Learn how to control the layout of a category.

PreviousCreating CategoryNextGeneral Information

Last updated 2 years ago

When you are creating or editing a category in the "Layout Options tab" you can control the look of the category layout. By default all options are inherited from the component options so you need to set them only if you want this particular category to look different from other categories.

Category Layout Options

General options

  • Title – show or hide the title of the category.

  • Contest Status – this option controls the status of the contests which will be displayed in the list by default.

  • Status Filter – show or hide the status filter that allows you to filter by contest status: All, Active or Completed.

  • Type Filter – show or hide the type filter that allows you to filter by contest type.

  • Pagination – show or hide the pagination. Pagination provides page links at the bottom of the page that allow the user to navigate to additional pages. These are needed if the elements will not fit on one page.

  • Limit - show or hide the limit box which allows you to choose how many contests should be displayed on the page.

  • Pagination Results - show or hide the information about the current page and total pages. For example: "Page 1 of 4".

Competition Display Options
