Sadr started the forum topic Is the approach to bbPress-plugin + BuddyPress integration up for debate? in the group Requests & Feedback: 13 years, 12 months ago

I know the upcoming bbPress plugin is supposed to integrate nicely with BuddyPress, but I’ve no idea exactly how. Could we be let into the planning a little? How exactly will bbPress integrate into BuddyPress in the new setup? Two things are very important to me: Attach any category/tag to group In any group’s settings, the […]

I see, nevermind it then. The competition style achievement could certainly come in handy, though I for one wouldn’t consider it high priority right now.

Oh, that’s too bad. And the implications would be the same for pretty much any timed event?

What about a notification sent to a designated admin after X time?

Sadr posted on the forum topic Temporary achievements in the group Achievements: 13 years, 12 months ago

I don’t get what you mean by deleted. Deleted from where? All I’m talking about is detaching a given achievement from a user. From the point that I’m “rewarded” the RTFM achievement, it would appear in my profile for exactly two weeks from that point on. Once the two weeks are up, the achievement would […]

For my community site I came up with the idea to have a couple of funny achievements designed to lightheartedly point out a common wrongdoing, like: – RTFM – oh snap, you got direct-linked. – LMGTFY – A preemptive search would have made it all better. Thing is, users probably wouldn’t like to have these […]

I could swear I had a twenty lying around here somewhere…

Sadr posted on the forum topic Display in forum in the group Achievements: 14 years ago

Proper means of display in-forum is the only thing stopping me from applying this to our site now. Say, is there any place on the web where I might accidentally drop $20 behind, only to put my mind at ease with my unexpected loss by the comforting thought that a kind and wise developer out […]

Check!

Sadr started the forum topic Smooth upgrade from 2.0.x to 2.1? in the group Achievements: 14 years ago

So it seems next year’s 2.1 version will be taking advantage of custom post types; great!

So riddle me this: If we apply the 2.0.x version to our website, can we expect a problem-free upgrade to the 2.1 when its released?

Sadr posted on the forum topic Nominations in the group Achievements: 14 years ago

Specifically in my case, it’s for the http://jmonkeyengine.org/ community website. Simply put, I see this as the one step up from rating forum posts: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-rate-forum-posts/ I know the goals are a little different, as forum rating is supposed to accentuate top tier posts, while nominations are more about…[Read more]

Sadr posted on the forum topic Why not leave ”points” to CubePoints? in the group Achievements: 14 years ago

Actually, give it a rest. I’ll try communicate with this developer instead for this particular feature:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-profile-progression/

Quite possibly this profile progression plugin could tap into yours. Is there an API of sorts available yet?
Edit: Oh I see, excellent!…[Read more]

Tried it now, same problem.

I think I got the idea from LinkedIn, which has this nice way of explaining to you to what degree you have used the site to your advantage.

Sadr posted on the forum topic Why not leave ”points” to CubePoints? in the group Achievements: 14 years ago

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Alright. I’ve followed your logic and I can see how it can make sense to keep it around without it getting out of scope and in the way of more important features, as was my original fear. In this case, my idea of a “site exploration meter” could apply just […]

Sadr started the forum topic Bug: Global white screen on activate in the group CubePoints Buddypress Integration: 14 years ago

Upon activating the plugin, the screen goes white, and the entire wordpress installation won’t load anything but a white screen any longer until you deactivate the plugin. You can test it here: http://erlendsh.kodingen.com/wordpress/wordpress/wp-admin/ admin / jmonkeyengine I can also give you a temporary password to my Kodingen account if you…[Read more]

Sadr started the forum topic Site exploration meter in the group CubePoints Buddypress Integration: 14 years ago

I’m a big believer in rewarding users for content, but not so much for generic actions. My interest in this plugin lies in its great potential to be an effective “exploration metric” for my users. It’s a great way of seeing to what extent users have explored every feature of my site. Site Exploration Meter This could either […]

I suppose in part it’s due to there being no detailed “what’s it for?” page typed up for this plugin yet, but I really don’t get what points has got to do with this plugin. You played the “competition is good!” card and I wholeheartedly agree, but I think the good type of competition is […]

Sadr started the forum topic Nominations in the group Achievements: 14 years ago

I’d like there to be a simple way to nominate users for any kind of award. Only moderators should be aware of nominations. It wouldn’t have to be any more complex than a simple metric showing how many nominations a user has received for a certain award; no need to make “X nominations = award” […]

Sadr started the forum topic Display in forum in the group Achievements: 14 years ago

I don’t think achievements will be worth much on our site unless users get to strut their stuff in every post they make. Two possible ideas: 1) Update @slaFFik’s avatar plugin to include a display of aquired achievements. 2) Add a small drop-down button below a user’s avatar. When clicked it will unfold and reveal all […]
