[nodebb-plugin-ns-awards] NS Awards, Give Medals!

[ricoud]

@Nicolas Thanks a lot. It works nicely

[MJ]

How to display awards on profile page?

[Nicolas]

@MJ you have to inject template for this: https://github.com/NicolasSiver/nodebb-plugin-ns-awards#profile-template
It means, you have to mess with your theme.

okay thank you, I'm not good at it now. I will learn more about it, and if I'm good enough I will try and mess with my theme

thanks

@Nicolas
Please consider adding the ability to show all users assigned to a particular award in the ACP.

Thank you.

Any idea how I could automatically give users awards when they complete certain things? Like 100 posts or being a member for a year. I know nodebb has rewards that does this but I want it to be with badges on the profile instead of adding to groups.

@SatoshiCamp +1

[Nicolas]

@SatoshiCamp there is no such functionality. There is such TODO item, to create achievements in future releases.

[Gaurav Grv Robinson]

@Nicolas I think I am asking too much but is there an ETA for your TODO list ?

[Nicolas]

I don't have any ETA

[Gaurav Grv Robinson]

@Nicolas Will some coffee/beer boost you up for further development ?

[Nicolas]

No, I don't think it could help
I do small chunks of work on every plugin, one by one.
I can say, that currently I'm updating Custom Fields plugin, and I'm very close to final stage of another major release for it. Next plugin could be Awards or Points, it depends how Github sort them for me by popularity

[Gaurav Grv Robinson]

@Nicolas That's sad. I really needed the TO DO features of your points and awards plugins, I guess I'll have to hire another dev for the job.

@Nicolas Is this plugin going to be updated soon? It's great, though it would be a lot easier to use if you didn't have to edit templates.

[Nicolas]

@torn2 no plans for the update

[torn2]

@Nicolas Ahhh that sucks, the to do list seems like a great update!

[TimP4w]

Well since it seems that you don't have enough time to update it, I tried to achieve the automatic reward system.
But since I'm new with those kind of stuff (javascript, nodejs, nodeBB, mongoDB, et cetera) I don't know if what I did is correct, because I'm still thinking in terms of PHP and MySQL.

If someone wants to have a look this is my fork: https://github.com/TimP4w/nodebb-plugin-ns-awards
For now it "works" but of course it's not production ready.

[torn2]

@TimP4w Any more updates on this?

[Nicolas]

@TimP4w I didn't prioritize any NodeBB development several last months. I have checked your PR at weekends, It's a definitely looks different. I thought about Achievement system in different way.

Would be great to know, how many users would like to see an achievement system (system where you define an achievement with a set of rules, and if those rules are fulfilled - user will receive an award).
