Require users to answer questions when allow_skip = FALSE

[gadenbuie]

As pointed out on RStudio Community, the allow_skip = FALSE option only applies to exercises and does not include questions.

In the learnr documentation, it is clear that by default learners must complete exercises before continuing, and there is the option to disable this globally or by chunk with allow_skip .

By default, it seems as though questions can be skipped. Is there any way to require completing questions before continuing?

Lines 181 to 182 in 6694842

	// if the section has exercises and is not complete, don't skip - put up message
	if (section.exercises.length && !section.completed && !section.allowSkip) {

Requiring users to answer a question when allow_skip = FALSE seems like a reasonable expectation.

I would also find this feature very helpful.

Currently putting a 4 digit number in the question's correct answer message for the students to put in an exercise to achieve the intended effect of limiting progression. But this is tedious for students.

Thanks.
