How to Import Quiz Questions from Excel or CSV

VaultLMS lets you build an entire question bank in a spreadsheet and bulk-import it into WordPress in one step — no copy-pasting questions one at a time. This is the fastest way to load hundreds or thousands of practice questions for a test-prep course.

Where to import

In your WordPress admin, go to VaultLMS → Import & Tools and upload your .xlsx or .csv file. VaultLMS reads the header row, shows you a preview with validation (so you can fix any flagged rows before anything is saved), then imports the questions into your bank.

The spreadsheet format

Use one row per question with these columns:

VaultLMS also recognizes common header aliases — for example Answer or Key for Correct, Rationale for Explanation, and Section or Category for Chapter — so an existing bank usually imports with little reformatting.

Tips for a clean import

Next: build a timed mock exam from your imported bank, or see the shortcodes reference to place quizzes on any page.
