to add an icon before/after “points”

Hi @kloud,

Other users have also suggested the option to use an icon as the prefix or suffix. Until that feature is added, you can hook into the wordpoints_format_points filter.

Your function would look something like this:

function my_wordpoints_format_points_filter( $formatted, $points, $points_type, $context ) {

	// Only add the icon for the "Credits" points type.
	if ( 'credits' === $points_type ) {
		$formatted = $formatted . '<img src="icon.png" />';
	}

	return $formatted;
}
add_filter( 'wordpoints_format_points', 'my_wordpoints_format_points_filter', 10, 4 );

Of course, you could add conditions so that the icon is only displayed in particular contexts, or for specific points types. You could also change the HTML there to use a font icon instead of an image.

I hope that solves your problem. Let me know if you have more questions.

Thank you very much -)
The function made it.
There’s only one problem with displaying img/icon in widget “Wordpoints”.
As i can see, it parses html as a text.
The first line.

Maybe we can do something with this too?-)

There is a filter that you can use to disable HTML escaping in the WordPoints widget:

remove_filter( 'wordpoints_points_widget_text', 'esc_html', 20 );

I think maybe I will change this in a future version of WordPoints, so that some HTML is allowed by default.

I’ve added the code in my functions.php. It didn’t help unfortunately.

Ah, I looked at the code and it looks like it actually needs to be this instead:

function my_wordpoints_allow_html_in_wordpoints_widget() {
	remove_filter( 'wordpoints_points_widget_text', 'esc_html', 20 );
}
add_action( 'widgets_init', 'my_wordpoints_allow_html_in_wordpoints_widget', 20 );

Yeah, that’s it.!
Thank you so much.
