Define an Unlimited Number of Achievement Types

Use BadgeOS to create an unlimited number of achievement types, and easily define how they relate to one another.

For example, perhaps you want to create an achievement type called “Levels” which are completed when a member of your site completes any five “missions”.  And maybe a Badge is awarded after all Levels are complete. No problem. Create achievement types for Missions and Levels, and then start use the Steps manager to easily indicate what steps are required. Voila. You can name the achievement types anything you like, and can set up the relationships between them with unfettered control.

Use the BadgeStack add-on to BadgeOS to automatically set up Levels, Quests, Quest Badges and Reward Badges, and to populate your new site with sample data you can use to take BadgeOS for a test ride.

Required Steps’ Manager

BadgeOS gives you a simple yet powerful admin interface for defining the “Required Steps” for any badge or achievement. In seconds, you’ve linked together one or more independent triggers, steps or actions into the conditions needed to earn a badge or mark an achievement.

The Required Steps Manager allows you to combine all methods for rewarding and integrate all types of achievements into a single set of rules to determine whether members have completed the stated achievement. BadgeOS is a powerful algorithm creator allowing site managers to develop both simple and highly complex conditions and thresholds to measure achievement and progress.

Shortcodes

BadgeOS shortcodes make it easy to turn any WordPress page into an achievements page.  Use BadgeOS shortcodes to list achievements of any specified type and to define the number you’d like displayed before paginating kicks in.

For example, maybe you created an achievement type called “Milestones” and another one called “Benchmarks”. Use the shortcodes to place the Milestones on an aptly named page, and add the Benchmarks by inserting shortcode to another page.
