Zombify – Viral Post Types

A personality quiz is a series of questions that intends to reveal something about the person who answers them. The personality quiz, unlike a knowledge quiz, has no definite set of right or wrong answers. Instead, the answers that the respondent provides are compiled and analyzed to produce a response that supposedly indicates part of the respondent’s personality and/or characteristics. Example

Trivia is a type of game in which players are asked questions about different topics and they have to get as many correct answers as possible. Besides having the benefit of improving and expanding your knowledge, either general or in more specific areas, this style of game is designed so that the contestants have fun playing, and its main objective is to create discussion and healthy debate among participants. In fact it is not mandatory that Trivia winners have to get a prize and almost everyone is OK with that as their main objective is to have fun and learn at the same time. Trivia questions and answers can be adapted to any audience and can be used in schools and universities to assist in language skills development and to test knowledge and skills levels.

A listicle is an article made of a list, usually with some kind of extra detail to each item. The format, however, is flexible. You could write a listicle which is nothing more than a title, five sub-headings for each list item, and a picture or gif below each. On the other hand, listicles can be used as a framework to make a complicated topic easier to understand. The subject you write about can be literally anything. Even if there isn’t a list which naturally fits a given topic, you can create one by looking at the subject with a certain angle. Example

This type also has an option to create a simple list of products with affiliate links.

A Meme type allows you to add custom resizable text to images. Most commonly, people use the generator to add text captions to established memes. However, they can also upload their own images as templates.

Default meme templates

By default, we provide our set of memes, but you can change or add your own set of memes via the child theme. To add your own set of memes go to wp-content/themes/your active theme and create this path \zombify\assets\images\meme-templates, after that system will show default meme images only from that folder \meme-templates. If you want to save main memes set, just add images from this zip file to that folder.

Please note: titles of the images must consist characters only from the following set:

1. A–Z
2. a–z
3. 0–9
4. _ (underscore)

From Zombify plugin settings you can disable default meme templates. You can find that option in WP admin ▸ Zombify ▸ General.
