@baris Ok thanks, I will take a closer look. Could you show me a quick screenshot of what it looks like when the leaderboard succesfully loads? And where would I find the template file in the leaderboard plugin/greater nodeBB app for what should be loading the html for the leaderboard? Thank you!

@jarey thanks for pointing out that plugin. I had misinterpreted it's functionality before. When I saw "Max upvote weigh (points)" I assumed you could only use that configuration to scale the upvote-to-reputation ratio based on the reputation of the user doing the voting. For others that run into a similar issue. Using the plugin Jarey pointed out, if you'd like to make 1 upvote = 10 reputation I was able to do that by setting: Max upvote weigh (points) = 9 Since the default weight is 1 upvote = 1 reputation, and this plug in then adds the additional 9 reputation.
