Within a page or post on your WordPress site, add a Shortcode block. You can search for “Shortcode” to find it quickly.
Once the Shortcode box loads in, paste your Shortcode that you copied from interact.
That’s it, now your quiz is added into your page. Preview and publish at will.
Promote your quiz with an announcement bar or popup (optional)
To draw attention towards your new quiz and maximize quiz takers/lead generation, you can promote your quiz as an announcement bar or popup. Here are the steps to follow.
- Copy your promotions ID from interact
From the “Announcement Bar” option in the interact embed dialogue box, click on “WordPress” and then click “Copy ID”
2. Paste promotions ID into interact quiz builder settings in WordPress
To get there, navigate to “Settings” and then choose “Interact” from your WordPress dashboard.
3. Turn on your announcement bar and/or popup in interact quiz builder and customize settings
You can change the timer delay, colors, and choose which pages the announcement bar and/or popup will appear on. You can also choose to have the announcement bar lead to a link where your quiz is embedded, or you can have people take it in a popup box right on the same page they are on.
