Promotions are a great way to either reward users for being active on the site, or they can even be used as a spam deterrent.
This tutorial assumes you are already logged in with the Admin user and are logged into the AdminCP and that you have made user groups to use for the promotions.
- Before creating promotions, you need to enable the setting at AdminCP >> Settings and under the User title you will see Settings click that to open the User Settings screen.
- Scroll down and enable Check for Promotions. This will check for a promotion when the user logs in.
- Once that setting is saved, go back to the main AdminCP menus and under Members, click Promotions.
- Click Create Promotion.
- Choose each of the following things to set up the promotion:
- User Group to move from.
- If doing this by points, put how many points are needed before the user is promoted.
- If doing this by number of days registered, choose how many days are needed before the user is promoted. You can't choose both points and days so only choose one.
- Choose which user group to move the user to for this promotion.
