Allow Users to Self Grant Badges

[abgeter (Austin)]

Hi there,

I run a site for a “Reading Rush” - a week long reading event where users see how much they can read and have various challenges to complete. If they complete the challenge, they get the badge.

I’m transitioning my forums to Discourse, and I’m trying to figure out if users can self grant badges to themselves, rather than something automatic at a milestone or something manual. We had around 20,000 users last year, and are expecting more this year, so obviously it would be a lot to have to manually approve. I’m also looking for some sort of integration or plugin that might allow this.

Thanks in advance for any help!

You can create badges that are assigned by sql. You could have users who have earned the badge post in a topic or category and create a badge that is awarded for posting there.

ユーザーが特定のバッジ（指定されたもの）を自己付与できたら素晴らしいと思っていました。私たちのサイトは楽しいので、ユーザーは自分で適用できる楽しいバッジを気に入るでしょう。「butt-hurt badge」が現在リクエストされているものです。私が割り当てるものではありませんが、自己付与できるようにしたいです。
