The kind of change we mean

Real examples of gamification work. If yours is not here, it probably still fits.

Points for specific actions

Posting, replying, completing a profile or finishing a course, each worth points you decide, not a fixed default.

Badges and achievements

A badge awarded automatically the first time a member hits a milestone you define.

Ranks and levels

A visible rank on the profile and activity stream that changes as points accumulate.

A leaderboard

A ranked list of top members, scoped to all time, a month, or one group.

Extending WB Gamification

Custom point rules and integrations built on top of WB Gamification's engine rather than a separate system.

WB Gamification

Gamification tied to learning or sales

Points and badges awarded for LMS course milestones or marketplace purchases, not just forum activity.

Gamification nobody uses is a settings page nobody needed. We start by asking what behavior you actually want more of.

  • From the moment we partnered with Wbcom Designs in 2016, they have been nothing short of phenomenal, becoming not just our go-to website developers but also treasured friends. Their team, led by the incredibly kind and competent Varun, has saved our operations on more occasions than we can count, proving their indispensability time and again. Honestly, we would not be where we are without Varun! What sets Wbcom Designs apart is not just their exceptional coding and website building skills, which are indeed the best we've ever encountered, but also their remarkable work ethic and dedication. They are always there when we need them, no matter the request or time. This level of availability and commitment is rare and has been instrumental in our company's growth and smooth digital operations. Their expertise is vast, covering all the bases and then some, ensuring that every solution is not just effective but also innovative. Varun and his team have a way of making complex technical solutions understandable and accessible, which has been a huge relief and support to us over the years. We are endlessly impressed by how Wbcom Designs not only meets but consistently exceeds our expectations. They go above and beyond in every project, large or small, demonstrating a genuine care for our success and well-being.

In a world where genuine, reliable, and high-quality web development services can be hard to find, Wbcom Designs shines as a beacon of excellence. We cannot imagine going anywhere else for our web development needs. To Varun and the entire Wbcom Designs team: thank you for being such an integral part of our story. Your work ethic, expertise, and kindness have made all the difference.

  • We were having a critical issue with our website. We were able to quickly get through to WBcom Designs and they worked with us to give them what they needed to find the problem and correct it. I highly recommend their team and especially Pallavi.

  • Fantastic 6 star support. I wanted to setup a membersite and tried many solutions. I contacted Wbcom for BuddyX and tried the theme with Buddypress. I am not a webdesigner or a coder, but had a requirement that was not standaard. I contacted WBcom and Pallavi helped me from start to finish with snippets to get my requirement working. Thanks Pallavi for your patience and support.

Questions

Does this need WB Gamification installed?
No. We can build on WB Gamification, extend a different points plugin you already run, or write the rules as a small custom plugin.
Will members find it too gimmicky?
That is a real risk, and we will tell you if a rule looks like it rewards spam rather than genuine participation before we build it.
Can you change the rules later?
Yes. Points, badges and rank thresholds are configuration, not hard-coded, so adjusting them after launch does not need a new development cycle.
How long does this take?
Usually days, not weeks, for points and badges. A full leaderboard and rank system with custom rules takes longer and gets its own estimate.
