Organising an event
An event — a rally or meet-up, say — can be made of one or more roadbooks prepared by the team that organises it, then gives registered participants controlled access to them. Participation can be free, or scored using the Reader's Competition mode.
The event, step by step
1 Preparation
To create the event, open Event management → New event and set the title, description, start/end dates, an optional logo, and the participant categories (e.g. SUV / modified vehicles / experts).
To build the team, use the Organizers section — search users by name and add co-organisers. The owner (and admins) control the organiser list, the visibility and deletion; co-organisers manage the content and can co-edit the event's roadbooks, with a soft lock keeping it to one editor at a time.
To gather the routes, in the Roadbooks section attach your own roadbooks and set each one's participation mode (Free = follow with no scoring · Rally scoring = ranked by rally rules). A private roadbook stays the event's own: its participants see it — from the date you set under it, if you set one.
To chain the routes, under each roadbook tick the ones it offers at its last note, each with a short label (“A”, “Easy”…): the participant picks one there and carries on in the same run, and sees one report at the very end — while each roadbook is still scored on its own.
2 Publish
To make the event visible, turn on Public — it then appears in the public events list with its own presentation page. Participants and organisers also see the event's private roadbooks there, not only the public ones.
3 Join
To let people in, generate a join code in the Participants section and share it — a signed-in user joins by entering it, which unlocks the event's private roadbooks once they are active. To manage the roster, the participants page lists who joined (searchable) and lets you remove someone.
4 Run
To follow a roadbook, participants open it in the Roadbook Reader — in Trip mode to follow the route, or Competition mode to be scored.
To follow them live, open the Live map: it shows where each participant is whenever they navigate one of the event’s roadbooks, on any day — only if they agreed (asked once for the event), only to the organisers, and only their last position.
5 Results
To rank the teams there is nothing to collect: each Competition run sends its result to the Ranking of its roadbook by itself. A run finished offline also shows its result as a QR, which the desk can scan.
