Beskrivelse
Weal Profile adds a dedicated front-end account page for authenticated users (default: /my-profile), allowing them to manage selected profile fields without accessing the WordPress admin dashboard.
Development happens open-source on GitHub. Contributions, issues, and feature requests are welcome:

The plugin also includes an admin settings page where site administrators can configure the account page, choose which profile fields are editable by users, and manage gamification thresholds.

* Enable or disable profile fields shown on the public account page
* Set a custom URL slug for the personal account page (default: /my-profile)
* Enable or disable the comment likes/dislikes system
* Configure thresholds and comment count targets for each achievement badge
Available profile fields:

Front-End User Features
On the public account page, logged-in users can:
* Edit their personal profile information (based on admin settings)
* Upload and remove a profile avatar
* View their comment activity and reaction statistics (likes/dislikes received)
Achievements & Badges System
A motivational achievements and badges system that rewards users based on their comment activity:
* Active Commentator badge dashicons-awards — awarded when a user reaches a configurable threshold of approved comments.
* Cutie badge 🥰 (🥰) — awarded when a user receives a configurable number of likes on comments.
* Angry badge 👿 (👿) — awarded when a user receives a configurable number of dislikes on comments.
Key features:
* Badges are dynamically displayed on user avatars in the comments section.
* Fully configurable targets via the admin panel.
* REST API endpoints for managing achievement settings.
Comment Likes / Dislikes
Logged-in users can like or dislike comments on posts.
* Toggle likes and dislikes with a single click.
* Active state visual feedback on voted buttons.
* Vote counts update instantly via AJAX.
* Configurable toggle in admin settings to enable/disable the system.
* Comment reaction statistics shown on the user profile page (total likes/dislikes received, top voted comments).
* Dedicated database table (weal_comment_votes) for efficient vote storage.
* Unique constraint prevents duplicate votes per user per comment.
Post Rating System
A 5-star rating system is automatically displayed on single post pages.
* Visitors can rate posts from 1 to 5 stars.
* Rating is stored in post meta (rating_sum, rating_count, rating_average).
* Partial star visualization (e.g., 3.5 stars shows 3 full + 1 half-filled star).
* Anti-double-vote protection via cookies.
* AJAX-based submission with instant UI update.
* Schema.org AggregateRating markup for SEO.
Activity Center
The plugin provides a convenient centralized space where users can track their comment history and quickly return to conversations they participated in.
Localization
The plugin is fully translation-ready and officially supports 4 languages:
* English (EN)
* French (FR)
* Spanish (ES)
* Russian (RU)
Database
The plugin creates a custom database table on activation:
* wp_weal_comment_votes — stores comment likes/dislikes (comment_id, user_id, is_liked, created_at).
When updating the plugin, the table is automatically created or updated via a version check — no need to deactivate and reactivate.

Ofte stilte spørsmål
-
How can I access another user’s page?
-
Logged-in users can access another user’s profile page by clicking on their name or avatar link within the website’s comments section.
-
How does the rating system prevent double voting?
-
Each vote sets a cookie (
weal_voted_post_{post_id}) valid for 1 year. Both the REST API and JavaScript check for existing cookies to prevent multiple votes from the same browser. -
Can I disable the comment likes feature?
-
Yes. Go to WordPress Admin Weal Profile and uncheck «Enable likes and dislikes on comments».
