Info sections: your event page content

Where they live

The Info sections card is on your event's main Edit event page in the director dashboard. Each section is a row with its own read-preview, edit, hide, and delete actions, and custom sections can be reordered by dragging.

The Description section

Every event has a Description. It's always the first tab, its title is fixed, and it can't be hidden, moved, or deleted. It's where you tell runners what makes the race special: the course, the vibe, why it exists. A description is also one of the requirements for publishing your event.

Adding custom sections

Beyond the Description, add a section for anything worth its own tab, Schedule, Parking, Awards, FAQ, What to Wear, Pre-race Events. Each section has:

Section type

Content (free-form text) or Schedule (a day-of timeline, see below).

Title

The tab label, e.g. “Parking” or “Awards”.

Icon

Pick from a small set (calendar, map pin, trophy, car, shirt, and more). It renders on the section's tab.

Body

Written in a rich-text editor, use the toolbar for bold, italic, lists, and links; no markdown needed. (Sections written in markdown before the editor upgrade still display correctly.)

Adding a link

Select the words you want to link, press the link button in the toolbar, and paste or type the address. You can type it the short way, leaguerunner.net works as well as https://leaguerunner.net, and an email address turns into a tap-to-email link. Links open in a new tab on the website and in a browser sheet in the Run This app, so runners never lose their place on your event page.

Schedule sections

A Schedule section skips the free-form body. Instead you add rows (a time (free text, like “7:00 AM” or “After awards”), what's happening, and an optional detail) and the event page renders them as a clean day-of timeline.

Hiding a section

The eye button on each row toggles a section between shown and hidden. A hidden section keeps its content but doesn't render on the public page, handy for drafting next year's FAQ, or pulling the Parking tab while the lot situation is in flux, without deleting anything. The Description can't be hidden.

Section images

Any section except a Schedule can carry one image: a course map, a medal shot, last year's finish-line photo. In the section editor, use Image (optional) to pick a file. You get a cropper before it uploads, and you can choose the crop shape that suits the picture rather than being forced into one ratio.

Once an image is attached, pick where it sits:

• Beside the text: a narrow column to the right on desktop, moving above the text on phones. Good for a portrait shot or a logo.
• Above the text: full width across the top of the section. Good for a wide course map or a banner photo.

Remove imagetakes the picture off and leaves the section itself alone. Schedule sections render a timeline instead of body text, so they don't show an image and the control isn't offered there.

How they render publicly

On your event page, visible sections appear under About This Event as a row of tab pills, icon plus title, with the first section selected by default. Clicking a pill swaps the content below. Long bodies are clamped with a “read more” reveal so one wordy section doesn't push everything else off screen. Your sections also show up in the event page's navigation menu, which jumps straight to the right tab.

Previewing your work

• The magnifying-glass button on any row shows the section rendered exactly as the public page renders it.
• For the full picture, open your event page itself, as a director you can view it even while the event is a draft.
