Tags: Challenges, Rewards, Certificates, Tickets

Attaching certificates to badges is a great way to inspire readers to take on and complete challenges. This article shows you how to create a certificate and attach it to a badge within a challenge from the admin side, as well as view a certificate from the reader view.

1. Log in to the admin view of your site.

2. Go to Challenges and select a challenge draft.

   • Note: We recommend against adding certificates to published and/or current challenges since they will not be rewarded retroactively.

3. Select the “Badges” tab.

4. Click “Edit” next to the badge you’d like to add a certificate for.

   • Only 1 certificate can be added to a badge. 

   • You cannot add certificates for registration, completion, review, repeatable activity, and points badges (however, there is a workaround).

5. Under “Reward Earned With This Badge”, do one of the following:

   • Use the dropdown menu to select an existing certificate.

   • Click “Create a Certificate”, fill in the form fields, and click “Save and Add.”

6. Click “Save.”
