# Event QR

> Generate, customise, and download a QR code for your event gallery.

## Overview

The **Event QR** tab (inside the [Advanced Config](/dashboard-guide/advanced/overview) product) generates a styled QR code that takes people straight to your event. Print it on bibs, banners, or signage so participants can find their photos instantly.

## What the QR Links To

| Situation                 | The QR points to        |
| ------------------------- | ----------------------- |
| **Selfie Search enabled** | The selfie search page  |
| **Selfie Search off**     | The event photo gallery |
| **Custom link set**       | Whatever URL you enter  |

The card shows the destination URL with three quick actions: **Edit** (set a custom link), **Copy**, and **Open**. If the event has a logo, it's embedded in the centre of the QR automatically.

## Download & Share

<Steps>
  <Step title="Check the link">
    Confirm the URL under the QR is correct (gallery, selfie search, or your custom link).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Download">
    Click **PNG** for print/social or **SVG** for a scalable vector you can resize without quality loss.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Customise (optional)">
    Click **Customize QR Code** to open the styling modal and adjust colours and dots to match your branding.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Use the **SVG** download for large-format printing (banners, backdrops) so the code stays crisp at any size.

## Common Questions

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Can I point the QR somewhere else?">
    Yes. Click the **Edit** (pencil) icon next to the link and enter a custom URL, or **Reset** to go back to the default gallery/selfie link.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Why does my QR go to selfie search instead of the gallery?">
    When Selfie Search is enabled for the event, the default QR links to the selfie search page so participants can find themselves faster. Turn it off in [Photo Configuration](/dashboard-guide/photos/configuration) or set a custom link.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="The QR doesn't show my logo.">
    The logo is pulled from your event branding. Add an event logo in [Photo Branding](/dashboard-guide/photos/branding) and regenerate.
