QSM Fortune theme is perfect for getting feedback and reviews on your website. The Fortune theme can be installed on sites with QSM Core v8.0.7 or higher.
With multiple types of supported question styles, the ability to add a featured image to each quiz page, unique design elements, etc this quiz theme compels the responders to take immediate action.
Using Horizontal Question Types
Fortune theme is designed to display Horizontal Multiple Choice & Multiple Response Questions types in a much better way. The answer values are displayed beautifully inside the buttons and their corresponding labels just below each button, making your feedback forms look appealing.
Just select Multiple Choice (Horizontal) or Multiple Response (Horizontal) from the Question Type dropdown. Now, add your question, answers, and labels. Points/Correct/Incorrect will be displayed based on the selected grading system that can be changed from the options tab.
Setting up the Progress Bar
We did something unique with the Fortune theme’s progress bar, unlike the usual progress bar Fortune’s progress bar is far more interactive and pleasing. Based on the number of pages you have in your form the progress bar guides you through the progress you’ve done by depicting the current page number out of the total pages.
The progress bar will be enabled by default, but if it’s still not visible you can enable it from Options Tab > Display > Show progress bar and enable the “Show current page number” option too.
Adding Featured Images
QSM’s Fortune theme by default allows you to add 2 types of featured images
- Global Feature Image – Seen at the beginning of the quiz & is displayed at the very beginning of the quiz in the front end. If you skipped adding a featured image at the initial quiz configuration you can still add it from Style Tab > Featured Image > Set Featured Image.
- Page Level (Theme-Specific) – With the Fortune theme, you can even add individual featured images on all quiz pages, a feature that’s unique to the fortune theme. To add featured images to each quiz page just click the gear icon of the quiz page > ” Select page feature image?” and then set the image. Page Level Featured images will go to the right side of the quiz on the front end.
Effects of Manual Pagination vs Auto Pagination on Featured Images
In QSM auto-pagination (questions per page) is set to 1 and is enabled by default. We recommend you go for Manual Pagination and set the “questions per page” option to 0 by going to Options Tab > Display.
If Auto-pagination is Active, Global Featured Image will be seen only on the first quiz page, however, if you go for manual pagination and set the questions per page to “0”, the global featured image will show on those quiz pages that are missing “Page Level” featured images.
So, it’s recommended to set the Global Featured Image first and then if required set the Page Level Featured Image on your quiz.

You can customize the Fortune theme by navigating to Style Tab > Themes > Fortune > Customize Quiz Theme.
