Overview

The Configuration tab controls how participants find and use their photos on the public event page. Everything lives in one Feature Configuration card, grouped into Search Methods, Display Options, and Download & Language. A badge in the card header shows how many features are on, for example 4 / 7 enabled.
Configuration changes are not saved automatically. Use the Save button in the footer to apply changes, or Discard to revert. If you switch tabs with unsaved changes, the dashboard asks you to confirm before leaving.

Search Methods

ToggleWhat it does
Selfie SearchParticipants find photos of themselves with face recognition (a selfie)
Bib SearchParticipants search by their race bib number
Name SearchParticipants search by name. Lives as an add-on inside Bib details and needs a bib-to-name CSV

Bib Detection Settings

When Bib Search is on, open the bib detection settings to tune how numbers are recognised:
  • Digit count — accept bibs within a minimum/maximum digit range.
  • Range-based — define numeric ranges for categories (for example, 1–500 and 1001–1500).
A built-in regex assistant can generate detection patterns for you if your bibs follow an unusual format.

Name Search & the Bib-to-Name CSV

Name Search is an add-on under Bib Search. Once Name Search is enabled, a Bib ↔ Name CSV uploader appears. Upload a CSV that maps bib numbers to participant names so people can search by name as well as number.
