Discourse Gamification installed but can't see the leader board

Product Support

AI-generated summary

A user named dccpmmrp reports that although the Discourse Gamification plugin is installed and enabled on their self-hosted instance, the leaderboard is not visible to non-admin users on the public site. manuel suggests checking the plugin’s settings to ensure it’s enabled, which dccpmmrp confirms. Falco asks if navigating to /leaderboard/ manually works — dccpmmrp replies that it’s visible in the admin panel but not publicly. tobiaseigen asks if a leaderboard was created and if permissions are configured. Falco directs dccpmmrp to /admin/plugins/discourse-gamification/leaderboards to adjust visibility settings. Despite confirming configuration, dccpmmrp still cannot see the leaderboard publicly, showing a screenshot of a configured ‘Test’ leaderboard with ‘All Time’ period and ‘Global Leaderboard’ enabled. The issue appears to be related to public visibility permissions rather than plugin activation or leaderboard creation.

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?

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.

Yes I have configured it but still won’t show.

The image displays a leaderboard interface showing a single leaderboard named 'Test' with the period set to 'All Time' alongside 'Global Leaderboard'. The 'Recalculate scores' button is also visible on the right. (Captioned by AI)
