How to add recent badges to the sidebar?

Question

I am using the badges plugin and I think is awesome. Is there any way to add a recent badges widget to the sidebar?

Answer 1

Thanks for the feedback :)

This requires event logging of badges, which hasn't been implemented until now.  I've just updated the badges plugin to log badges (requires event logging to database), and added a recent badges widget which requires logging as well.

Update the plugin and let me know if it works.

I don't know if we are talking about the same thing, but it would be ridiculous if we were to record manual badge awarding in the event log - on my site that would put >1500 entries into the log, making it pretty useless for other purposes.  Once some of your users actually earn badges, it should log them and show them in the widget.  I can't do better than that, sorry.

I think I have fixed the notices, please update the code again and let me know.

notices fixed

I do appreciate a lot what you are doing and support for Q&A.

Is the widget showing own badges for the logged in user or the latest badges awarded to the community members? how many badges are showing in the widget or it will show them all?

community members; you can set the number of badges via admin/plugins
