I deactivated the plugin and deleted the files... for both BadgeOS and BadgeOS Stack... reinstalled and old data was in there... need a way to completely clean out garbage data.

Going off of issue #14, how can I send you a Turkish translation file? What is an example?

Hi, I have installed the plugin BadgeOS and the add-on BadgeStack and I have noticed that when I earn an achievements, one of the defaults from BadgeStack, I can't see it on my Credly account. I think this happen because I'm the admin of the wordpress site where I have the plugin and maybe you can't see the achievements from BadgeOS if you are the one who give these. Is it possible?
By the way if I create another user on the wordpress site, linked to an account on Credly, when this user earn an achievements this is visible on credly but it isn't the one he has earned. Using the default achievements from BadgeStack I've (with the other account) earn one of them (one of those who have the options "Send to Credly when earned" on Yes) but the one that I found in the section "My Credit" was the "Oh Freedom! Online Conference Discussant", conference where I've never been. With another achievements I found on my Credly page the badge of "21st skills".
I don't know if this happen because I've installed the BadgeStack add-on that came out yesterday and it could be in beta version.

Anyone with this problem?

username and password field are pre-filled with my wordpress login details

Using BuddyPress 1.7 and WP 3.5.1, I am trying to test BadgeOS. I set up some simple rules. I've tried a simple log in once badge and a create one group badge. Both seem to be logging the events properly, but the badge is never awarded. The "log in once" badge generated events for unlock_step and unlock_all_step, but unlike other events it didn't specify who did that. I don't know if that's normal behavior or not. Not sure if this is a bug or if I'm just not setting this up right.

If you need any additional info from me, I'm happy to provide it.

My main aim is to use badges to increase site engagement.

I'd love to be able to use Steps that involve bbPress which uses Custom Post Types of Forums, Topics and Replies
Further, I have a testimonials area and, you guessed it, it's a Custom Post Type as well.

Can you please consider implementing CPTs in the very near future - it'll allow a far wider blogging community to engage with the plugin as well, spreading more BadgeOS luvving.

This is probably related to issue #33 however it's causing some angst with members who are unable to gain a view of what they have achieved.

First of all, great work on bringing this plugin out. We are really excited about using it at our school.

We are having a few issues, but I will separate them into separate posts since they are really unrelated issues. I hope that is OK.

The first issue is that I seem to be unable to find a way to revoke a badge if it was given in error. I have attempted to delete the nomination and/or the submission, but that does not seem to remove it. Is there something that I am missing?

Thanks,

I'm using the latest version 1.0.3. Approved nominations are still displaying as pending on the nominations page.

Currently the Earned User Achievements widget loads the featured image of a badge if one exists. If not no image is displayed. We need to update the widget to use the default badge icons if no featured image is set.

The function to use is: badgeos_get_achievement_post_thumbnail()

When attempting to connect to Credly through the BadgeOS menu, wordpress replies with the following error: "Fatal error: Cannot use object of type WP_Error as array in C:\wamp\www\cms\wp-content\plugins\badgeos\includes\admin-settings.php on line 118"

I have disabled all other plugins and changed the theme to stock 2012 and the error remains the same.

Wordpress version 3.5.1
BadgeOS version: 1.0.1

Screenshot:

I can see a real need for certain sites to prompt a bit of lighthearted competition.
And one way can be through the display of a Leaderboard - whether a Page or a widget or both.

Perhaps the features might include:
Widget >> Points Score -- User Name or Profile Name
Page >> Points Score -- User Name or Profile Name -- display of badges (in mini line mode)

Cool to link the User Name to that user's award list to see what awards need to be obtained to overtake them :)

Food for thought anyway

Something that grabs the user achievements and parses out into a list of achievements they've won.

After i am creating a new achievement type and a new item for that achievement i get a 404 error as both the achievement and the item are missing. PAge cannot be found.

Would be swell to be able to hit tab to move to the plural version and so on when creating new ones.

I would like to edit slug for the Achievement types on their creation page. Sometimes, in case of a misspelling the slug stays wrong. I would like to edit the slugs.

I'm just testing out the Wordpress plugin on a low volume personal site and notice some odd behaviour with the at least the widget - http://www.cooney.com.au

You can see from the attachment that multiple Badges as well as Steps are being listed.

[1] I've double checked and I definitely have only specified that the limit and needed steps required for the award of the Badge is one yet it's showing up multiple times
[2] Steps shouldn't be displayed either - in fact, clicking on these Steps URLs also produces a 404
Love the concept - just a little buggy at this point for rolling out on my main relationship blog - can hardly wait though

It would appear that when setting up badges which require multiple steps to achieve, when the badge is deleted, the steps are not.

Scenario is - created several badges with single/multiple steps. Created several badges which are awarded on completion of the prior badges. This means none of the badges - ergo steps - are hidden from the user.

Deleted all achievements to start again.

In users profile I noticed that users where still achieving steps - for items that I'd deleted (i.e. user has published 5 posts). When you click on the 'step' in the users profile, it takes you to the 'step' post).

I see an error at the bottom under required steps(obviously this is a 'step' not an achievement so that may be part of the problem)...

Warning: Could not find direction(s). in /home/'mysite/public_html/'mysite'/wp-content/plugins/badgeos/includes/p2p/p2p-core/query-post.php on line 16

If I then trash the step I can get to a list of the steps posts.

In there I can see 55 'steps' posts - but I have deleted all the achievements??

This presents some issues - not least of which is steps are being issued for achievements that have been deleted - if not hidden these appear in the users profile. If they are hidden I suspect that they are putting extra load on the site which isnt needed?

I am having trouble getting any of the functions to work -

• I can add new achievement types, but cannot view them - it takes me to the home page of the site
• I cannot add images for my own badges - the option to do this has disappeared, although the text tells me I can add the image and the pixel size
• I cannot see a page layout option anywhere

There seem to be a number of other issues as well. I have watched all the tutorial videos before starting.

I can only think that this is conflicting with some other plugins that I am using. Do you know which ones might cause conflicts. I am using a membership plugin (S2Member) and some security and social media plugins, and a page based theme (optimizepress).

I am using pages for the course for which I want to issue badges - one small badge per page completed, and a big badge for completing a group of say 10 pages (and earning 10 small badges).

Any thoughts or suggestions. I am loathe to make changes to the site as it will take a long time to re configure.

Create an achievement type and then create a new achievement and I get the following php error

Notice: Undefined variable: credly_badge in /wp-content/plugins/badgeos/includes/credly.php on line 916

Currently ALL achievements are loaded on the user profile page and then hidden via jQuery. Then you select the achievement type from the dropdown and it displays ALL of the achievements of that type. This could become unwieldy with large numbers of achievements, and is also a major load issue on the user profile page.

I suggest we use Select2 ajax search for this.

I've used a shortcode of [badgeos_achievements_list type=badges limit=10] since the slug for the achievement type is /badges and get nothing showing on my test page here:
http://www.geekandjock.com/badges-awards-achievements

More details: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/any-shortcodes-for-display-of-available-badges

create file download
offer date range to archive.
toggle to remove from db after archiving or not. make sure they want to do that.

skeleton ideas so far.

From the WordPress.org forums, for your consideration.

Hi, me again. So far, so good, now that I got the plugin working and the badges showing up where I want them. I just have one thing I'm looking to achieve. I want to award achievements for 'checking-in', kind of like Get Glue. Basically, I create a badge for a specific post, and if people comment on that post, they get a badge.

I was thinking maybe the setting could work this way, under the 'commented on a post' option, there's an extra box for 'post id'. If the box is empty or 0, the achievement works on every post comment, if a valid id is entered (maybe multiple ids separated by commas?!), then only that posts comments earns badges.

Hello,

I created a badge for users who register for my site and login. I used the required step logged-in to website 1 time setting as the only step and set maximum earning for the badge to 1. However, every time anyone logs in, they earn the badge again.

Is this a bug? I'm using Version 1.0.3 that was just released. Does anyone know of a workaround?

Features:

• Non-admins will only see their submissions
• Admins will see all submissions
• Filters for submission status (all, pending, denied, approved)
• Ajax pagination (like the achievements shortcode)

Parameters:

• Number of submissions to show before pagination
• Status of submissions (all, pending, denied, approved)
• Default status to show (all, pending, denied, approved)

Once issue #33 is fixed, it would be wonderful to be able to include definable text and URL to the List of Potential Awards page on the sidebar widget.

Great to start members off to go get and fulfill the quests/badges/awards

Notice: Undefined index: animation in /wp-content/plugins/badgeos/badgeos.php on line 330

Great plugin! I'm really looking forward to use it in my project, but the lack of internationalization limits what i can do with it (my project is in Russian).

Credly requires a few parameters for it to function and if a user did not follow the steps correctly (like on /admin.php?page=badgeos_sub_credly_integration), than a Credly association may not be created.

Credly's api states that an attachment and title are the bare minimum requirements. We could start by at least stating that in an error, and linking to the Credly integration page.

I hope it's OK to log a bug issue on the 1.1 beta here.

I just tested the Publish Post on my localhost for a scheduled test post.
The badge wasn't awarded once the post went live - is this something that can be looked at?

Looking over things, I don't see that it queries for everything if the default "all" type is used. Is this a forgotten detail?

In efforts to solve the "Invalid post type" issue by starting over, I deactivated and completely uninstalled the plugin...so I thought. When I reinstall the same settings and things that I added are still there. It was like I never uninstalled it at all.

Not sure if the feature is already included in the current build, but it would be nice to have a progress bar beneath the badges to show how close someone is to achieving it.

Line 272:
$expires_in = ( is_numeric( $fields['credly_expiration'] ) ? (int) $fields['credly_expiration'] * 3600 : 0 );

this line needs to be fixed and changed to 86400 instead of 3600

Currently when BadgeOS is deleted from the server all settings are left in WordPress. We should create a uninstall.php script to remove the settings.

A bigger question is what should we do with the CPT entries if the plugin is deleted?

I installed BadgeOS yesterday and was following the walkthrough video step by step exactly as demonstrated. However, when clicking on both the Tasks or Challenges I just created, I get a Page Not Found.

This just a suggestion but I was slightly confused when I first tried to use this plugin because I didn't understand the hierarchy. This is what I suggest for the left side menu once BadgeOS is installed:

Badges (?)
Achievement Types (?)
Actions (?)
• Submissions
• Nominations
• Log Entries
Settings (?)

Since the whole purpose of the plugin is to award badges it should have it's own section away from Achievements. Badges shouldn't even look like an achievement in the settings. The Achievement data component should say "Badge Data". Required Steps should say "Link to" and it should only have the bottom 3 Achievement type options.

Achieving Types should start off empty and not look like badges. This should only have the Required Steps component in it and In that component you can keep all of the 5 requirements and add the Actions sections.

The Actions section will be an option in the Achievement type. This should be the only section with submenus

The question marks next to each section should lead to the support website for more information.

Settings should have the Credly, Add-Ons, Help/Support in it.

Features:

• Non-admins will only see their nominations
• Admins will see all nominations
• Filters for nomination status (all, pending, denied, approved)
• Ajax pagination (like the achievements shortcode)

Parameters:

• Number of nominations to show before pagination
• Status of nominations (all, pending, denied, approved)
• Default status to show (all, pending, denied, approved)

Noticed people on the forum having issues with badges across a network. Figured it'd be good to have at least a checkbox option in the widget to query against all sites, if not separate widgets for the same thing.

Can you add a feature to badgeos plugin for Wordpress, in which the user sees a fancy progressbar for a level, quest or badge to complete.

For example: for a quest you need 3 assignments to finish. Backend, the admin decides one big assignment is 50% of the whole quest. The other two short assignments are both 25%. Than, frontend, the user finished one short assignment and therefore he sees a nice progressbar with a 25% done status in order to complete the quest.

Fancy progress bars can look like:
http://psdblast.com/9-different-shaped-progress-bar-psd-loading-icon

This feature would be a fantastic option for the plugin. :)

I installed BadgeStack today and checked to see that the badge pages were created correctly, which they were. However, the formatting is strange. The name/icon of the creator overlaps the title, and the description runs behind my sidebar. Attached image. Any suggestions on a fix?

I'd like to be able to assign categories to individual achievements in an achievement type and also have the ability to display just those badges based on these categories.

Our achievement types symbolize certain levels of achievement but we have multiple departments that assign these achievements. As we expand the number of badges we offer, we'd like the ability to display them by department.

Thanks,

Arturo

If you deactivate and reactivate the plugin, the Credly settings are reset back to the defaults. If the settings have been set, meaning the plugin has been configured already, we shouldn't reset back to defaults.

Hey guys, I'm using this plugin to gameify a client site using WP 3.5.1 and BuddyPress 1.7.2. I've added the widget to the sidebar for users to be able to see their earned badges. Unfortunately, it just displays a blank widgets for both users that have just registered and users that aren't logged in. It would be nice to have a little text for non-logged in users. Something like "Log in to view your earned badges" for users that aren't logged in, and "Go to [link] to start earning badges" for users that are logged in but haven't yet earned any badges.

Thanks!

I created a Task, then when into Tasks and decided to add new. I then changed my mind in when away to another section in the Admin menu without adding or saving anything. Now when I try to come back to anything in BadgeOS it says "Invalid post type" and it shows this at the top of the browser "http://[mysite.com]/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type="

I know that you are promoting Credly but I think you should setup a short code for users to see what badges they have earned.

An example would be that when a user logs into their account there will be a short code to display what badges they have earned.

[badgeos_achievements_user]

If they have earned multiple badges...
[badgeos_achievements_user displaybadge=0]

displaybadge = 0 means all
displaybadge = 1 is the most recent earned
displaybadge = 2 display the most recent two, etc...

Displaying points earned
displaypoints=Y
