How to Use Dynamic Quizzes

Use a key question to create your product pool, and non-key questions to rank recomendations.

Dynamic quiz logic is built using priority questions, which are the questions that add or subtract products from the quiz's final recommendations.

Turning on a priority question is as simple as selecting an option, but making sure it works with the quiz you're building can involve a little more than that.

πŸ’‘ What you'll learn


Getting started with a dynamic quiz

Dynamic quizzes work by building a set of product recommendations through answer selections, then displaying matching products at the end of a quiz.

Products are added to individual answers in the Products tab of the quiz editor, where questions can be set to 1 of 3 ranking options:

  • Change rank a little (+1 or -1)

  • Change rank a lot (+10 or -10)

  • Match/Exclude

If questions are only set to rankings, products shown at the end will be the ones with the highest rankings.

If any questions are set to Match/Exclude, quizzes will only show products that match answers selected between Match/Exclude questions.

Match/Exclude rules are enabled

Match/Exclude rules are not enabled

Adding products

You can add products, tags or collections in the Products tab to any answer in a dynamic quiz.

This enables a wide range of quiz building strategies. Here are some ideas to start with!

  • Use one kind of ranking only (+1/-1 or +10/-10) to score the best products to show at the end.
    ​

  • Use Match/Exclude with large collections or tags to filter recommendations to matching products only.
    ​

  • Use +10/-10 for hero products and +1/-1 for secondary products.

The fallback results page

The fallback results page is a backup results page that will display if there are no matches between Match/Exclude questions, or if all products selected by customers are out of stock and the option to hide out of stock products is enabled.

Dynamic product settings

Some settings for dynamic product recommendations can be found inside of the dynamic results page. A shortcut to these settings can also be found in the products tab.

Here is an overview of all the available settings:

  • Max number of products: The maximum number of products that customers will see on this product block. Customers may see fewer products than this depending on how many products are in the quiz and how the ranking or match/exclude questions were set up, as well as the customer's answers.

  • Minimum ranking threshold: The minimum ranking score for a product to be recommended in this block. In the example screenshot, only products that have a ranking score of 2 or higher will be recommended.

  • Sort by: You can choose how the recommended products are sorted in the block. The options are Best selling, product title A-Z, product title Z-A, Highest price, Lowest price, Newest, and Oldest.

  • Group product variants in a dropdown menu: By checking this, the variants will be all displayed inside their parent product in a dropdown list format. If this is unchecked, the variants will be displayed as separate products.

  • Products that can be recommended: You can add which products can be recommended in this block. If no products are added here, the displayed products will be recommended based only on the answers. If you add products here, only the products in this list can be recommended, provided they also match the customer's answers and the ranking or match/exclude requirements set up by you.
