Better User Points - may be a plugin?

Question

The default User Points in Q2A is not up to the mark. Mainly the following things lack:

1. No points for comments
2. No points for comment upvotes
3. No points for edits

But I see that this can be done via a plugin. Anyone interested or has any suggestion here?

Comments

Comment voting is one of the features in roadmap for Q2A 1.8. So wouldn't it be better to wait for it rather than making a plugin for it when the next version to be released is 1.8 ;)

Yes, but I need it for my site and only comment voting is expected in Q2A 1.8. I'm trying to add some custom points like blogs.exams and comment is just a part. Also, anyone can add any other points too - without having to worry about core.

Answer 1

Interested, however i did it on my own , as changes in code - working without any problems :)

Comments

Yes, but thats an issue when updates come. Core hacks are easy and works fine, but I had trouble when core got updated. Anyway can you say what all extra points you have added- I'm making this plugin without touching the core or even the userpoints table as I expect it to be changed in Q2A 1.8.

Wise words arjun. I'd definitely upvote your comment but I can't :P

Hopefully, Q2A 1.8 should fix it :) But for now this should do - but not advised to try on sites using Top/Best Users per month until month end. @Piotr You may modify this to include the points for Quiz also - it should be easy as I have added the same for my custom Exam plugin.
