On a self-hosted install with a default Theme I have installed the Discourse Gamification plugin but can’t see the leader board under the category. Any ideas?  
I also installed Right sidebar block component to see if I can use that component to show it but no luck

Maybe it’s just not enabled? What do you see at `/admin/plugins/discourse-gamification/settings`?

Not enabled:

Can you manually navigate to `/leaderboard/` on your site? What does it show?

Have you created a leaderboard yet? Hope are the permissions for it set up?

Go to `/admin/plugins/discourse-gamification/leaderboards` and configure the leaderboard visibility as you see fit.
