Hi team,
As I was checking the various configuration options as a new user of EasyDiscuss, I got frustrated with the Badges and regretfully deleted them. I did that because I want to show the Badges on the front-end in a specific sort order, just as one normally can using the "ordering function" in Joomla itself.
Since "ordering" badges does not seem to be an option, I decided to delete (should have just Unpublished....arrrh) and create Badges myself so that the ID order would determine how they would show on the front-end.
I basically want Badges to follow a logical progression, such as: Badge 1 is for "posts" , B2 is for Replies, B3 is for Views, etc. In other words, a progression sequence that follows how users interact with the forum content, and not the sort order of the badges that come with the default installation.
HOWEVER, when I created the new Badges, I still cannot control the sort order on the front-end. So if I can't really control it, then I would rather have the ORIGINAL Badges back and just just a few select ones that I am most interested in, to keep it simple for users, but still have the motivator of Badges as a feature.
I had installed 4.1.2 two days ago, updated on the backend to 4.1.3, ran into the ACL Create Tag problem and fixed that by (re)installing 4.1.3 over itself.
I THOUGHT this would re-add the original Badges that I had deleted, but it did not.
Is there a way to reinstall just these Badges without recreating them from scratch manually.
Sorry for the long post, but I wanted to clear about the issue!
Thanks,
