In addition, you will be able to configure different messages to share on social networks, according to the result obtained in a personality quiz or by points.

Depending on the results obtained by the participant in the quiz (only for quizzes with points or personality tests), or according to the validation code entered, you will be able to display one message or another.

Go to the 'Final screen' section and enable the option 'Display a customized final screen depending on gamification, quiz results (point or personality tests) or validated coupon', and then click on 'Manage individual final screens'. 'Final screen' section.
