Overview

Description

Drive engagement - give members a reason to come back tomorrow. Activity Streaks tracks consecutive posting days, shows a friendly widget, and plugs into Achievements so you can award points/badges at milestones (3, 7, 14, 30, 100… you choose).

Highlights

• Streak widget with multiple visualizations: Dots (classic), Weekly goal meter, Big number badge, Milestone progress bar, Compact sparkline, Donut meter.

• “Best streak” label (member & profile sidebar support).

• Achievements action: Streak reaches N days — award points/badges at the exact day threshold.

• Admin-friendly rules: create multiple thresholds (e.g., 3/7/14/30/100) with your own points/badges.

• End-of-day nudge (optional): configurable reminder hour.

• Visibility controls: limit the widget to selected member groups.

• Performance aware: lightweight queries with caching; adjustable TTL.

• No external services: respects IPS permissions; zero tracking.

"Enable end-of-day nudge by default" will show a subtle effect reminding people to post.

Admin controls

• Per-widget override of visualization style.

• Fixed or auto milestones for bar/donut views.

• Optional custom donut goals (CSV).

• Group visibility allow-list.

• Cache TTL (seconds).
