Get the PNG for your badge.

Upload the badge

The badge will need a URL to the badge image. The simplest thing to do is to write a post in Discourse explaining the new badge. Paste the badge image into the post. Once you save the post, you can right-click the image to get its URL.

Create the badge

Go to https://discuss.openedx.org/admin/badges, and use the New button.

• Icon: It doesn’t matter that much, because your image will take precedence.

• Image: put the image URL you copied into the Image fieldselect Upload an Image, and upload the badge image you made.

• Type (bronze, silver, gold): Probably at least silver. Look at the existing badges to see other badges for comparison.

• Group: “Contribution” is likely, but we can make another group if you want.

• Write descriptions

• Be sure to check off:

  • “Show badge on the public badges page”

  • “Show post granting badge on badge page”, if appropriate

  • “Enable badge”

Award the badge
