Display points of users

We have this issue created already https://github.com/opencredit/badgeos/issues/52 but that doesn’t make it implemented already yet. However it is a known request.

If you want and know how to, all of the achievements are posts/post meta so WP_Query would be optimal for something like this for crafting your own until then.

I have created my own shortcode for this. Not sure if this has been resolved but I can supply mine if that is helpful.

should have just posted this before! Hope it helps someone.
I’m very much a novice but this works for me. I made my own plugin folder to put this and others I experiment with….

function badgeos_get_users_points_shortcode( $user_id = 0 ) {

// Use current user’s ID if none specified
if ( ! $user_id )
$user_id = wp_get_current_user()->ID;

// Return our user’s points as an integer (sanely falls back to 0 if empty)
return absint( get_user_meta( $user_id, ‘_badgeos_points’, true ) );
}
add_shortcode( ‘badgeos_get_users_points’, ‘badgeos_get_users_points_shortcode’ );

Hi Dylan,
Thanks for your code!

I am curious to know how best to define the user id within the shortcode if needed? would something like this work if I wanted to pass the author id?

echo do_shortcode( '[badgeos_get_current_user_points '.$user_id.'='.$author_id.']' );

I tried it but it didn’t work so I was thinking to create another shortcode for the authors but then thought I could check here first.

Thanks!

Yeah, given that nature of what’s going on, and how it would affect what the shortcode does, it may be a case of copying/making your own version at the moment.

Thanks, I made a clone of the code and changed where needed and all is working fine.

Again, thanks all for the useful codes here and in other posts!
