Provide Candidate ID to Question Writer Tracker

Here's another useful tip if you're sending quiz takers to Question Writer Tracker, but have their id and don't want them to enter it a second time.

You can provide their ID in the URL to automatically have the ID embedded in the quiz.

An example:

If your quiz location is
http://www.questionwritertracker.com/quiz/47/H4P9E3K7.html

you can embed the user id like this

http://www.questionwritertracker.com/quiz/47/myuserid/H4P9E3K7.html

The candidate will show up on your reports as 'myuserid'. This technique works with one time use tokens too.

It'll usually be a good idea to launch a new window without an address bar when using this technique so that the user can't change the URL himself.
