The “Guest Achievements” add-on is a companion plugin that allows users who are not yet logged into your site to earn achievements triggered by BadgeOS and the Activity Codes/Referring Links add-ons once they do log in. With the add-on, users will be awarded any achievements earned as guests upon logging in or joining your site. Until they log in, the earned achievement will be displayed to them in the “BadgeOS Earned Achievements” widget (if active), with a teaser prompt to log in or join the site to claim the recently earned achievements.
