New features: Custom level names + Unlock courses at levels

We just shipped some new gamification features to make things more fun! • Custom level names: Personalize your group by naming your levels. • Unlock courses at levels: Unlock a course or something of value when members hit a high level. • Leaderboard redesign: Now you can see your progress and what you can unlock as you level up. Watch the Loom video below for more info on how it works and how to set it up for yourself. This is an experimental feature we're playing with, so we want to hear your feedback! Try it out for yourself and let us know what you think?

@Timothy Shieff To my understanding: The purpose of gamification is to increase engagement (through incentives) which increases the value of the community. Community is generally the most valuable part of a group. A more engaged community means a more valuable group (and product). Let's say you have Jeff Bezos in this Skool Community, but he never posts or engages with others. He does however watch all the course modules, and logs in monthly to watch the Office Hours Q&A recordings. Is he valuable as a person? Absolutely, no doubt. Is he valuable to the Skool community? No... And the rewards, I think, is to specifically reward the people who choose to increase the value of the community through engaging, collaborating, sharing, etc. And incentives is generally what drives human behavior. "Working in the shadows" is completely fine (it's what I do), but you're not increasing the value of the community, relatively speaking. If you give people points for watching course modules, it completely removes/undos the incentive to post and engage with others, which was the entire purpose of gamification. (These are just my thoughts. I'm happy to be corrected by Sam, Sid, Nick if I'm making any wrong claims about the goal/purpose etc.)

Re-order modules - new upload at top

Wondering if we can have a way to re-order modules easily so new content added is top? Case in point, I upload group call recordings and would prefer most recent at the top. Small point but right now the only way seems to be moving up a step and the more that are added the more awkward it becomes.

@Mark Ladson I think the Skool team is working on rolling out a feature to make this more efficient. In the meanwhile you can do the following to save yourself some time and frustration: - Instead of 'add content > new module' simply 'duplicate' the top existing module. - Edit the duplicated module by changing the description, video link, title, etc - Now you only gotta click 'move up' once to have it at the top.
