Customizing assessments

In the Assessment Editor, edit the details of your Assessment, configure the Language, add Automations, and set up your After Submission settings to create an Assessment that best fits your business needs.

Note:
Your Assessment will adopt the appearance of the Product or Page Template it is added to. For example, if the Primary Color of your Product Page is set to yellow, and you add an Assessment to your Product, the color of your Assessment's button will be shown as yellow when previewing your Product page. If your Assessment is not added to a Page or Product, the Assessment color scheme will default to Kajabi Blue.

  • Edit the Assessment Title.

Note:
Assessments can only be attached to one Course Lesson. Once there, the assessment will take on the same template coloring of that product. If you are not seeing your Assessment appear when attempting to attach your Assessment, you may first need to create a new Assessment or duplicate an existing Assessment to use in a separate Course Lesson.
