User Points, the module, provides a method for users to accumulate points for performing certain actions on your site such as posting nodes, commenting or moderating a comment. It also provides an API that allows you to easily add other actions a user may perform to gain points. User Points combined with modules from User Points Contributed modules create a useful mechanism to incentive users to participate in the site, and be more active.
This is a developer group to help plan and discuss the User Points API core module, User Points contributed modules, as well as assist others in creating their own User Points modules.
Different types of user points
Hi,
I'm looking to set up two types of user points.
I.e.: Points and credits.
The reason for this, i want to use "credits" (userpoints) to let users buy credits throigh ubercart <--- possible
and pay for content <--- possible
(exchange the points to the content provider) <--- possible
who will be able to cashout his earned credits <--- another thing that i'm not sure of if possibe).
Also i want to have general points to rank users based on actions on the site (comments, fill in profile fields etc) <--- this i know is possible.

Senpai replies: You should probaby have posted this in the forums on drupal.org instead, since this groups.drupal.org wiki is for the proponents of usability within Drupal itself. Try http://drupal.org/search/apachesolr_search/tinymce?filters=type%3Aforum as a starter link, kk? :)

Userpoints Monthly
Hi,
I am hoping someone with user points experience could tell me if I am able to do this...
I want my users to write blogs etc and get points to donate to one of three charities. They will select the percentages (on their profile) and at the end of each month their total monthly points will be divided as they wished between the charities. Every users points for each charity will be added together and we will then take those points and work out what money goes where (advertising revenue/total points = point value).
Read moreMulti-Level User Points
Some body Please help me for the post
http://drupal.org/node/87353
(Has anyone considered the implementation of a multi-level points system in conjunction with the invite module so that a user could earn points not only for their own actions, but also the actions of the users that they invite to join the system? This could be extended of course to also cover second-generation invites (the invitations of the users you invited), third generation invites, etc...)
Please i required the mdoules fro drupal 6.x version... is there any one to help me.?
Read moreNew module proposal, userpoints history view
I worked in a module time ago (since charts is available) to provide a graphical view for the user point 'history'.
In my setup (a gaming site) having such a view like this (the attached image) would provide more sense of "award" for each point a user gets as they all requested. Finally I did a quick integration with chart and userpoints to just provide the graphical evolution of the user's points.

Permissions
To keep up with continual improvement I'd like to start a discussion around the permissions for userpoints. Currently we have
-Administer userpoints
-View userpoints
-View own userpoints
I'm starting to think we need a permission "View userpoints transaction details" and people have suggested "grant userpoints" and "moderate userpoints" so that non-admins can give points to other people.
Read moreusing mktime correctly
In userpoints.module at line 1537 we have the following function
function userpoints_date_to_timestamp($date) {
//This takes the FAPI date form array and returns a timestamp
if ($date) {
return mktime(0, 0, 0, $date['month'], $date['day'], $date['year']);
}
}The function works just fine and does exactly what its supposed to do BUT it throws an exception when run through simpletest. The following error is reported
Several question regard the userpoints usabillity and future to come...
Hello, First my deep gratitude for this nice useful module.
I was wander about some issues[I am also using nodevote module, an voteAPI]:
1. Is there a way to add the point's on a user node to his own points "bank"? I will be happy if someone did it and can explain me how to.
2. Regarding all the userpoints tables. Are this views? cuase I can't find them in the views. If not, How can I manage them differently? For example, The operation section show me "insert" for all of the earning points types, and I would it to actully show the name of the... article, post, comment, etc.
Version 6 Progress?
Is there an update on how version 6 of the userpoints module is coming along? I notice that the last commit to CVS was around October the 8th and I was wondering whether there was still active development going on.
Read moreTesting Userpoints for version 6
There are a lot of changes that we have in store for userpoints and we are planning to get them all in before we release an official stable 6 version of UP. I, however, got a nice whipping when I released version 5.3 and I do not want a repeat of that. 5.3 was released with several tiny, stupid bugs that could have been easily avoided if I had the time to test the module properly. Unfortunately I nor anyone else had this time. Fortunately we have a new weapon. Simpletest.
I have already begun writing several tests of Userpoints and I'll be checking them off this list as I complete them. I'd like to get all of these in before any major work to the API is performed as it is currently stable and I'd like to keep it that way. My lists of tests is below, please free to add to them and, better yet, write a test.
Read moreUserpoints - how custom it can be?
Hello,
First of all, I'd like to say that I am a complete Drupal newbie. In fact, I don't have a single production site working yet, although I do have a couple test sites. My experience with PHP and mysql is rather limited.
I am looking to create a community website, where you can evaluate other people articles and contributions. Furthermore, each user has his own value, depending on how other users evaluate his own work.
Read moreUserpoints Roadmap
A rework of userpoints has been on my mind for the past several months but to be honest i've never had the time to put into it. Now with recent activity surrounding userpoints (morbus' post, a certain unnamed "fork" of the code) I forced myself to find the time to put my ideas down onto paper so that we can all work together to create a nice roadmap/plan for userpoints. Userpoints has a nice strong community behind it and I don't want to see that change in any way.

Ideas for User Points Moderation Page
Jredding and I have been discussing the User Points moderation page (see attached) in the issue queue and we decided to bring the discussion out here to see if anyone has any fresh, new suggestions.
With User Points 5.x-3.x the moderation table changed a bit. The changes were good and logical but in some cases made my job as moderator a bit more difficult (IMO).

Although I can't find it at the moment the User Points session that Kbahey proposed for DrupalCon was accepted as a Birds of a Feather session.
So what do we want to talk about?
Start throwing out some ideas.

Modifying the administrative section?
New tables, formats?

Drupal Scalability / Userpoints
Two topics relating to Drupal will be presented and discussed in this seminar, followed by an open forum for discussing any Drupal related matters.
The first topic is about Performance Tuning and Optimization and Scalability of High Traffic Drupal sites. Building on experience with high traffic sites using Drupal, we will explore where bottleneck may be, how to avoid them, tuning tips and techniques, and tools for measuring performance.
