CodeBuddy Quiz Cog – No reactions added for correct or wrong answers in quiz channel

[youngcoder45]

The codebuddy_quiz cog automatically posts quiz questions in the quiz channel. Users answer by simply typing a, b, c in the channel. However, the bot does not react to answers with either a correct or incorrect reaction.

Current Behavior:

• Quiz questions are posted automatically in the quiz channel
• Users answer by sending a, b, c
• The bot detects the message but does not add any reaction
• No feedback is given to the user

Expected Behavior:

• When a user sends the correct option, the bot should react with:
  ✅ :white_check_mark:

• When a user sends the wrong option, the bot should react with:
  ❌ :x:

This reaction should be added to the user's message so they immediately know whether their answer was correct.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Wait for a quiz question to appear in the quiz channel
2. Send an answer like a, b, c
3. Observe that the bot does not react with either ❌ or ✅

Expected Logic:
The bot should:

• Listen for messages in the quiz channel
• Check if the message content is a, b, c, or d
• Compare the answer with the stored correct answer
• React to the user's message accordingly

I’d like to work on this issue.

From the description, it seems the bot correctly detects the user's message but currently does not add any reaction based on whether the answer is correct or incorrect.

My plan is to:

• Listen for messages in the quiz channel.

• Validate if the message content is one of the allowed options (a, b, c, d).

• Compare the user's answer with the stored correct answer for the active quiz question.

• Add a reaction to the user's message:

  • ✅ for a correct answer
  • ❌ for an incorrect answer.

I will implement this in the codebuddy_quiz cog, likely inside the message listener (e.g., on_message or equivalent handler), ensuring the reaction is added directly to the user's message.

Please assign this issue to me if no one else is currently working on it.
