I'M WILLING TO PAY FOR THIS DEVELOPMENT
I really want to encourage my (future) users to post on my site. I currently have the Social Network, Yogurt module (along with a lot of other ones).
I would like a new module/plugin that will reward users a pre-determined amount of points every time they do certain activities (write an article in AMS, vote in a Xoops Poll, take a myQuiz, post on the Newbbex forum, etc). Each activity will have its own amount of points (see bottom for more details). Perhaps the amount of points they get for each activity can be adjusted in the backend.
I would like their Social Network profile to display the number of points they have on their profile.
Then, I would like there to be a section on my page for rewards with some kind of support in the backend where I can add/edit/remove rewards. If a user has enough points they can redeem their points for a reward. The redemption will automatically subtract that number of points from their account and the updated total will be displayed on their Social Network profile.
I know a little bit of php and MySQL and I have another site (not using Xoops) that I was able to successfully create this type of development for. However, I'm still getting used to the Xoops structure and I have A LOT of installed modules and they are all set up in different ways so it's a little confusing to me.
Here are the things I want them to get points for. The limitations just prevent people from doing the same activity over and over (spamming mostly) just to get points. For example: under the first one below, they can comment how ever many times they want on an AMS article, but they will only get points for ONE comment on a single article. They can also write multiple articles per day but only get 50 points for each of their first 5 articles of the day. There are also character/word limits so they actually make meaningful posts and don't try to spam.
