Badges? Badger Sekerob! [Question answered]

I was just looking at the FAQ thread Project Badges, Past and Present, trying to find the amounts of crunching required to get the various badge colours. This info is not there, so if you think it should be, then ...
I did notice that the bit in the box about "contribution analysis tracking Per Project ... on the My Grid pages" needs updating, since this feature has advanced from planned to (well) done smile

Re: Badges? Badger Sekerob!

Hi Rick,

Is there not a link to the Help info article describing the requirements for each project ;?

Will update v.v. the feature completion.

thanks

(will wait updating the FAQ, so it can be checked that I did not sneak it in quickly, Robert Palmer, Sneakin Sally through the Alley biggrin )

Re: Badges? Badger Sekerob!

Sorry - you are right. The link This Help Article goes to the explanation. I had in mind a little sub-section, with sample coloured badges and a caption like:
Badge colours: The background colour of a member's badge indicates the amount the member has contributed to that project. Details.

I also found the info at What is a Project Badge?
I expect that having the same info at (at least) 2 different places like this makes website maintenance difficult, unless there's a way of bringing in-line text from the same source into different pages, as you can with images. - R -

Re: Badges? Badger Sekerob!

Actually, by putting info in Start Here and Help it increases the chance of a member finding it. At for the badge info in help, there a more ways of hitting the article, but it still being only ones in help. I've even put a number of help items in the Start Here FAQ index just to increase the hit rate of finds and still some good people don't biggrin

There is a line talking about the B/S/G, but your caption break out is a good idea... excuse me for ripping it right this moment.

ciao
