New functions

  • Great plugin! I was using mycred, but the author abondoned the project. So I’ll change our points system to WordPoints.

    For doing that I’ll need one module and a few custom fuctions.

    – A module for points transference between members? Is possible to create?
    A widget or a shortcode where members choose the member to send x amount of points with a custom message.

    – A filter/function for the periodic hook, based on user roles/ranks he receive a different amount of points.
    Role/Rank 1 – gets 50 points weekly
    Role/Rank 2 – gets 100 points weekly

    Something like this, there is a way to achieve that?

    Hello Jean,

    I do not have a module for donations/points transfers yet. It has been requested by other people too, so I have made it a high priority on my to-do list. I would estimate that it would be about 2 months before it is released.

    For the periodic points hook, can you clarify what you mean by “role/rank”? Do you mean the rank the user is given by the Ranks component? Or do you mean the role they have on the site, like “subscriber” or “editor”? Or both?

    I am currently working on a complete rewrite of the points hooks. That will make it easy to add this feature. So I will make this feature a part of WordPoints 2.1. I haven’t decided the release date for 2.1 yet, but it will probably be in August.

    If you have any more questions/suggestions, let me know.

    Thank you for your prompt response!

    I’ll try to create the transference module, and I’ll keep you updated.

    The periodic hook, could be something based on custom ranks or WP Roles (editor/subscriber), since there’s a lot of plugins that generate custom roles already. The ideal would be a custom ranks system (the one that you have already built) so would need the option for manual assignment of ranks and the points to receive on the periodic hook.

    Basically, I just need that different roles receive different amount weekly.

    Thank you for clarifying about the period hook. I’ll try to add that feature in 2.1.

    Yes, please keep me updated in the transfer module.
