Leaderboard opt-out request

Hi @Stijn, thanks for your feedback! While we don’t support users to do this for themselves yet, there is a workaround for when they bring this up to the community team. You can create a custom role (eg. Leaderboard opt-out) and then exclude users with this role from the leaderboard. You can do this on the Gamification > Point System page in Control. 

Ah, right. I had found that this can be done with Primary User Roles, which would be rather impractical, but I hadn't noticed it can be done with Custom User Roles as well. That would indeed be a decent workaround for now. Thanks for the suggestion!

Adding a +1 to this idea.

A number of our superusers would like to be able to opt-out of any and all gamification. While I agree a work-around is a good temporary solution, allowing all users to control this setting for themselves would be preferable. :) 

Cheers,

Ditte

I’ve implemented the workaround for the opt-out with a Custom User Role, but it appears to not be working correctly. The users who have the opt-out enabled are only removed from the full leaderboard view. They are however still being included in the top x display on the frontpage, on both the week and the all-time tabs.

Can this be investigated?

Never mind, I just found the cause and the solution. I had missed that the front page leaderboard view had it's own exclusion list via the front page customisation view. I had not added the Custom User Role to that list yet.

Hey @Stijn I just had a member request to be ignored. Would you mind sharing how you configured that role?
