Transcript

This tour shows everything you can do with WB Gamification, the free plugin that keeps members active. You need the free WB Gamification plugin, installed and active. The tour takes about five minutes. There are seven steps. Start in minutes. Show progress. Reward and climb. Come back every day. Compete and thank. Spend your points. Then run and connect it. Members join, look around and drift away, and you cannot tell why. A points and badges game gives them progress to see and a reason to return. Here is all of it, with a video for each part.

Step one. Start in minutes. The setup wizard picks a template, and Points sets what each action pays. Video one shows it. Caps, cooldowns and double points weekends keep rewards fair. That is video three.

Step two. Show progress. A progress page, blocks and a public profile show members how far they have come. Video two. Cards open badges, challenges, kudos and the leaderboard from one place.

Step three. Reward and climb. The Badge Library gives members badges to earn, awarded by rule or by hand. Video four. Tenure badges and share pages make them worth showing off. Video five.

Step four. Come back every day. Streaks, a daily login bonus and a weekly recap email build the habit. Video six. Each member has a current and a longest streak, with grace days for a missed one.

Step five. Compete and thank. Challenges, a community goal and leagues give a deadline. Video seven. Kudos lets members thank each other, submissions reward unseen work, and leaderboards show who leads. Videos eight, nine and eleven.

Step six. Spend your points. A store turns points into rewards, with a second point type and conversions. Video ten. Members see what each reward costs, and which ones are out of stock.

Step seven. Run and connect it. This list holds Levels, Rules, API Keys, Access, Realtime, Integrations, Modules and Appearance. Videos twelve to fifteen. In the Gamification menu, Members, Award Points, Import and Webhooks have their own screens. Analytics shows whether it all works, and Tools keeps it healthy. Video sixteen. That is the whole tour. Start, show progress, reward and climb, come back daily, compete and thank, spend your points, and run and connect it. Everything you can do with WB Gamification, free.
