interestingly, not all questions have this problem. perhaps every 10th or so question IS associated with the quiz in the “quizzes” submenu. I have not noticed a pattern though
Hi poddus,
to my knowledge, there are only two things that could possibly cause this type of issue.
The first is some other plugin or function interfering with taxonomies. You can try the default WordPress debug steps just to eliminate that possibility.
1. Temporarily change themes. It is recommended to change to a default WordPress theme (such as twenty-twenty-one) and then check the quizzes to see if fixed. If the issue is solved, then we know that the issue was caused by your theme.
2. If the above does not help, then disable all plugins EXCEPT HD Quiz and check the quizzes again. You can then re-enable each plugin one-by-one until the issue returns.
The second possibility is that your database is bugged and you have multiple entities sharing the same unique IDs. Basically, every time you create something new (such as a new post, uploading a new image, creating a quiz or question, adding a new page, adding a blog comment etc) WordPress creates a unique ID for that new thing. *Perhaps* your quiz shared the same ID as something else on your site.
A quick way to test would be to create a new quiz, then using the bulk modify questions page, add all of those questions to the new quiz. You can then try editing the questions again and see if they still have this problem. Since you said you used the WordPress importer, I have a feeling that this is your issue.
WordPress SHOULD have automatically created NEW ids for everything, but I suppose this could have failed if there was an error or issue elsewhere on your site that prevented this.
I’m going to mark this as resolved for now since I can’t think of any other possibilities and I’m fairly confident the issue is the shared IDs, but please respond here if you find anything new and I’ll happily open this back up to help you figure this out.
