We have developed the CITES WordPress Pilot – Badge Issuing system using WPBadger WordPress plugin @ badges.illinois.edu  for the sole purpose of Issuing Badges – This is a PILOT system which may or may not be wiped out in the future.

We can create an instance of our site for each ‘unit’ wishing to issue badges (i.e badges.illinois.edu/networking or badges.cites.illinois.edu/cites-ats). Check out our Getting Started page or Email us for more information: badges-support@illinois.edu

It is setup like any WordPress site, with one HUGE exception, this should not be treated like a blog, there should be NO blog posts made to this system. Instead of blog posts, you can use the WordPress Admin interface to Create a Badge and to Award a Badge.
