we’ve developed a widget for showing some measurements to user in the right sidebar of the homepage, as shown in this image:
the work is still under progress, and based on this post I know it needs to get better, since we developed it fast to test the effect on users.
for TL0:
it simply shows the limits that needs to be passed so that a user can go to TL1.
after upgrading to TL1:
the user is asked to fill some basic information, right from this widget and without going to the profile page. e.g. name, avatar, birthday, position.
for TL1-2:
the plugin basically shows the efficiency of a user, which is defined as the total number of likes that a user could generate via his/her topic; so somehow the efficiency shows you how your topic has engaged others to discuss and post good & likable replies.
the repository is available here.
p.s.: I have translated the text to Persian in our case, but you can use it in other languages as well.
