If the multichoice question field is set to Full HTML and user is not logged in when taking the quiz, the question appears as "n/a"

If the field is set to Filtered HTML all works OK, and question is displayed

Found it. The bug is in multichoice.module. (There may be similar problems in other question type modules.)

The question is rendered in multichoice_render_question_form at line 591 in the 6.x-2.1. It calls check_markup(), but it's checking the current user's permissions for the input filter, which is why Full HTML causes problems.

The fix is simple (probably easier than applying the patch). Change this:

  $form['question'] = array('#type' => 'markup', '#value' => check_markup($node->body, $node->format));

to this:

  $form['question'] = array('#type' => 'markup', '#value' => check_markup($node->body, $node->format, FALSE));

By adding a third parameter (FALSE), you're telling check_markup not to check whether the current user has permission to access the filter with which the question was created.

We are still experiencing this issue using Drupal 6.22 and Quiz 6.x-4.3. Users who do not have access to "Full HTML" input format are not able to see the Quiz questions. These are Multiple Choice questions.

Same problem here. And with truefalse questions too - suggesting it's a core issue.

I have in the last 2 days updated from an early Quiz 2 through 3 and currently latest 4. Also updated core to latest. Logged out and as a visitor can see the questions, logged in as user 1 can see the questions.

I'm experiencing the same issue on my Drupal 6.22 site after updating to Quiz 6.x-4.3. Is there a fix out there for this yet?
