Hi
@Supergatto ,
this is truly amazing to hear! I would absolutely love to see you working on this project, and I’d be more than happy to sign up as a beta tester. I would of course also gladly pay for the addon once it’s finished I really value and appreciate high-quality addons like this.
I’d love to suggest a few ideas that I think could make it even more powerful and motivating:
Badge System
Users could earn badges for various actions in the forum.
For example:
- 100 likes received → a heart badge with “100”
- 500 likes received → the badge upgrades from Bronze to Silver
Instead of stacking dozens of separate badges, it would be fantastic to have a
true badge leveling system, where badges evolve (Bronze → Silver → Gold → etc.). This prevents badge clutter and makes progression feel meaningful.
Other badge ideas:
- Giving likes to other users (encourages engagement)
- Writing articles (1, 5, 10, etc.)
- Using your awesome Quiz module
- 10 quizzes played → badge
- 20 quizzes played → Bronze badge
- and so on
The same system could apply to:
- Posts
- Threads
- Reactions
- General activity
Level & XP System
Users should also level up over time.
Example progression:
- Level 1 → “Newbie”
- Level 10 → “Beginner”
- Level 25 → “Bronze Member”
- etc.
It would be fantastic if:
- Level names are fully customizable in the ACP
- Admins can define exactly how many points are required per level
- Level progression can be tied to posts, likes, reactions, quizzes, etc.
For example:
- 10 posts → Level 2
- Custom XP thresholds set manually in the ACP
Achievement Overview Page
A dedicated page where users can:
- See what achievements exist
- See what they need to do to unlock them
- Track their progress toward the next level or badge
A
progress bar (similar to the quiz progress bar in the user profile) would be incredibly motivating and visually rewarding.
Something similar to the ThemeHouse style achievement overview would be amazing — it’s extremely motivating and keeps users engaged long-term.
Here an example from the old add-on fron theme house:
Optional Integrations
It would also be fantastic to prepare compatibility for:
- DragonByte Credits (Coin System)
- Rock, Paper, Scissors plugins
- Other gamification-related addons
This would allow XP, coins, badges, and levels to work together seamlessly.
Overall, I genuinely believe this could become an incredibly engaging and motivating system for communities. I’d love to help test, provide feedback, and support the development in any way I can. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts — this has huge potential!
