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. Players join from any device with a PIN, and the host shares the question screen over your usual video call, so Quizpio works for remote and virtual classes the same way it does in a room together. Students answer on their own phones or laptops while everyone watches the live leaderboard \u2014 nothing extra for them to install, just a browser.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. Live points, the speed bonus, and a shared leaderboard bring game mechanics \u2014 gamification \u2014 to lessons and online courses, turning review and practice into something students want to win. Embed a quiz inside a course or e-learning page with the Quizpio Quiz Embed block, run it live during a session, and the competitive feedback loop does the engagement work.<\/p><\/dd>\nBuilt for classrooms, trainings, and audience engagement<\/h4>\n\n
