Leaderboard & Gamification addon

Award points and badges for course activity and rank students on a leaderboard.

The Leaderboard & Gamification addon (Pro) rewards activity with points and badges. Manage it at CourseGlade → Leaderboard, which has Leaderboard, Point Rules, and Badges tabs.

Actions include Course Completed (100), Lesson Completed (10), Quiz Passed (25), Perfect Quiz Score (50), Assignment Submitted (20), Discussion Posted (5), Discussion Reply (1), Course Reviewed (8), and Daily Login (5). Discussion actions can have a daily cap. Each rule has a Label, Action, Points, and an Active switch.

A set of starter badges is seeded for you.
