# Action wizard

> The step-by-step flow you use to complete a challenge

The action wizard is the UI you move through while completing a challenge's actions. It opens as a modal over the current page via Next.js intercepted routes — closing the wizard returns you to where you were, without a full page reload.

## Opening the wizard

Tap **Start** on a challenge detail page or the in-progress card on the community home. The wizard takes over the screen.

## Inside the wizard

* **Progress indicator** — a bar or step dots show how far through the actions you are.
* **Action content** — the current action's prompt, input, and (optionally) rich-text description.
* **Next / Submit** — advances to the next action when you've completed the current one.
* **Skip** — when the challenge allows it, skips the current action (may forfeit that action's reward).
* **Close** — exits the wizard, saves progress.

## Transitions

Transitions between actions are animated (fade / slide) so it's clear an action has been completed.

## Action types inside the wizard

The wizard renders the input appropriate to the current action: a multiple-choice selector, a text field, a file uploader, a YouTube player, an embedded post, or an achievement panel. Each action type's specific behaviours are covered in [Action types](/user-guide/challenges/actions).

## Completion timer

Some actions (like, comment, external-link with wait) include a completion timer — the **Next** button becomes available only after the required wait elapses, preventing instant-click progression.

## Hints and help

When an action is configured with hints, you'll see an optional hint toggle. Tapping it reveals the hint without consuming the action.

## Correct-answer handling

For question actions with enforced correctness, the wizard keeps you on the action until you choose a correct answer. Incorrect answers may show feedback; the behaviour (count attempts, partial credit) is configurable.

## Next challenge suggestion

When you finish the final action, the wizard transitions to the recap screen. If the community has the feature enabled, the recap offers a suggested next challenge — starting it continues the wizard experience on the new challenge.

## Closing mid-way

Closing the wizard saves state: reopening the same challenge resumes where you left off. For repeatable challenges, each start is a fresh attempt.
