Hi,
 I have edited the mad blanks to be able to hold 50 questions instead of 25. However when I edit mbDefaultRecordsPerPage and fill in the value 30 it does not seem to have any effect. It still shows the whole 50 questions in one page.

Any idea what may I have done wrong? Or do i have to change in one of the .php madblanks configuration file?

Thanks very much.

cheers,
Kelly

The mbDefaultRecordsPerPage setting refers to the pulldown menu labeled Display # at the bottom of a page such as the one linked here. That setting doesn't affect the number of questions on the screen when giving quizzes/surveys with the Create Single Record module. (It sounds to me like that's what you want to change. Please correct me if I am wrong.)

You can ask one question at a time by using Single field at a time mode for the Create Single Record module parameter labeled Fill in one field at a time and submit repeatedly, or fill in a whole record at once?. If you want to use Whole record at once mode except that you have fewer questions on one page when giving a quiz/survey, you can use two categories and daisy chain them. You could also sponsor a change to the code that would allow for what you want to do.
