This article provides detailed information for a user with the Manage Events permission on how to edit a competition.
Editing Competition Details (Before a Participant Solves a Challenge)
You can edit almost all competitions details before a participant solves a challenge. You can edit a competition’s details by clicking on the competition’s Details [1] tab. To edit a section, click the Edit [2] button next to the section you wish to edit.
This will allow you to edit the relevant Sections [1]. You can save your changes by clicking the Save [2] button. Alternatively, you can cancel any changes by clicking the Cancel [3] button.
Editing Competition Details (After a Participant Solves a Challenge)
After a participant solves a challenge, you can only edit the Competition End Date. To edit the End Date, click the Edit button shown below.
To edit the Competition End Date, click on the calendar [1] icon. Select the desired date and time in the calendar. To save your changes, click the Save [2] button or press the Cancel [3] button if you no longer wish to make the changes.
Editing Challenges
You can add and remove challenges at any stage before the competition has started. However, once a competition has started, you can only add challenges.
To edit the challenges within a competition, click on the Challenges [1] tab. Then click the Edit Challenges [2] button to edit the challenges in the competition.
You can then click on the Checkbox [1] next to that challenge that you’d like to select or deselect for the competition. You can select all challenges shown in the table by clicking on the Checkbox [2] in the top left-hand corner of the table. You can search for a challenge by clicking on the Search [3] icon.
The search icon will open a Text Box that you can use to search for a particular challenge by name, as shown in the image below.
The Filter button also allows you to search for specific challenges, as shown in the image below.
You can filter challenges based on their Name, Category, Difficulty, Estimated Time to Solve and Points, as shown in the image below.
📖 Note: All labs in lab-based challenges have a duration of 2 hours. Participants can extend their lab instances as many times as they require, resetting their lab timers to 2 hours and retaining progress made. Participants can also reset their labs as needed, which will deploy a new lab instance and erase all progress.
