Publishing your Competition

Publishing your Competition

When you’ve completed your competition setup and are ready to open for registrations you can Publish your competition.

From the Your Competitions page click the “Edit” link in the drop down menu (or use the “Edit Competition” button from the Competition Manage page).

On the Edit Competition page, click the “Publish Competition” switch (it will turn purple when active) then click the “Save Competition” button on the bottom right of this page.  Once you’ve saved your competition it is now live.

A live competition's state depends on a few settings you made when creating it:

• Competitions with "Don't show Competition on home page" will be accessible only via the vanity URL for the competition. They won't be listed on the enter.redfridgedoor.com homepage.
• Competitions with an Entries Open date set for the future will show their competition landing page with a countdown to registrations opening. They will not take registrations until that date and time is reached.
• Competitions with no Entries Open set or where the date/time has passed will allow registrations from their landing page.

If you need to unpublish your competition for any reason,simply return to the competition Edit page and click on the “Publish Competition” switch again, then click ”Save Competition” to unpublish.

Once live you can distribute your competition Vanity URL as the link for where your competitors can go to register for the competition.

Congratulations, you’re now live and and ready to take registrations!
