Achievements & GenesisConnect

Achievements works pretty well with GenesisConnect, but from version 2.0.5 of Achievements, we’re taking extra special care to improve compatibility further. There are four changes that you will need to make to your Achievements templates files.

Rather than editing the files inside the Achievements plugin directory manually, copy the following files:

create.php and index.php from: /plugins/achievements/includes/templates/achievements/
to: /themes/your-theme/achievements/

home.php from: /plugins/achievements/includes/templates/achievements/single/
to: /themes/your-theme/achievements/single/

achievements.php from: /plugins/achievements/includes/templates/members/single/
to: /themes/your-theme/members/single/

Now you have safely copied the templates, in each, open in a text editor and find the very top line of the file. It will look like this:

<?php get_header() ?>

Change it to:

<?php get_header();
genesis_before_content_sidebar_wrap();
gconnect_before_content(); ?>

At the bottom of these files, look for:

<?php get_footer() ?>

And change to:

<?php gconnect_after_content();
genesis_after_content_sidebar_wrap();
get_footer();
?>

If you ever stop using GenesisConnect, but still want to use Achievements, delete these four customised files otherwise your site will stop working. You have been warned.
