Quiz: How well do you know WooCommerce? 🧠
We've just got back from WordCamp Asia, where we had a fantastic time sponsoring the event and exploring Taipei, Taiwan. You can read all about it in my separate article Sponsorship and community: Our WordCamp Asia 2024.
To attract people to our sponsor booth, we created a fun WooCommerce quiz. 77 people took part and the overall winner won an All Access Pass for all our plugins.
For those of you who didn't manage to attend in person, I have decided to publish the quiz questions and answers here so that you can also enjoy it and test your WooCommerce knowledge.
Write down your answer to each question below, and then calculate your score at the bottom. Good luck!
