A directory is a list of events/leagues for your players to access event/league portals (as shown below).
Listing directories can be incredibly useful for golf clubs, associations, and tours. These directories are typically embedded or linked into a club, tour, or association website.
If you have a club website provider like Club Essential, Jonas, MembersFirst, ClubSystems Group, and ForeTees, we highly suggest contacting our support team to enable our SSO integration. When doing this, we will work with your website provider to enable the integration and build your directories into your club website.
In this article, we will discuss how to create and manage your directories.
Creating Directories:
To create your directories, follow these instructions:
Go to Customer Center > Directories and Registration > Directories of Events, Leagues, & Trips (as shown below).
All your events and leagues will be included here. By default, you will always have the "All Leagues and Events" Directory. However, you may want to create multiple directories instead(e.g., "Men's Events," "Ladies Events"). By doing this, events and leagues can be categorized and listed separately.
(Note: You can also use the Registration Directory by going to Customer Center > Directories and Registration. This directory will only include leagues and events that have enabled Event and League Registration. Keep in mind that events/leagues that use registration can still be placed in other directories.)Click "New Directory."
Name the directory and click "Next."
Change the automatically generated Directory GGID to something easier for your players to remember (if you'd like).
Enter an optional description which will be displayed in the directory.
Optionally hide the number of golfers registered for the event (if using Event Registration).
Set the Default Filters. This filter will narrow the results down to:
My Registration: Event the visitor is registered for.
Registration Open: Events with registration opens.
Past Events: Shows events in the past.
Upcoming Events: Shows upcoming events.
Lottery Events: (Lottery Features must be enabled)
Select the events and/or leagues to be placed in the directory (as shown below).
You can alternatively select the category to use for the directory (as shown below).
When selecting a category, any event within that category will be displayed on that directory. If a new event is added to the selected category, it will automatically be added to the directory. You can select multiple categories for one directory.
Select the Default Portal View. The condensed view will display more events, while the detailed view will display additional registration information (if event registration is used). Keep in mind that the player can change views while viewing a directory.
Click "Save."
You can also add a league/event to a directory by going to Event/League > Event/League Profile > Directories and Registration (as shown below).
Select the directory or directories that you'd like this event/league to be listed.
Once your directories are set up, you can now display them in your club website. For instructions on this, Click Here.
Sharing Directories:
After your directories are set up, you can share them with your players. If you are using our SSO integration with your club website, we suggest reaching out to our support team. They will work with your club website provider to build the directories into your club website.
If you are not using our SSO integration, go to Customer Center > Directories & Registration > Directories of Leagues & Events. Click "Edit and Share" for the directory you'd like to share. Then select the "Share" tab (shown below).
You will have the following options:
Season: By default, the current season is selected. When a season is selected, only events assigned to that season are shown in the directory. If you wish to show another season or events in all seasons or events without an assigned season, select "All Seasons."
Advanced: Set some of the filtering and customization capabilities available for the directory iframes with the Advanced settings (as shown below).
Hide Events/Leagues without Leaderboard: By default, directory filters and events without leaderboards will be shown. Check this option to hide events/leagues without a leaderboard.
Ascending Date Order: The default sort order is descending by first round date. To display the results in ascending date order, check this option.
Hide Filters: By default, event/league filters are displayed. To not display the filters, check this options.
Remove Directory Header: The name of the directory is displayed with a line below it. To not display the directory header, check this option.
You can then share the directory via the following options:
Link: The link available is a GGID link. Players accessing the directory through this link will be logged in with a GGID.
iFrame: You can place the iFrame code into another website to embed the directory. Players can then view the embedded directory on the other website.
iFrame size: Select the iFrame size. For a Dynamic width, select custom and enter 100% in the width and nothing in the height.
Viewing Directories:
Events and leagues are listed in the directory by date. If Event Registration is used, the event status will be listed on the left (as shown below).
To access an event portal, click the event name or "View." If the pairings and results are available, a link for those will be listed as well.
You can change the views (condensed or detailed) and search for events (as shown below).
For directories with a large list of events, you can also filter by event status or date (as shown below).
If collecting payments during registration, registration information will also be listed using the detailed view (as shown below).
Updating Directories:
Season-to-season, you will need to take some steps to update your directories. If your directories are connected to specific categories, you can go to Customer Center > Season Management > Seasons and mark the new season as the current season. All events that are 1) in the selected category and 2) included in the new season will now be visible in the directory. No other action is required.
If you have manually selected the events and leagues to be placed in your directories, you will need to uncheck the previous season's events and leagues and select the new season's events and leagues.
To do this, Go to Customer Center > Directories and Registration > Directories of Leagues and Events. Edit the directory that needs to be updated.
Uncheck your previous season's events/leagues and check the upcoming season's events/leagues in your current Directories.
