Author Extras (rating, awards)?

I saw elsewhere that this forum (s2member.com) is using a customized version of bbpress. I’m assuming those customizations include the “Rate this user” rating and “Helpful,” “Experienced,” etc, awards that are associated with some forum users. Are those customizations plugins that can be made available? I’m looking to do something similar on one of the sites I develop for. I’m pretty sure I could write it myself, but why reinvent the wheel? Thanks!

Hello Andy,

Yeah, that’s where I saw that they were using a customized version of bbpress. Cristián didn’t say which (if any) plugins did the rating or reward part. I’m not a “Paid customer” so i can’t post there (The free version does everything I need.)

Oh the rating part, I’m not sure if it’s a plugin, I believe it’s an integration with another website. :)

I believe the integration was made with PollDaddy.

Hope this helps. :)
