Overview
This plugin provides two leaderboards for awarded badges. The first leaderboard shows the available badges sorted by the number of users owning this badge. The second one shows all users sorted by the number of badges owned by them.
There is one badge ladder for site badges and one for course badges which can be enabled for every course separately. For each badge ladder you can enable an anonymous mode to hide the names of users.
