I poked around, but couldn’t find the right answers to my questions.

I see that you can edit the title badges, but I haven’t quite figured out how. As an example, both admins and moderators have the shield icon next to their name. I haven’t been able to locate where this association lives within the settings. I would like admins and moderators to have different badges since for us admins are staff while moderators are not.

Second use case might be answered by the above, but we will be introducing VIP users and as such, would like to give them a custom title badge. Is there a way to automate this? I’m not on the development side, but our discourse is connected to our platform’s back end in some way. Would it be as simple as associating a title badge with a user group and then using our back end to apply that group to all the users meeting the VIP condition?

Edit: As an edit, I’m a business user. Not sure if that changes my available options/preferences.
