    I’m noticing, when accessing my MyCRED-powered site,
    right after I earned a new rank, there was no notification,
    and the description I wrote in the post area beneath
    the rank title does not appear anywhere on my
    BuddyPress-powered profile.

    Is this a compatibility error with BuddyPress,
    or is it something from within MyCRED causing this?

    If it is not a feature already, feature request:
    Automatically send out a BuddyPress notification
    in the BuddyPress user activity stream,
    when a user has been awarded a new rank.

    Hi

    There is no built in notification for Ranks being awarded right now, all though having the option to add it to the activity stream sounds like a good idea.

    Not sure I understand what you mean with “I wrote in the post area beneath the rank title does not appear anywhere”. You can insert a users rank (the ranks post title) or the rank logo (the ranks featured image) into the users header by using the %rank% or %rank_logo% template tags. If you are looking to show other parts of the rank (i.e. excerpt or content) you will need to add this yourself where ever you feel you want it. But I could also be totally misunderstanding you.

    My apologies. I don’t think I was very clear at first.

    Here’s what I was trying to do:
    I was trying to input a rank description in the area
    below where you see the rank title when creating a new rank.

    I am still fairly new to MyCRED, and am still exploring its limits,
    (Overall, very nice job on it, by the way,)
    so maybe it’s impossible to add a rank description, or maybe not,
    but either way, I’d appreciate it if you could clear this up for me.

    As for the possibility of a built-in notification system for ranks,
    added to MyCRED’s BuddyPress add-on, I’m all for it!
    Having an automatic post posted to the user’s activity stream,
    or a little notification in the BuddyPress notification button,
    or both, would be a fantastic feature to add to MyCRED.
    Please, PLEASE, look at adding this. It’s a small feature, I know,
    but might be useful to add in the long run, at some point.

    Thanks, and I look forward to more updates of MyCRED!

    I’ve asked for a similar feature via email notification in the myCRED forums.

    Thx

    You need to visit the myCRED Settings page and under the “Ranks” tab tick the checkboxes for each post feature you want enabled.

    By default, myCRED Ranks have a title and featured image but you can also enable excerpt, content, custom fields etc etc.
