XenLevel grew one feature at a time, and the seams showed: XP that could be lost when two awards landed together, reactions that could be farmed, ranks that depended on the order you created them, and pages with a look of their own. Version 2.0.3 rebuilds it on XenForo itself. Every 1.x feature is still there, and your ranks, achievements, quests, stamps and shop move over on their own.

An XP engine you can trust
- XP is written atomically: two awards at the same moment can no longer overwrite each other, and a double click in the shop can no longer deliver twice for one payment.
- Ranks follow XP thresholds, so adding or reordering ranks never breaks rank-up alerts or rank groups. Removing XP in the Admin CP lowers the rank, with a reason the member sees in their history.
- Reactions can no longer be farmed, negative reactions and direct messages earn nothing, and posts approved by a moderator now earn XP.
- Real daily caps per XP source in one grid, and deleted or spam-cleaned content can give its XP back.
- Rank user groups stay in sync, deleted and merged members are handled, and recalculation runs as a resumable background job.
Achievements that show the way
Every locked achievement now shows how far the member is ("412 / 1,000 posts") and how rare it is ("Unlocked by 2.3% of members", with Rare and Legendary labels), while secret achievements stay hidden until unlocked. My progress shows what comes next: the next rank, the three closest achievements, active quests and recent XP. The leaderboard has All time, This month and This week with a pinned Your position row, quests show when they reset and can now be monthly, profiles get a Level tab, and purchases ask for confirmation.XenLevel everywhere in your forum
- New user criteria: total XP earned, rank, number of achievements and specific achievements. Use them in trophies, user group promotions, notices, widgets and ads.
- Members choose which XenLevel alerts they get in their alert preferences, and rank-ups and achievements can appear in What's new.
- Most XP on the members page, XP and achievements in Tools > Statistics, and real permissions, including a dedicated admin permission.
- Rank badges on messages cost zero extra queries, and the public stylesheet went from 39 KB to 12 KB. It follows light, dark and third-party styles.
An Admin CP that feels like the core
A member XP sheet to adjust XP with a reason, grant or revoke achievements and stamps, and refund purchases. A rank ladder you edit inline, with a ladder generator and preview. Tabbed forms with a live preview of badges and ranks, XP log and purchases pages, a health check on the dashboard, and XML import and export for achievements and stamp sets.Try it
XenLevel 2.0 runs on the demo board: log in with demo / demo2026 and open the leaderboard, then My progress and the achievements page.Upgrading
The update is free for every licence within its 12 months of updates: download 2.0.3 from your account. Back up, then install the archive over any 1.x version from the Admin CP. Members who already reached a rank receive its user group, Level reached criteria are converted automatically (take a quick look at them if your ranks were created out of order), and existing XenLevel alerts move to the new alert type, which members can now switch off.XenLevel on the store, with the full list of changes in the version history.
