How to Earn (and Spend) Points on Kagodora

Your points balance is the heart of the Kagodora ecosystem. Points are managed by myCRED and can be earned through many activities – from reading messages and uploading images to writing journal entries, building calendars, and participating in surveys. Points can also be spent on broadcasts, image uploads, social posts, and more.

Below is the complete list of all point‑earning and point‑spending actions currently available.

🤔 Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I earn points every time I read the same message?
A: No. Points are awarded only the first time you mark a message as read.

Q: If my broadcast is rejected, do I get my points back?
A: No. Points are deducted only when the broadcast is approved and sent. If rejected, no points are taken.

Q: What are “escrowed” points from liking images?
A: When you like an image, 2 points are set aside (escrowed). They are not available in your balance until that image is used in a paid calendar. Once the image sells, the escrowed points are released to you. This encourages supporting images that may become commercially successful.

Q: Can I lose points for negative actions?
A: Currently, only the positive spending actions (upload, broadcast, social post, points→tokens) deduct points. There are no penalties for spam or bad behaviour (except admin moderation).

Q: Where do the points come from?
A: Points are awarded by the system; they are not transferred from other users. The “helpful” points, like rewards for social post likes, and royalty points all come from the platform itself.

Q: What are Anu tokens and how do I use them?
A: Anu tokens are a separate internal currency. You can convert points to tokens (costs points) and later convert tokens back to points (no fee). Tokens can also be used to mint physical products (books, apparel, decoding cards) via the Anu Bridge minting shortcode 

Please log in to mint products.

. This bridges digital points to real‑world items.

Q: How can I earn points every day?
A: Write a journal entry (20 points daily), read any new messages in your inbox, and like images to accumulate escrowed points for future release.


💡 Tips to Maximise Your Points

  • Read your inbox regularly – each new message gives 1 point.
  • Write a journal entry every day – quick 20 points.
  • Upload high‑quality images – they may receive many likes, and if they get used in calendars, you earn royalty points.
  • Be helpful – reply to messages and broadcasts; if others mark your messages “helpful”, you earn 2 points each time.
  • Participate in quiz surveys – they can give a lump sum of points.
  • Build and list calendars – when they sell, you earn 100 points plus 80% of the sale price.
  • Convert tokens strategically – if you accumulate Anu tokens, you can mint physical products or convert back to points when needed.

Kagodora Points Activity Shortcode

After posting that he engagement suit code was error free we encountered some errors with the short code being placed in the body of post text and removed the brackets to resolve the issue for now. In the process we produced a points activity element including a new page listing all the methods to earn Anu points.

Overview

The 

Please log in to see your points activity.

 shortcode gives members a clear, concise history of their points earnings and spendings that come directly from using the messaging and broadcast features of the Kagodora Engagement Suite. It displays the two most recent point transactions related to reading messages, sending broadcasts, and receiving “helpful” votes on their messages.

This shortcode is designed to sit alongside your existing myCRED wallet (which shows the total balance) and provides context for how that balance has changed through recent messaging activity.

How It Works

The shortcode queries the myCRED log table (wp_mycred_log) for the currently logged‑in user and filters only those transactions where the reference (the action type) begins with kagodora_. These references are automatically recorded by the Kagodora Engagement Suite’s myCRED hooks:

  • kagodora_read_message – awarded when a user marks a message as read.
  • kagodora_broadcast_cost – deducted when a user sends a broadcast (if a points cost is set).
  • kagodora_helpful – awarded to a message sender when another user clicks “Helpful” on their message.

Each transaction includes the date, the number of points (with a + or  sign), a human‑readable description, and – where possible – a direct link back to the original message or the admin broadcast approval screen.

What It Displays

For each of the last two transactions, the output includes:

  • Points change (e.g., +1 points or -50 points)
  • Date and time (in your WordPress site’s time format)
  • Activity description – for example:
    • “Read a message”
    • “Sent a broadcast”
    • “Your message was marked helpful”
  • Optional link – “View message” or “View approval” that takes the user directly to the relevant inbox item or admin approval page.

If no messaging‑related points activity has occurred yet, the shortcode shows a simple message: “No messaging points activity yet.”

If myCRED is not active, it shows: “Points system is not active.”

Where to Use It

The shortcode is intended to be placed on the user’s account page – the same page where the myCRED wallet is already displayed. This gives members a complete view of their points balance (from the wallet) and the specific actions that have affected it (from the activity list).

Example placement:

htmlCopyDownloadRun

   <!-- shows total points -->

Please log in to see your points activity.

<!-- shows recent messaging activity -->

You can also place it on any other page where you want to show a user their recent points activity, such as a custom dashboard or a “My Activity” page.

Customisation

The shortcode is hard‑coded to show two entries (the default). To show more or fewer, edit the plugin file and change the LIMIT 2 in the SQL query to any positive number. For example, to show the last 5 entries:

phpCopyDownload

LIMIT 5

All other output (date format, link text) can be customised by editing the kagodora_eng_points_activity_shortcode() function inside the plugin.

Benefits for Users

  • Transparency – Members see exactly why they gained or lost points from messaging actions.
  • Engagement – Seeing recent activity encourages users to read messages, send helpful feedback, and participate in broadcasts.
  • Convenience – Links directly to the message or approval screen save users from searching.
  • Integration – Works seamlessly with the existing myCRED wallet, no extra configuration needed.

Technical Notes

  • The shortcode is only available on the front‑end and only for logged‑in users.
  • It requires the myCRED plugin to be active and the Kagodora Engagement Suite’s myCRED hooks to be enabled.
  • Links assume the inbox page slug is /inbox/. If your inbox page has a different slug (e.g., /nbox/), update the home_url('/inbox/') sections in the plugin file accordingly.
  • The shortcode does not run during AJAX requests or in the admin area, so it never interferes with post saving or other admin‑side functionality.

Example Output (HTML)

htmlCopyDownloadRun

<div class="kagodora-points-activity">
  <h4>Recent Messaging Activity</h4>
  <ul>
    <li>
      <strong>+1 points</strong><br>

  </ul>
</div>

Summary

The 

Please log in to see your points activity.

 shortcode is a lightweight, informative addition that bridges the gap between the myCRED wallet and the specific actions users take within the Kagodora messaging system. It builds trust, encourages participation, and provides a seamless user experience on the account page.


The Kagodora Engagement Suit is now error free and functional.

The kagodora engagement suit plugin has been created Ray 2047 AhDo 4:64 / May 15 3:58

Updating failed. The response is not a valid JSON response.

Kagodora engagement suit has been produced but I have not created one plugin to date that works perfect first run and even when it does seem to work additions are realized and are part of testing. In this case after receiving instructions from deep seek to implement it on the site we ran into an error that prevents saving blog post. conceptualization organizing research is a process that comes before applying tools like ai or a programmer to build once it is built the testing phase and trouble shooting to resolve errors begins .


Membership engagement is key to keeping the kagodora growing designing a notification system that both tracts site activity and categorizes it fro display and distribution to members is the plan to procure, cultivate and maintain membership activity. Adding a membership message box or display board that notifies the member like the wallets displays points will also need to be created and added o the current code.

Core Framework: Kagodora Engagement & Notification Suite

We will build a single custom plugin (e.g., kagodora-engagement) that integrates with:

  • Your existing myCRED points system.
  • The PWA tracker (for user identification and session).
  • WordPress user system (for verification).
  • NASA API (as an optional event source).

The plugin will provide:

  1. Member message board / private inbox (like a lightweight BuddyPress but without bloat).
  2. Points incentives for reading, sending, and helpful replies.
  3. Notification preferences – members choose which events trigger email vs. site‑only, or off.
  4. Admin activity log (enhanced from your PWA tracker) with notification rules.
  5. Front‑end shortcodes for inbox, activity feed, and settings.
  6. NASA API integration – daily image or event alerts sent as notifications.
  7. Abridged email notifications – “You have a new message – click to read on Kagodora.”
  8. Broadcast messages – members can spend points to send a message to all members (with admin approval optional).
  9. Points for reading messages – small reward per message opened.
  10. Points for helpful comments/replies – upvoting or marking as helpful gives points.

1. Database Tables (custom, minimal)

We’ll create three custom tables:

Table NameFieldsPurpose
wp_kagodora_messagesidsender_idrecipient_id (0 = all members for broadcast), subjectcontenttype (private, broadcast, system), points_coststatus (unread, read, deleted), created_atread_atStore all messages (private & system notifications)
wp_kagodora_message_metaidmessage_idmeta_keymeta_valueFor likes, helpful flags, etc.
wp_kagodora_user_preferencesuser_idpref_key (email_notify, site_notify, events_list), pref_value (JSON or serialized)Store notification settings per user

Alternatively, we can use WordPress user meta for preferences (simpler), but custom tables are cleaner for high volume.


2. Points Integration (myCRED Hooks)

We will create custom myCRED hooks for:

  • Read message – award points when a user marks a message as read (first time only).
  • Send message – deduct points when sending a broadcast (optional for private messages).
  • Receive helpful rating – award points when a user’s comment/reply is marked “helpful” by another.
  • Daily activity – optional: points for logging in and checking inbox.

All point transactions will be logged with a reference like kagodora_message_read_{message_id}.


3. Notification Types & User Preferences

Users will be able to choose, per event type, how they want to be notified:

  • Site inbox only (message board)
  • Email only (abridged with link back)
  • Both (default)
  • Off (no notification)

Events to include:

EventTriggerDefault Setting
New private messageSomeone sends them a messageBoth
Broadcast messageAdmin or user‑sent broadcast to allSite inbox only (to avoid spam)
New post/page/productWordPress publish actionOff (admin can enable for all)
New user registrationuser_register hookOff
New comment on their postwp_insert_commentBoth
NASA daily imageDaily cron fetchOff (user must opt in)
Admin announcementAdmin creates via pluginBoth (forced for important)

Preferences stored in wp_kagodora_user_preferences as JSON.


4. Frontend Shortcodes & UI

ShortcodePurpose
kagodora inboxDisplays user’s message inbox, with tabs for unread/read/sent. Includes reply, mark as read, delete, and “broadcast” button (if user has enough points).
kagodora_activity_feedShows a global feed of recent site activities (new posts, broadcasts, etc.) – similar to the admin dashboard but public.
kagodora notification settingsForm for users to adjust their per‑event preferences.
kagodora_points_summaryDisplay current points balance and recent transactions related to messaging.

All shortcodes will be fully responsive and work inside the existing Kagodora PWA.


5. Admin Settings Panel

A new sub‑menu under Kagodora → Engagement with:

  • Points settings: amounts for read, send broadcast, helpful reply.
  • Notification rules: which events are active globally, default preferences for new users.
  • NASA API key field and cron schedule (daily at a chosen time).
  • Broadcast approval: require admin approval for user‑sent broadcasts (toggle).
  • Email template editor for abridged notifications (using placeholders: {{subject}}{{link}}, etc.).

6. Email Notifications (Abridged Strategy)

Email will be a teaser, not the full content. Example:

Subject: New message on Kagodora from @JohnDoe
Body:
You have a new message in your Kagodora inbox.
Subject: “Meetup tomorrow?”
Snippet: “Hi, would you like to meet tomorrow at the…”
👉 Read full message and reply on Kagodora

This drives traffic back to the site, preserves engagement, and reduces email complexity.


7. NASA API Integration

We will create a scheduled event (once daily) that fetches:

  • Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) – send as a system notification to all users who opted in.
  • Asteroid close approach data – optional, could be a weekly digest.

The notification will be a special type = 'nasa' message in the inbox, with a link to the NASA site and an image embed (if PWA supports).

Users can toggle this preference in their settings.


8. Points for Reading & Helpful Replies

  • Reading a message (first time only): award e.g., +1 point. Prevent multiple awards by checking read_at timestamp and a meta flag.
  • Marking a reply as helpful: in the inbox, each message can have a “👍 Helpful” button. Clicking it awards +2 points to the author of the reply and deducts nothing from the reader (or optionally deducts 1 point from the giver – we can configure).

We’ll use myCRED’s mycred_add function.


9. Workflow for Broadcast Messages (Cost Points)

  • User clicks “Send Broadcast” in inbox.
  • Check if user has sufficient points (e.g., 50 points).
  • Show a form: subject, content, and optional “Request admin approval” checkbox (if enabled).
  • If approval required, message goes to pending status, admin approves/rejects from admin panel.
  • If no approval or approved, message inserted with recipient_id = 0, points deducted.
  • All active users receive it in their inbox.

10. Integration with Existing Plugins

  • myCRED – points hooks.
  • Your PWA tracker – reuse user session, maybe extend kagodora_pwa_tracker to also log message events.
  • Image upload & gallery – no direct integration but can be notified when new images uploaded (by hooking into the upload process).

  3. getCurrentTime() rewritten to exactly match the plugin’s logic (using totalSeconds and cascading rollovers).
  4. State object now uses ahta, ahsa, ahgo, ahdo, ray, timestamp (instead of shu, godo, do). The digital display and the internal variables now correctly map to these names.
  5. The canvas drawing and the rest of the page (gallery, journal, tools, login) are untouched.
  6. The save/load endpoints (/save_time.php) should still work; they now store/retrieve the same fields as the plugin.

Now both mathor.ca (standalone) and the WordPress Kagodora plugin use identical time calculations. The next step is to ensure the Node.js app (the original) also matches; but for the PHP‑based 


Many updates have been implemented here at Kagodora.com and its time to update the time sequence so that its format can be copied to other sites like Bakaee.com that is next up on the schedule for updating and connecting to the kagodora network.


after many hours of building plugins including a PWA for the kagodora, a popup disclaimer for the PWA tracker we built we finally got technical aid from the programer who got the app back up and is also promising to zip the website up so I can gain access to the original code and begin to work on the interrogations that will synchronize the old with the new code and upgrade the current app available on apple and google.


After flushing the cach did not work we disconnected it all together and turns out litespeed could not catch the code and stop it from running.

Instructions For Safari or Google (may work the same on other browsers) 1. Go to kagodora.com 2. If the browser prompts you to download the website to your home screen then follow the instructions. 3. If the browser does not prompt you to download the website to your home screen then go to the top right and click the 3 dots and scroll down until you see “Add to home screen” click it then it will take you to another screen where it will prompt you to install. Click install wait a miute and you will see a pop up stating the install is complete. Go to your home screen and look for the kagodora suit icon.


In the process of trying to convert the the website to ios and google app codes the process temporarily set the mathor.org kado back 40 rays promoting an urgency to produce the next best thing a PWA that will allow users to download the website and use it on their mobile phones like an app. Downloading a plugin like Super Progressive Web Apps is marketed as a tool to make the PWA conversions seamlessly easy.

After entering the settings and clicking save I got an error message. Its hard to find plugins that will work with custom code and our websire is over 75% custom code. We will keep plugin away “This page isn’t working kagodora.com is currently unable to handle this request. HTTP ERROR 500”

After flushing the cach and updating the php we are still getting errors. I may have to write a custom PWA plugin to wrap my plugin as it appears to be a custom plugin in issue. Perhpas there are plugins or apps that work better with custom code? There has been a critical error on this website. Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions. If you continue to have problems, please try the support forums. Learn more about troubleshooting WordPress.


While attempting to access files on the main server as part of the process of connecting the original Counter with the current update I noticed a reset of the Kado back to ray 2014 from 2045. This occurred around 9:30 Gregorian time 5:55 Kado.

My operating system out dated not able to download filezila or use the ssh directly.


The Architecture – One‑Way Sync (Original → WordPress)

Original Kagodora App (DigitalOcean)
         │
         │ (REST API or shared database)
         ▼
WordPress Plugin (Hostinger)
         │
         │ (WordPress REST API)
         ▼
Mobile App (iOS/Android)
  • Original app remains the master – it calculates time, increments rings, etc.
  • WordPress plugin becomes a read‑only mirror (or syncs periodically).
  • Mobile app can read from either (recommend reading from original for speed, but can also read from WordPress as a backup).

How to Sync: Two Simple Methods

Method 1 – Original App Exposes a REST Endpoint (Cleanest)

If you can add a small API endpoint to your original Kagodora code (even a 10‑line PHP file or Node.js route), the WordPress plugin can call it every minute or on page load.

Example endpoint on original app (https://original.kagodora.com/api/current-time):

jsonCopyDownload

{
  "ahta": 3,
  "ahsa": 45,
  "ahgo": 12,
  "ahdo": 2,
  "ray": 2009,
  "ring": 6,
  "turn": 45,
  "timestamp": 1747123456
}

Then in your WordPress plugin, add a function that fetches this data and updates the database:

phpCopyDownload

function kagodora_sync_from_original() {
    $response = wp_remote_get('https://original.kagodora.com/api/current-time');
    if (is_wp_error($response)) return;
    $data = json_decode(wp_remote_retrieve_body($response), true);
    if (!$data) return;
    
    global $wpdb;
    $table = $wpdb->prefix . 'kagodora_state';
    $wpdb->update($table, [
        'ahta' => $data['ahta'],
        'ahsa' => $data['ahsa'],
        'ahgo' => $data['ahgo'],
        'ahdo' => $data['ahdo'],
        'ray' => $data['ray'],
        'ahreienqo' => $data['ring'],
        'updated' => current_time('mysql')
    ], ['id' => 1]);
}

Then call this function via WordPress cron every minute:

phpCopyDownload

add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_kagodora_sync', 'kagodora_sync_from_original');
if (!wp_next_scheduled('kagodora_hourly_sync')) {
    wp_schedule_event(time(), 'hourly', 'kagodora_hourly_sync');
}
add_action('kagodora_hourly_sync', 'kagodora_sync_from_original');

Method 2 – Shared Database (Only if Both Apps Can Access the Same DB)

If your original app and WordPress can both connect to the same MySQL database (e.g., original app uses its own DB, but you grant WordPress read access), then WordPress can read the time directly from the original app’s tables. This is faster but requires database permissions.


What About the Mobile App?

The mobile app (which we will build) can:

  • Option A (recommended) – Call the original app’s API directly for the fastest, most stable time.
  • Option B – Call the WordPress REST API (which mirrors the original). This keeps everything inside WordPress but adds one extra hop.

I recommend Option A – the mobile app talks directly to your original DigitalOcean app. That gives you the same stability and performance as the original.

My next step is to access digital ocean and retreave the coe copy it to agent 1 take to update the code and explore other options for updating the exiting app.


Issue Summary

The Kagodora KaDo time system exhibited two critical problems:

  1. Ring (AhReIEnGo) did not advance correctly
    • The plugin stored a manual ring value (ahreienqo) in the database, but the front‑page display computed the ring from ray using an incorrect starting point (ray 2009 = ring 1).
    • The correct timeline requires ring 6 to begin at ray 1801, with ray 2009 being the 208th ray of ring 6, and ring 7 starting at ray 2161.
  2. Front‑end time reset to a future value on refresh
    • The JavaScript used a static updated timestamp from the database that never changed after a “Save Current Time” operation.
    • Without updating the reference timestamp, each page refresh added the elapsed time since the original save, causing the displayed time to jump ahead of real time.

Root Causes

  • Ring math error: totalRings = floor((ray - 2009)/360) + 1 assumed epoch at ray 2009, but the real epoch starts at ray 1801 (ring 6).
  • Missing timestamp update: The AJAX save handler did not refresh the updated column. The JavaScript also did not reset its internal state.timestamp after a successful save.
  • Conflicting data sources: The database stored ahreienqo separately from the computed ring, causing potential inconsistency between admin settings and front‑end display.

Remedies Applied

1. Corrected Ring Calculation

In PHP (helper function):

phpCopyDownload

function mathorian_kagodora_compute_ring($ray) {
    return 6 + floor(($ray - 1801) / 360);
}

In JavaScript (mirrored logic):

javascriptCopyDownload

function computeRing(ray) {
    let ring = 6 + Math.floor((ray - 1801) / 360);
    return ring < 1 ? 1 : ring;
}

Now ray 1801 → ring 6, ray 2161 → ring 7, etc.

2. Unified Ring Source

  • The front‑page AhReIEnGo display now always calls computeRing(ray) – no longer relies on a stored value.
  • The admin settings page shows the ring as read‑only, computed from the current ray.
  • When saving any time update (via “Save Current Time” or admin form), the ahreienqo column is automatically set to the computed ring. This keeps the database consistent without allowing manual override.

3. Fixed Timestamp Drift

In the AJAX save handler (PHP):

phpCopyDownload

$wpdb->update($table, compact('ahta','ahsa','ahgo','ahdo','ray','ahreienqo'), ['id'=>1]);
$wpdb->update($table, ['updated' => current_time('mysql')], ['id' => 1]);

In JavaScript (saveCurrentTime function):

javascriptCopyDownload

fetch(ajaxUrl, { method: 'POST', body: params })
    .then(res => {
        if (res.ok) {
            state.timestamp = Date.now() / 1000; // reset local reference
        }
    });

Now every “Save Current Time” operation updates both the database updated column and the JavaScript state.timestamp, so the elapsed time calculation starts fresh from that moment.

Outcome

  • Ring increments correctly every 360 rays, matching the intended calendar (ring 6 from ray 1801, ring 7 from 2161, etc.).
  • Front‑end time persists accurately across page refreshes and browser restarts.
  • Admin settings and front page remain in sync – the ring is always derived from the ray, eliminating conflicting values.
  • “Set Time / Calibrate” and “Save Current Time” buttons now fully respect the corrected math and update the reference timestamp.

Next Steps

  • Monitor the system for any further drift, especially across long periods without updates.
  • Consider adding a server‑side cron job that automatically saves the current time every day to keep the database timestamp fresh even if the front‑end is not visited.
  • Document the new ring formula for future reference.
