[Plugin: CubePoints] Cubepoints And Custom Post Types

You might already have found a solution for this but you can just add a custom module to CubePoints to accomplish what you are looking for.

Here is a module for you:

<?php

	'http://www.merovingi.com',
	__('This module awards points for publishing custom post types.', 'cp' ), 1 );

if ( cp_module_activated( 'mulcustomposttypepoints' ) ) {

	/** Module Configuration */
	add_action( 'cp_config_form', 'cp_multi_customtypes_admin_setting' );
	function cp_multi_customtypes_admin_setting() {

				}

You will need to add a an action for each custom post type you want to use. In the above example I am giving points for the post type books.

Most plugins comes with hooks that you can take advantage off by hooking into them and manipulating CubePoints. Do a search for the plugin name and cubepoints. Could be that someone out there has already made a module for it.

What is the name of the plugin your are using?

shiftdel15589 please open a new post with your question, as this post is regarding “Cubepoints And Custom Post Types”.

Using this module, and the solution is super good.
but please i have a little problem:
My users can edit the Custom Post and when they do they always receive points. Any idea how to limit this.

Currently I can not move on myCRED 🙁
myCRED it’s better and does not have this problem.

User still get points every time I update that post 🙁

You see where it says where type = 'post'. That needs to be where type = '$post_type'. It is checking if a post of the type 'post' has been awarded points. You want to check for the post type passed to the function ($post_type).

Hey.

I have made a new version of this module using the transition_post_status action instead of publish_$post_type. Try it out and see what you think. It should only award point when the custom post type gets published.

Using pastebin instead of pasting code here to avoid any errors.
