Is there a way to do this ? This is needed for the backend to automatically update user badges (e.g. for a forum or for blog posts?
You can’t add a beforeInsert datahook to any collection in either of the Wix Blog or Wix Forum apps.
You can see this yourself if you go to your site structure and click on the cog settings icon for any of the Wix Blog or Wix Forum collections and go through the add a datahook section.
You can only add badges as per the Wix API Reference.

Okay, thanks. I just thought there might be a workaround that the community might know that I dont. My client wants to have an automatic badge for every member of either the blog or forum when a certain member gets a certain no. of followers or likes (e.g. most popular blogger/expert badge), or when a user has posted a certain no. of posts (e.g. expert badge), instead of manually updating these or monitoring the posts or activities within a forum or blog.
