Question Usage for LearnDash

Description

Question Usage for LearnDash is a free LearnDash question usage built for store owners who would rather work in one place than two. LearnDash lets you reuse a question across several quizzes — useful, until you edit one and silently change every quiz that uses it. This makes question reuse visible.

The problem it solves

Editing a shared LearnDash question silently rewrites every quiz that uses it, with no warning anywhere in the interface.

What this LearnDash question usage does

• Adds a “Used in” column to the LearnDash Questions list
• Warns when you open a shared question, naming every affected quiz
• Highlights questions used by no quiz at all
• Report screen listing all shared and all unused questions
• Entirely read-only — adds visibility, never modifies your data
• Cached for list-table performance, refreshed automatically on save

Who it is for

• Exam and assessment authors maintaining a question bank
• Course teams where more than one person edits questions
• Anyone who has edited a question and wondered why another quiz changed

Built properly

• Read-only by design — it reports, it does not rewrite your data
• Version-tolerant: checks degrade gracefully instead of breaking on LearnDash updates
• Sits alongside Uncanny Toolkit, WisdmLabs and other LearnDash add-ons without conflict
• Written to WordPress Coding Standards, translation-ready
• No data sent anywhere except the service you connect to

Frequently asked questions

Does this change my questions or quizzes?

No. It is entirely read-only — it reads existing relationships and displays them.

Why does a question show as “Not used”?

No quiz currently references it. That is common for drafts, or for questions left behind after a quiz was rebuilt. Review before deleting — unused does not always mean unwanted.
