Leaderboard Block

The Leaderboard block shows members a ranked list of who has earned the most points over a chosen time period. It also highlights the logged-in member’s own rank, even when they are not in the visible top entries.

In the block editor, click +, search for “Leaderboard”, and insert the Gamification Leaderboard block.
