Tips❤️Just as you can use Font Awesome font icons for premium member badges, you can also use them for any permission circle badges, or activity level badges (instead of titles). For purposes of this tip, we will be creating a badge for Activity Level Titles, which can be set via Recipes. First, select the font icon you want from the FontAwesome list of icons, here .

Blog Post CommentGreat article, Rosemary! I'd just add this: to 1. - No matter HOW you define success, your community must be visible in order to be successful.

We've seen a number of communities try to set up "premium features" on formerly-free features.
