Badges Add-on

Introduction

This add-on allows you to create badges – a visual token of achievement. You can create badges that are awarded automatically as the user gains or loses points, or create manual badges that administrators assign, or both.

 

While ranks are based on a user’s balance, badges are based on a user’s points history, like the number of times a user has gained points from approved comments or based on the total amount a user has spent in your store.

 

You can add on-top of this by creating levels where a user can earn the same badge multiple times based on different requirements.

Installation

Once the add-on is enabled, a new Badges menu becomes available in the myCred menu or under your first point type menu if you have more than one setup. Before creating new badges, you should visit the Settings page of the point type and check your add-on settings. Make sure you save, even if you make no changes.
