I’m just adding a note here to say that we can no longer enable custom badge SQL for sites that are on our Standard or Business hosting plans. You can still create custom badges, but you will need to either grant the badges manually, or grant them via the Discourse API. Details about granting a badge via the API can be found here: [Grant a custom badge through the API](https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-grant-a-custom-badge-through-the-api/103270).
