Hello all, first post here, so, my question is pretty simple, I would like to know how I can get the badges from my Google Maps statistiques ? Like the badges about Local Guides Level or Photos Views for exemple. Is it a bug or something I have to do to get them ?
Thanks
Hello @Perronchrist
Those are two sets of different badges. The badges you get on the forum Local Guide Connect are strictly about the forum (getting likes to your content, posting new content, liking other content etc.) so it’s normal you don’t see your badge from Google maps here. I hope it helps you.
Hi @Perronchrist . Thanks for reaching out and welcome to Local Guides Connect. As @Melissa_Langlois kindly explained to you, the badges that your earn on Google Maps will be shown on your Google Maps Profile. Badges on Connect are different: they are related to your activity on the platform (you receive a badge, for example, for have writing good content, answering questions, and to likes given/received, etc).
As you are new, maybe you’ll like to read this post Your guide to Connect with some useful tips about Connect. Fell free to introduce yourself using our monthly thread: Introduce yourself - May 2020.
If you have other questions, please tag your post in our “How-to” Section.
Please note that I’m accepting @Melissa_Langlois reply as a solution once she provided you the correct answer.
Greetings,

In each Local Guides Connect profile there is a link to view each guide profile on Google Maps. The badges obtained as a local guide in Google Maps are different from the badges obtained as a member of this Google Guides Connect forum. Badges on Google Maps are related to the number of photos and videos published, the number of reviews published, the number of characters in those reviews, with sites and routes added, with answers to questions. In Google Guides Connect there are badges by number of publications, by number of likes given and / or received, for solving questions, among others. You can read this publication to find out more: https://bit.ly/3bRNsDQ @Perronchrist
@Melissa_Langlois @AlexandreCampbell @Robert24 Oh wow that was a quick reply :), thanks you all for the explications, it’s really more clear for me now !
Have a good day all ;).
@Perronchrist The image you shared is outdated. At the beginning of Local Guides Connect, some Google Maps badges used to be shown here, but they are separated now.
@Perronchrist you have published only 73 photographs but they are excellent and very useful for those who see them, I congratulate you for it and I would like you to continue like this, don’t worry about publishing thousands of photographs but rather publishing great quality, congratulations and go ahead!
Hi @Perronchrist ,
Welcome to Connect! I am glad to see that you have found quick support from our wonderful Local Guides. 
Since you are new, you might want to take a look at the links @AlexandreCampbell suggested, or the following one, which I hope you will find useful: How to choose a topic for your Connect post.
I also wanted to inform you that I relabeled your post to have it in the How-to Section, where other members might take advantage of the helpful answers you received.
Thank you @Robert24 :), it’s really appreciate. Yeah I had a lot of fun 3 years ago in Google Map, by taking photos of places that had not :P. I reached over 2 125 000 views for 77 photos ^^. I enjoyed exploring the city maps and placing multiples points of interest over the places that I wanted to visites or that I already visited :o. That was a good hunting 
haha.
Thank for the link and the pin of my post @Giu_DiB :). I will take a look over that !
