myCred Points Cap

myCred Points Cap is an official add-on of the myCred ecosystem that allows WordPress site administrators to set precise limits on the number of points users can earn, accumulate, or redeem on a platform. This control is essential for reward systems, loyalty platforms, and gamification projects that seek to maintain a healthy balance in point accumulation, avoiding saturation and ensuring a fair and controlled experience for all participants.

The add-on integrates directly with the myCred hooks system, allowing point caps to be applied to specific earning rules. Administrators can configure limits per day, week, month, or even lifetime, adapting the points strategy to the temporal goals of their community. Additionally, it is possible to define limits per activity, so that repetitive actions such as comments, purchases, or achievements do not generate unlimited rewards.

Among its most notable features are the assignment of maximum point limits per user, the configuration of restrictions by time periods, and the ability to show users both accumulated points and the current maximum limit using the shortcode [mycred_user_limit]. This transparency fosters more active and honest participation within the community.

The add-on also offers flexibility to adapt limits according to user role, thus differentiating between novice and advanced users with benefits appropriate to each group. All limited transactions are recorded in the myCred logs system, ensuring accurate and transparent monitoring of how limits affect participation.

myCred Points Cap is designed for administrators of membership sites, online stores with loyalty programs, gamified communities, and any platform that uses myCred as a points management system. Its configuration is simple and does not require advanced technical knowledge: just activate the add-on from the myCred panel, drag the "Cap for Points" hook to the active hooks, and define the desired maximum values.

With myCred Points Cap, administrators gain total control over the points economy of their platform, preventing excessive accumulation and ensuring that the reward system maintains its value and appeal in the long term. It is the ideal tool for those seeking a balanced and sustainable user experience.
