GamiPress Nominations

Description

The Nominations addon adds to GamiPress a nomination system where users nominate other members for achievements, points, or ranks, turning social recognition into a native mechanic of the gamification platform. Aimed at communities, membership areas, and corporate environments, the component creates a peer-to-peer nomination flow with configurable approval, dedicated forms, and automatic triggers when a nomination is submitted, accepted, or rejected by the administrator.

Main Features

• User-to-user nomination system
  Allows members to nominate other users to receive specific GamiPress rewards.
• Configurable nomination form
  Offers a dedicated shortcode to insert the form on any page, post, or widget.
• manual or automatic approval
  Sets whether each nomination requires administrator review before granting the reward.
• Triggers integrated with GamiPress
  Adds triggers for nominations sent, approved, and rejected, which activate points and achievements.
• Nomination history per user
  Records who nominated whom, with date, status, and linked reward type.

Benefits of Nominations

• More social engagement
  Encourages active participation by involving the community in peer recognition processes.
• Decentralized recognition
  Allows achievements to be awarded based on merit perceived by the user base itself.
• Administrative control preserved
  Keeps moderation in the manager’s hands with optional approval flow before each reward.
• Additional gamification mechanic
  Expands the repertoire of pointable actions without requiring custom logic or in-house development.

Who Is It Recommended For?

• Administrators of online communities wanting to reward members nominated by other members.
• Association sites, clubs, and internal corporate recognition programs.
• Educational projects and course platforms that value mentions among students and instructors.

The Nominations addon adds to GamiPress a layer of horizontal recognition uncommon in gamification systems, where the initiative comes from the community itself and not only from automatic rules. For managers who already use points, achievements, and ranks, the module opens a new front of engagement by turning nominations into rewardable events within the same administrative structure.
