After you've created a Trivia Game, you can revisit Crowdpurr's 100% original Trivia Library of pre-written trivia games to pick and choose more trivia questions to add to your trivia game.

Our Trivia Library is always available to spice up any trivia games you've already created or have written on your own. It's updated weekly with new trivia games on current and trending topics, fan-favorite categories like movies, music, and pop culture, and broad knowledge, general topic trivia games perfect for trivia players who like a mix of trivia questions.

Open the Trivia Library from the Experience Dashboard

After you've created a Trivia Game, you can open the Trivia Library to add new questions from the Experience Dashboard.

Under the first blue Questions tab, click on the Question Tools tab. A pop-up will appear with several buttons. Under the Add section, click on the circle button labeled Trivia Library displayed below:

Question Count

On the lower right-hand corner of the Trivia Library is the Questions Added widget. The Questions Added circle displays how many questions your new Trivia Game currently has. When adding questions to an existing trivia game, you'll then see the Total Questions Added number increase as you continue adding more questions.

When you've reached the maximum number of questions you can add, the Question Count will turn red to indicate that you've reached the maximum Question Limit depending on your current Crowdpurr Premium Plan.

How many questions can I add? Users on the free Basic Plan can add up to 15 questions. Users on any of our Premium Plans can add up to 100 questions. You will reach the maximum Question Limit when the number of questions you've selected plus your trivia game's existing questions equals your plan's Question Limit.

The question list allows you to review and handpick the questions you want to add from the selected trivia game by clicking the green (+) button. It also displays each question's Question Type and indicates whether the question has preloaded Question Media.

For instance, questions with a camera icon next to the Question Type label already have a form of Question Media attached. (i.e. YouTube video, GIF, stock image, etc.)

Selecting Questions To Add

After reviewing a trivia game's questions, you can then click the green (+) next to each question you want to add. Or simply click the green + Add Full Game button to add all of the trivia game's questions.

If you're adding questions to an existing game using the Trivia Library, you can monitor how many questions your game already has by keeping an eye out on the Total Questions Added module located at the bottom-right corner of the Trivia Library.

Total Questions Added section increases as more questions are added.

As you add more questions from the Trivia Library, you'll see the Total Questions Added number will also increase.

Removing Added Questions

When adding questions from the Trivia Library to a game with existing questions, newly added questions will be added right after the Active Question. For instance, if the Active Question selected is Q11, then newly-added questions will be added as Q12, Q13, etc.

You can also view the Questions Added list to see the actual number position where each added question will be inserted within the trivia game.

Shuffling Questions & Answer Options

Your trivia questions will be added to your trivia game in the same order they were selected after the current Active Question; however, you're always welcome to shuffle your questions after creating your Trivia Game.
