    For #1, where are this form being displayed at? Is it something from WordPress Core? or perhaps something provided by the theme/other plugins?

    For #2, is there a link anywhere I could see this at? Assuming the site is either public or at least on a public but not advertised URL.

    Is it just showing a broken image indicator?

    michael @ webdevstudios . com will reach me for any admin account you may want to create for me to utilize temporarily.

    1.0.1 is the latest version we have available. If you’re already on that version, then you’re good there.

    Essentially with this add-on, there are 2 URLs you need to worry about. The “Referral Link” and the “Starting URL”. The “Starting URL” is going to be what is optionally added to your page content or wherever, to send the user elsewhere. The “Referral Link” is what you’re going to use to send the user back to your website. As per the readme file that comes with the plugin, regarding the referral link:

    Put the link on an external or partner web site, in an email message, on a submission or survey confirmation page, at the end of a video, or even in a post or page on any site on your network. The user clicks the link and earns the specified achievement or badge.

    Clicking on that, and returning back to your BadgeOS-powered website should be what triggers the earning. Hope that clears up any confusion as to what’s not quite working right for you, but let me know if it doesn’t, or something with that process isn’t working.

    I don’t believe the attachment part is required to submit with that, and if you need to remove it from being shown, a touch of css would hide it easy enough, or I can find a way to not have it render at all.

    Have you tried any of the steps/debugging ideas previously discussed in this thread? As I recall, it was seeming to be a specific server issue, as I wasn’t able to recreate or at least recreate for long.

    Sounds like the order things are created and earned in play a factor in this type of thing. I’m learning things still 😀

    Also lends credence in the idea that we should look into investing time in some sort of manual trigger to scan all of a user’s active achievements/steps and see if any achievements need to be allocated.

    Sent a note to the right people about the request. For what it’s worth, it was only the 1 extension that wasn’t working quite right, and the rest of them seemed to be fine and usable still. However, I could understand the activity codes part being a cornerstone of the intended setup as well, which would make the rest difficult to keep as well.

    how quickly were they all earned by the test user?

    Does it trigger if you manually award via their user profile in the admin?

    Also, hi from over in Eastern South Dakota.

    The admin-ajax.php url returned what it should when accessed directly. We don’t have an ‘action’ parameter set with our request, and thus it exits pretty quickly with that status of numeral zero.

    However, for whatever reason it’s having, it’s not able to properly process the response when it does have the proper action, and it’s that reason that I don’t know and am not able to effectively get to.

    For my own mental reference, the domain is supposed to be http://uat2.gavirtualschool.org/ and something like http://uat2.gavirtualschool.org/toolnew/ is one of the subsites in the network?

    Trying to determine if we need to amend something so that it more accurately grabs the admin-ajax.php url in multisite.

    From the looks of things, the AJAX request is getting a “500 internal server error” as a response, and thus never able to complete the process.

    Not sure how much further I can debug given the situation for the site and since I believe it was intended to go live soon.

    The FTP stuff was more for trying to further diagnose the activity code issue than anything else, for what it’s worth.

    No, it should be getting checked upon awarding of an achievement. I know we have code that checks for additional achievements when any achievement is earned, and also a trigger for “all of type” if I recall right.

    If they’re not triggering the achievement, then they either haven’t met the requirements quite in the way expected/thought they would, or there is some sort of bug going on. I also know we have some functional parameters in our checking that are based on “time since”, which I’m not completely sure on the logic about, but I haven’t always been a part of the plugin development and planning.

    Do you know if the server has error logging configured already, or could get it conifgured? What’s above isn’t providing enough to really get to the heart of the issue, sadly.

    Don’t believe so, regarding the screenshot. I forgot to remove the Query Monitor plugin as well. Sorry about that part, but I may be back in there and able to use it yet too

    the commenting shouldn’t be affected by the ajax stuff.

    #4, just showing users and their achievements/points thus far? Leaderboard or user widget. Since you have BuddyPress installed, there should be an achievements tab added, if you allow the achievements to be displayed on profiles.

    Trying to make sure I have the details accurate.

    You’re trying to automate some way to provide a person a password so that they can log in somewhere and play the actual game? Likely preferably the password is good for only their account, and not everyone where one person could just share the password with everyone.

    #1 Still not sure why this is happening, to be honest. I was able to recreate it for a moment on my own test install, but it started working as expected soon after. I don’t have enough access to your FTP hosting to get to the file I think issues are stemming from, so I’m kind of at a pass there for the moment. It could also just be a hosting account with lower system resources that are causing the ajax responses to hang and not finish like expected.

    #2 Guest achievements is an odd one and I’ve never fully grasped exactly how it works. That’s not to say it doesn’t work, I just haven’t mastered helping debug it when it appears to not be 😀

    From looking at the code, it’s not going to display anything unless the PHP cookies have detected some that may have been awarded.

    #3 I can’t guarantee that those will work, as we haven’t done any compatibility work for the Comments Evolved plugin. However, I have looked over their code, and it looks like they use the wp_insert_comment hook, which is what we listen to as well, so I believe there’s at least chance that it’ll work still, even with those external sources.

    #4 We do offer a user achievement widget that you could utilize. You’ll want to visit http://www.andreaalbright.com/fitnesstv/wp-admin/admin.php?page=badgeos_sub_help_support to see what’s available, as our shortcode embedder seems to not show up thanks to Avia changing around how the post screen is handled. At least when not in “Default Editor”. Auto messages wouldn’t be the best fit for this task.

    #5 Your shortcode on the page referenced a leaderboard that didn’t exist, so nothing to show. I changed it out for the only one that presently does.

    May need some CSS work on it to get it fitting in that container better though.

    Can you provide the error exactly? I’m not able to recreate the issue myself on a subdirectory based multisite network at the moment.

    I assume you’re also the person who started the GitHub issue of similar nature. https://github.com/opencredit/badgeos/issues/439

    Also, since this is an issue related directly to BadgeOS core, the best place for the support thread would have been at https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/badgeos, in case others were possibly experiencing the same issue. This here is a forum for the Guest achievements addon specifically and only available to those who have made a purchase.

    We won’t worry much about that last part though, at this point.

    1. Not going to be able to do much with this part without an account being available for me to log in and use and investigate things with.

    2. Very likely you’ve updated properly, but we missed updating a value related to plugin updates, causing it to think there’s still an update. Easy fix and I can point you to where to change or I can handle it myself if I get enough access.
