Participant Views

Display individual result details with the Participant Views either as a pop-up from within a published list, or from a direct URL. Create different views for different purposes, or adjust one view with filters to match what's required.

Preview a Participant View and verify the direct URL by entering a bib and click on 'Open tab'. 

General settings

Activate the view and enable Live Update to allow an instant update of information when having the Participant View open, both in the pop-up and the direct view.

The name of the view is only used internally for better overview if there are several different views and to select a view in Tabs.

Provide a meaningful and concise URL. This is used as an extension for the direct URL and must not be reused in either tabs or participant views.

Lastly, define a date range during which the view shall be active. 

Elements

The elements contain all the information that shall be displayed. In here, place and structure different types of information to make up for the participant view. 

Drag & Drop to change the order of single elements by clicking on the left edge of an element line.
Select one or more elements by ticking the respective boxes. This opens a tool bar and allows to copy, cut and paste elements across different Participant Views and even across different event files. Copied or cut elements will be pasted above the currently selected element. Further, selecting multiple elements at once simplifies deleting, unindenting or indenting several elements.

Indenting certain elements makes the first element of a "higher" level the parent element. All display filters such as the 'Active selection' or the 'Show If' apply to children of an element accordingly. 

Type

The type defines what sort of information is shown and how it is structured. Select from different options.

Structure - structure elements define how data and information is organized.

Content - content elements fully customize the Participant View with any personal, or event related data. 

Adv. Content - advanced content uses pre-set options. For all advanced content elements an optional checkbox to Embed in box with header under 'More Details' simplifies the setup by displaying the element in a box, with a pre-defined multilingual header. Most advanced content elements require settings from the 'More Details'.

Active

Define whether an element shall be active or not. Further, distinguish between availability of an element in a popup view or direct access only.

More Details

Apply a date range under 'More Details' during which the element is active. Further, display fields dynamically, e.g. based on input in participant data, by entering any expression as a filter under 'Show If'.

Lastly, find a range of pre-set CSS styling options at the bottom. These may vary between element styling and title styling options. Element always refers to the data of this line, title refers to the title only. The title comes either from the 'Data' column or the title entered in the 'More Details' section, depending on the used element type.

Map

If the contest has a GPX track set in the Contests settings it is possible to enable a tracking map in the Participant View. Enable map tracking with Map as the element type. At the current time, tracking is not available for multi-day races. For spectators to get real-time progress updates without refreshing their browsers, make sure to check the Live Update option.

GPX Track & Split Alignment

The tracking map uses your defined splits to accurately show the athlete's progress along the course. It is important to upload a GPX route that is close to the listed length of the contest; otherwise, the visual placement of the participant will not be entirely accurate. If your race includes multiple laps, they must be fully drawn out in the GPX file.

If your timing points include GPS coordinates that fall near the GPX track, the map will automatically snap the split location to those exact coordinates. If no GPS coordinates are provided for a split, the system will place it based on the cumulative distance along the GPX file.

The map's tracking behavior relies heavily on the splits algorithm selected in your splits setup:

  • V1 Algorithm: Progress predictions will not be available until the participant passes the first split on the course.

  • V2 Algorithm: Tracking begins instantly as soon as the participant crosses the start line.

 

Display and Customization

If favorites are enabled for the event, the map can display up to 50 favorited athletes simultaneously alongside the primary participant being viewed.

Each participant is represented by a bubble icon. By default, the map displays the participant's Bib as the visual label, FirstLastname as the tooltip, and applies a default filter of status=0 to ensure only active, valid participants are displayed. You can fully customize these fields and filters in the advanced settings.

The GPX route line color is defined by the Contest Color.
