You find your own score and community rank in your profile:

1. Click on My profile on the top left of the screen.

2. Underneath your profile picture, you will see your rank in the community as well as the number of points you've earned.

If you can't see this area in your profile, or you can't see points next to any user's name, this means that the community administrator has turned point scoring and leaderboards off for that community.

The leader board can be found by selecting View leaderboard anywhere you see a leaderboard list, such as on the left side of challenges, or on the community home page.

You can choose to view the leaderboard for the whole community, or you can use the Show drop-down field to show who is earning the most points in a specific challenge.

If you click on a user's name anywhere in the community, you'll be able to see a summary of their profile, including the number of points they have and their community rank.

If you want to see their profile page, click View full profile.

In a user's full profile, you will be able to see the list of ideas and comments that they've posted, as well as a list of any users that they're following or any challenges or blog posts to which they're subscribed.
