MDGarcia Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Some of you may have noticed that there are little purple badges appearing under your mini-profiles on certain posts and wondering what all that's about. In short, this new software allows us to deploy an awards system with badges (created by our own Steff). We're opening up the Monthly Challenge archive and awarding badges from 2009 on up. This, of course, means we're having to dive back into the archives to determine winners and award them appropriately. At this time, we only have the 2009 badges done. As Steff designs and posts the other years, you will see them show up in your profiles. If you have any questions or suggestions for awards, please let me know!

jespah Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 A suggestion -- since you're going in and looking up the winning entries anyway -- why not add a link to them as well, and get, perhaps, more readership for the best stories? I don't want to add a lot of work, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDGarcia Posted July 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 The system doesn't support links in the fields. It strips them out. I had already tried it previously, when I was adding them into the system. MDg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
