This plugin adds a new “Leaderboards” option to the “BadgeOS” menu. Add as many Leaderboards as you like.

Place Leaderboards anywhere on your site, including in-line on any page or post, using a simple shortcode. Hide or show user avatars or profile links if you have BuddyPress installed and configure other settings, like the number of users to show and the default column to sort by when the leaderboard loads.

A customizable “Leaderboard Widget” lets you choose what Leaderboard to show, and configure multiple display options:

Features:

• Create as many leaderboards as you like using a new Leaderboards menu in BadgeOS.
• Choose the metric by which users should be ranked (points, the number of earned badges, or the number of any other earned achievements types you specify).
• Configure each leaderboard so that is displays points, badges, and/or any other achievement type.
• Add the shortcode provided for each leaderboard to any post or page on your site to instantly show the leaderboard.
• Additional shortcode parameters available include: number of users to display; the default sorting metric; whether to show user avatars and profile links (if BuddyPress enabled).
• Leaderboard Widgets: Choose any leaderboard to display as a widget. Options allow you to choose a title, the number of ranked users to show, the default sort metric to use, and whether to show user avatars and links to user profiles (if BuddyPress enabled).
• Displayed leaderboards can be sorted by clicking the top of any column.
• Leaderboard data updates automatically.
• Refresh the data generating a leaderboard at any time.
• Multiple leaderboards can be displayed in a single page or post.
• Embed your leaderboards anywhere on your site!
• New: LearnDash course based leaderboards
• New: LearnDash group based leaderboards
• New: Option to allow only selected user roles in leaderboards
• New: Option to exclude users from leaderboards
