Is there documentation anywhere explaining points and reputation?

[John Horton]

Points and Reputation points are 2 different systems?  Is there a doc somewhere?

Thanks @Adriano Faria 

[John Horton]

so what is this?

There is a filter just outside of your screenshot on the lower left. Make sure you adjust that to the application you want to look at:

Ok I get it now.  99.999% of my users will only ever do forum posts. Would it be a custom setting for the "Reputation Activity" pane to default to Forums / Posts?

You can drag Forums to the top of ACP -> System -> Applications and that should hopefully organize that for you.

Yep that worked. Thanks.

NEVER would have figured that one out on my own.

Glad we could be of assistance 🙂 .

Do I have this right?

The Leaderboard is set by Reputation Points. Reputation points are only based on Reactions

Reactions count toward Achievement but otherwise the Achievement system and the Reputation system are separate.

Users never see their Achievement Points but only see there Rank.

and again I know I am asking N00b questions. Thanks for being patient with me.

The Leaderboard has 2 areas, the main "Leaderboard" tab is indeed based on reputation. Then "Top Members" is based on whatever you deem there in the dropdown.

Reactions can count towards Achievement points, we have a default rule for that but really that's up to you. Yes, they are indeed separate due to those rules.

Users will never see their Achievement Points, though as they move up and hit ranks/get badges they will be notified (if notifications are enabled for that).
