# Admin-awarded Points?

 * Hello, thank you for your great plugin! (I learned of it while researching gamification
   in the LearnDash support forum). So far I’m good on setting up and using the 
   plugin on my test site but I do have one problem at this time. I’ve read the 
   documentation, this forum and also searched this forum but haven’t found an answer.
   QUESTION: Is it possible for Points to be admin-awarded? I’d like to award points
   to students for a few activities that are neither wordpress nor LearnDash based.
   Can I do that in GamiPress? I see there is an “admin awarded” option in the Achievement
   Data defining how an Achievement is earned…is there something similar for Points?
   I see and am using the great list of auto-triggers for awarding Points but nothing
   re admin-awarded points. Thanks in advance!

 * Hi [@smartdogs](https://wordpress.org/support/users/smartdogs/)
 * To award or deduct manually points to an user just go to his profile and manually
   set the new points amount
 * GamiPress will calculate the different and will log it automatically with the
   administrator that did it
 * Achievements are the unique thing that supports to be admin-awarded with idea
   to let you register the achievement and award it when you consider
 * I will mark this topic as resolved
 * Best regards
