Badges are awards that community members earn as their points grow. Each badge covers a range of points, for example 0–99 for "Newcomer" and 100–499 for "Regular". Manage them in Community › Settings › Badges.

How do I create a badge?

  1. Go to Community › Settings and click the Badges tab.

  2. Click Add New Badge. The Create Badge window opens.

  3. Badge Title: the badge name members see.

  4. Point From and Point To: the points range for this badge. A member holds the badge while their points are in this range.

  5. Badge Photo: click the upload icon to add an image for the badge.

  6. Badge Description: a short explanation of the badge.

  7. Click Create.

Create Badge window

Your badges are listed on the Badges tab. Use Sort By to change their order.

Tip: make the ranges follow on from each other without gaps or overlaps (for example 0–99, 100–499, 500–999) so every member fits exactly one badge.

To show members' progress and rank in the community, see Turning on the community leaderboard, rankings and progress levels.
