Badge configuration

Badges in Award Force allow you to visually highlight certain entries. For example, in a gallery, you might display badges to indicate which submissions earned Gold, Silver, or Bronze awards.

Badges in judging 

When badges are applied to judging score sets—such as VIP or Qualifying modes—judges can easily filter entries using badges.

Judges can:

  • Click a badge to filter and view all entries with that badge applied
  • Click Advanced in the search bar and select a badge from the Badge drop-down to filter by a specific badge

  • Entries must be tagged with one or more tags for a badge to appear.
  • Image badges can be .jpg, .jpeg, or .png files.
  • Recommended size for an image badge is 100 x 100px.
