Aurora: View badges from the member profile

On a member's profile page, the most recently earned badge in 5 badge sets (these are often badge sets that an admin has chosen to feature) are displayed at the top right.

To see a full list of earned badges, click View All Badges. Badges are grouped in badge sets that contain related badges, often reflecting linear progress in a particular achievement. For example, a badge set titled “Likes” could have badges in it that reflect a member receiving 10 likes, 20 likes, 50 likes, 100 likes, and so on. Badges in a set could also be related in a different way that does not require a progression, such as in a badge set called “Helping Hand,” in which there is a badge for creating a post, a badge for replying to a post, a badge for receiving a like, and a badge for having an accepted solution.

All achieved badges are public to other community members. Yet-to-be-earned badges may or may not be visible depending on settings admins have chosen.
