Description
The myCRED addon connects the myCRED points system to Ultimate Member profiles, automatically rewarding member actions with credits in events like registration, login, avatar upload, filling out fields, and profile visits. Built for those who run online communities with a members area and want to gamify participation, it turns every user interaction into a visible points balance, with ranks and history shown directly on the public profile.
Key Features of myCRED
- Profile event points
Automatically awards credits for registration, login, avatar updates, and field completion. - Balance shown on the profile
Displays the user’s total points directly on the Ultimate Member public card. - Support for ranks and badges
Lets you classify members into levels and display badges as they accumulate points. - Transaction history
Lists all of the user’s point movements in a dedicated tab on the profile. - Compatibility with myCRED hooks
Uses the triggers and rules from the myCRED base plugin to set how much each action is worth.
Benefits of myCRED
- More engaged community
Rewarding micro-actions like editing a profile or logging in daily increases visit frequency. - Visible recognition among members
Public ranks and balance create a social hierarchy and encourage healthy competition. - Automation without manual setup
Actions in Ultimate Member become points without needing code or item-by-item setup. - Foundation for loyalty programs
Lets you build an internal economy in your members area without migrating to another platform.
Who is myCRED Intended For?
- Anyone managing an online community in Ultimate Member and wants to gamify member participation.
- You who want to reward users for concrete actions, like completing the profile, doing daily login, or interacting with other members.
- Anyone already using myCRED in other parts of the site and needs to extend the points economy to member registration and profiles.
How to Download myCRED
The myCRED is available for download here on Ultrapack. After saving the .zip file, go to Plugins > Add New > Upload plugin, select the file, install it, and activate it. Remember to keep Ultimate Member and the myCRED base plugin installed, since this extension depends on both to register and display the points.
For communities that rely on member retention, gamifying registration and the profile is usually the shortest path between initial signup and recurring participation. With the bridge between myCRED and Ultimate Member already configured, you have time to design your site’s points economy (how much each action is worth, which badges to deliver, which ranks to use) instead of dealing with the technical integration between the two plugins.
