What it does
Online courses often struggle to keep learners moving from one lesson to the next. This add-on gives you a way to reward progress with myCRED points. You decide which student actions earn or lose points, such as enrolling in a course, completing a lesson, finishing a quiz, passing a quiz or submitting an assignment. Points accumulate over time, and you can tie them to ranks and badges so learners see a clear record of their progress.
The plugin requires LearnPress and works alongside its core features and other add-ons, along with the wider myCRED ecosystem. Settings live in the LearnPress admin dashboard and need no coding. Earned points, badges and ranks appear on LearnPress student profiles. You can create multiple custom point types for different courses or subjects, and reward forum participation through bbPress or assignment submissions through the Assignments Add-on.
