Inspired by video game achievement systems, Achievements for BuddyPress gives your community fresh impetus by promoting and rewarding social interaction with challenges, badges and points. For example, reward users for commenting on a blog post or uploading a picture to their profile.

Hi Paul,
I am looking for a point system silmilar to your plugin. We are developing a WordPress multisite with a youth (12-22) target market. We have decided not to use BuddyPress because of a few incompatibilities to our overall goal. Will you Achievements work in a multisite that is not BuddyPress?
Hi Kathy,
No, Achievements requires BuddyPress.

Is there any chance that you will be advancing the plugin with a “lottery” extension?
I’ve seen one for Cubepoints and thought it was a great idea. Very useful for raffles etc for active users.
Also – on a side note: “where do I adjust the size of the achievement page. For some strange reason it maxes the width out on my theme. (max width)
Hi. No plans for anything like a “lottery” feature.
Hello Paul,
I haven’t tried your plugin yet but I’m very excited and hopeful to know that it exists. I specifically want to integrate the virtual currency system into an ecommeerce solution to purchase real or electronic products. So at the point of purchase users will be shown how much virtual currency is rrqured to buy the product or use as a discount on the purchase. Can this be accomplished with the WP e-Commerce plugin?
Also, does this plugin support multisite? In which case if I had a network of several sites can you track user activity across all the sites?
Thx.
