What it does
Many gamified sites hand out rewards automatically, which works for simple actions but not for accomplishments that need a human check. This add-on gives users a way to make their case. They fill out a submission form, pick the reward they want and use an explanation field to say why they have earned it. Administrators then read the request and decide. The result is a reward process that stays transparent for users and keeps admins in control of what gets granted.
On the admin side, a dashboard collects every submission in one place, with dedicated screens for approvals and rejections. Email notifications alert you when new requests arrive, and you can send a test email to check your settings first. Forms can go almost anywhere on your site through shortcodes, Gutenberg blocks or a sidebar widget. The plugin works on single sites and multisite networks, and it requires BuddyPress, which makes it a natural fit for community sites already built on that plugin.
Best for
- BuddyPress community sites using myCred points and badges
- Learning sites that award ranks or levels after review
- Gamified forums where admins verify achievements manually
Features
Reward requests through forms
Users submit custom forms to request ranks, badges, levels or achievements, giving them a clear path to claim rewards they believe they have earned.
Explanation field
Each submission can include the user's reasons for deserving a reward, so administrators have context when deciding whether to approve the request.
Central admin dashboard
Review, approve or reject all user submissions from one place, which keeps moderation and reward handling organized in a single screen.
Approval and rejection screens
Dedicated screens handle the approval workflow, helping administrators manage decisions and keep communication with users clear and consistent.
Email notifications with test sends
Get email alerts when new submissions arrive, and send test emails to confirm your notification settings work correctly before users start submitting.
Shortcodes and Gutenberg blocks
Place submission forms inside posts, pages or other content areas using either a shortcode or a Gutenberg block, depending on how you build pages.

Questions about myCred Submission
What can users request with this plugin?
Users can request ranks, badges, levels or achievements by filling out a submission form. Each form includes an explanation field where they describe why they deserve the reward. An administrator then reviews the request and either approves or rejects it from the admin dashboard.
Does it need any other plugins?
Yes. It requires BuddyPress, and it works with the myCred points management system to handle the rewards. If your site already runs BuddyPress and myCred, this add-on fits into that setup and adds a reviewed request process on top.
Where can I put the submission form on my site?
You can add the form to posts and pages with a shortcode or a Gutenberg block, or place it in your sidebar with the included widget. That gives you several options for making the form easy for users to find.
Will I know when someone submits a request?
Yes. myCred Submission sends email notifications when new submissions come in. You can also send a test email to make sure your notification settings are configured correctly before you open the forms to users.
