Badge Library

Badge library is a place where a creator can create new badges and edit badges s/he has created earlier (badges s/he has created her/himself or badges created by others). All badges created by the organisation are listed in the library. In the library, a user can view badges, search for badges with different search criteria, and make changes to badges. 

Organising badges

Badges can be sorted either by modify date (Order by last modified) or by the title (Order by title). They can also be organised using categories.

Creating a new category

1. Click the cross next to'All' under the 'Filter' field
2. Name the new category (NB! You can already add badges to this category by ticking the appropriate boxes)

Adding a category to a badge

1. Click the badge to which you want to add categories.
2. Add a category to the Categories field, and click Enter after which you will see the category under the Categories heading. Note! If the category has already been added to another badge, the system suggests it automatically.
3. Once the categories have been created, click the Close button at the end.

Removing a category from a badge

1. Click the badge from which you wish to remove categories,
2. Click the small cross next to the category’s name,
3. Once the categories have been removed, click the Close button at the end.

Searching for badges

Badge searches can be carried out in different ways:

• According to one issuing organisation,
• With keywords by typing a word into the Filterfield. The search is performed immediately as you type in the word,
• By categories defined by creators. Categories are types of keywords, and badges are classified into topics with them. A creator can create new categories when needed, and one badge can be added to several categories.

  If categories are added to badges, the Badge library page displays by default all created badges and the category All is selected. To search for badges according to one category, click the appropriate category, for example Skills, and as it becomes active, only the badges categorised with the word “Skills” are displayed.
