Create and respond to content in Jive and earn status points in the community.
The success of your community depends on your contributions, so you are rewarded with
points for getting involved. Over time, you develop a reputation for reliability and
authority in your favorite areas. The more people participate, the more information that
is available for the community as a whole. You can become a top participant in your community by
earning the most status points.
To find out how many points you have, do one of the following:
- Hover over your name from any content item in the interface. In the pop-up
profile card, you'll see your Current Points and Current Level status icon.
- Go to a Latest Acclaim notification in your Inbox. Scroll down through the
notification to see your points and how you rank in a list with other community
users.
Note: The Top Participant widget shows your status points for your activity in that place
only. Therefore, you may notice that your points vary from place to place in the Top
Participant widget.
Because each community can be set up differently, you should ask your community administrator for details
on status points. What activity is rewarded, status levels, and points awarded may vary. Depending on how your
community is set up, you may earn points when you involve yourself in
the following types of activity:
- Post a discussion or question, or respond to one.
- Correctly answer a question.
- Provide helpful information in the replies or comments of documents,
discussions, and blog posts.
- Create new documents.
- Create new blog posts.
- Complete new tasks in a project.
- Create a new status update.
- When someone likes your status update.
- When someone shares your status update.
Note: When content is deleted, status points are also deleted.
