Forum Badges

Forums badges was an idea raised by Thomas Bell to increase participation in Mahara.org forums. Initially with the idea of increasing the participation in the Mahara project as a whole, but as discussed in the June 2011 Developer Meeting would be an excellent feature for the Mahara core code too.

Possible forum badge names:

  • Core Developer
  • Code Contributor
  • Bug Squasher
  • Mahara Translator
  • Community Moderator
  • Mahara Themer
  • Maharan (possibly default)


Similar feature in other forums:

  • Ubuntu Community Forums - based on amount of posts, probably uses postcount milestones (perhaps not what I am suggesting here, although could be a small additional feature)
    Ubuntu forum with postcount milestones
  • Moodle forums -
    Moodle Forum user with two badges
