DWQA and MyCRED: (not) working?

Sener Aytemir
asked 9 years ago

I’m getting mixed signals about this one:
I’ve read al questions regarding this issue and saw this question http://www.designwall.com/question/okay-pointscredits-feature-mycred-me-integration-is-on-the-way-what-is-the-next-feature-you-are-looking-for/

However, although I do see the options in myCRED to give points to questions and answers IT DOES NOT SEEM TO WORK (on a clean site with default theme).

I also read that for a small fee the integration will be done…

PLEASE:
What’s the official status of DWQA and myCRED working together.

Thanks in advance.

Kinds regards,
Tschai.

Here is the code to get point from myCred

<?php if(function_exists('mycred_get_users_cred')) echo '<span class="sep">&sdot;</span><span class="author-bugget">'.mycred_get_users_cred(get_the_author_meta('ID')).' $tone</span>'; ?>

If you want to put this point next to author name. Please copy template files from /dw-question-answer/inc/templates/default/ into //dwqa-templates/ then put that code into your template files .
Hope this help!

Hi, I also want to add this feature. Where will I place the code. Is it the fuction.php? thanks
2) To put this point next to author name… I dont get the steps. How many template files will I copy the code to? where is dwqa templates? and which of the template files? thank you.

@Odanye Oluwatobiloba : to add this feature, you can follow my instruction :
First : you need to open plugins/dw-question-answer/inc/templates/default/*.php
All that php file in there are the template of default dwqa. You copy the template there and go to your theme : themes/< YOUR THEME >/ .. create a folder name dwqa-templates : you copy the template you need that will appear the credit there( Just copy all if you hard to select which file will be modify ) , it’ll override the default template in dwqa plugin. that’s why @Dom want you to copy the template.

Next: the next thing you need to do is add the plugin MyCred then active it. Set up it Then you go to Hooks in Mycred back-end menu go to section Point for publishing content, and config for dw-question-answer. You can see this picture : ![enter image description here](http://i.imgur.com/OTUrFUQ.png?1 "enter image title here")

For comments , go to section Point for comments below it.

After that each time a question is ask or get answer , there will be a log that record it in backend. And to show the Point of each user you can use the fuction of Mycred to get it :
MYCRED_GET_USERS_CRED
read more here : http://codex.mycred.me/category/functions/

E.g : If you want to display the point next to the author : go to file dwqa-templates/single-questions.php about line 32 after printf() add these code :

if(function_exists('mycred_get_users_cred')) echo '<span class="sep">&sdot;</span><span class="author-bugget">'.mycred_get_users_cred(get_the_author_meta('ID')).' $</span>';

Hope this help, glad
