- ImprovedAdded compatibility with myCred 2.6.
What it does
Community sites built on UserPro give people profiles, followers and private messages, but there is no built-in reason for users to keep interacting. This add-on brings myCred points into that picture. You can award points when someone follows another user, gains a follower, or sends and receives private messages. You can also set deductions for actions like unfollowing or losing followers, so the points reflect the kind of participation you want to encourage.
The add-on works alongside your existing myCred and UserPro setup, and configuration does not require custom code. Point balances, ranks and badges appear on UserPro profiles, so each person's progress is visible to others in the community. A shortcode lets you place a user's point history on any page, and custom hooks give you control over when points are added or removed. It runs on both single-site and multisite WordPress installations.
Best for
- Community sites built on UserPro profiles
- Social networks that reward following and messaging
- Site owners already running myCred points
