This add-on exists to allow you to directly issue Open Badges from your WordPress site. The add-on works with the BadgeOS plugin exposing achievements earned as Open Badges Assertions. The add-on integrates with the Mozilla Issuer API to allow award badges to be pushed to their Mozilla Backpack.

When setting achievement images in BadgeOS upload these as .png. This is a requirement of the Open Badges assertion specification. Basic instructions to give to users for converting digital badges into Open Badges are in (this commentable Google Doc)[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eJmev3UePB23Ku0JYTlOc73q6ScoJgC0OW5vC8A1Bws/edit].

This plugin was developed using the BadgeOS Boilerplate Add-On by @mhawksey at the Association for Learning Technology for the Open Course in Technology Enhanced Learning (ocTEL). For more information about BadgeOS see the resource below:
