# How to Configure Points and Daily Limits

# How to Configure Points and Daily Limits

## Overview
When Gamification is enabled, SuperPath awards points to your learners for the actions they take — completing content, Events, Forms, Pathways and Roadmap levels, signing in, commenting, and so on. Each of these actions comes with a default point value, and you can tune those values (and set a daily cap) to reflect what your organisation wants to reward most.

This article covers how to adjust the points awarded per action and the daily limits. For a breakdown of which actions earn points, see *What Points Are Awarded*.

## Before you start
Points can only be configured when **Gamification is enabled** for your account. If it's switched off, the configuration table won't appear. See *How to Enable Gamification* to turn it on first.

## How to configure points and daily limits
1. Go to **Settings → Gamification**.
2. With **Enable gamification on your account** turned on, find the **Gamification configuration** section and click **show more** to expand it.
3. Review the table. Each row is a learning action, shown in the **What action was completed?** column. The rows are pre-set — you edit the values on each one, but you can't add or remove actions.
4. In the **Points awarded** column, set how many points that action earns. Type a number or use the **-** and **+** buttons to adjust it (the minimum is 0).
5. In the **Daily limit** column, set how many times per day that action can award points to a user. Type a number or use the **-** and **+** buttons (the minimum is 0). Leave it at **0** for no daily cap.
6. Click **Save** in the editing bar at the top of the page to store your changes.

## Things to keep in mind
* The action rows are fixed. You can change the points and daily limit on each existing action, but you can't create new actions or delete the ones provided.
* **Daily limit** caps how many times per day a single action awards points to a learner — for example, a daily limit of 3 means the learner stops earning points from that action after the third time in a day. A daily limit of **0** means there's no cap.
* Changes are staged until you click **Save** — the values won't apply until then.
* Changes to point values only affect future actions. They aren't applied retrospectively to points already earned. If you need historic points recalculated, contact our Support Team.

## FAQs
**Can I add my own actions to earn points?**
No. The list of actions is fixed. You can change the points and daily limit for each one, but you can't add or remove actions.

**What does a daily limit of 0 mean?**
It means there's no daily cap on that action — the learner can earn points from it as many times as they trigger it in a day.

**Will changing a point value update points people have already earned?**
No. New values only apply to actions completed after you save. To have earlier points recalculated, contact our Support Team.

**Why can't I see the configuration table?**
The table only appears when Gamification is enabled. Turn on **Enable gamification on your account** first, then click **show more** under **Gamification configuration**.

## Who can do this
Only **Owners** and **Admins** can configure points and daily limits. The Gamification settings live under **Settings**, and access to all Settings pages is restricted to Owners and Admins — **Managers**, **Content Managers**, **People Managers**, **Instructors**, **Employees** and **Restricted** users can't reach them, regardless of any other permission.
