Posting Event Help and FAQ

How do I post an event?
The first step in posting an event is to register a member profile on Dart Finder. Once you are registered, you will be able to post, edit, and submite results of your upcoming dart events.

Why do I need to complete the required fields?
The required fields are necessary for the searching module. When players are searching for an event, the location is filtered by using this information.
Important Info on Posting: The State/Region and City fields are free text meaning that you can type whatever you need in these fields. The filter on the search is set up dynamically so the City is populated by State, and State is populated by Country.  Posted upcoming events must exist in that combination for those available values to be populated.

How many events can I post?
You can post as many events as you like. All the events you post are available from the My Events page from your member home. Use the filter on that page to help manage your upcoming and previous events.

How do I make changes or modifications to an event that I have already posted?
You must first be logged into the site to make any edits or modifications to your posted events. When you zoom into an event that YOU have posted, you will have administrative options at the top of the zoom form.

Edit This Event: Make changes or updates to the posting.

Post Results: Post results or a recap after the event is completed. This will activate a new details field in the event edit screen so you can post the results or the event recap.

Recycle This Event: Want to have a new event with the same settings? Use this to copy all information from this event to a new posting.

Delete This Event: Delete this posting.

How do I post an event that has many sub-events?
You should only post ONE event to encapsulate all of your games. If your tournament is a larger, multi-day, multi-event, then check multiple game options that represent any of your 'sub' events. For example if you have a 701 event at 11am and Cricket at 3pm, then you would check BOTH the '01 game and Cricket game options as well as any skill divisions you may have. This lets people know that there are sub-events specified for that game only. Please use the details to best describe the schedule and any participation details.

What if the event options do not accurately describe my event?
Do the best you can by setting the options that you feel are most relevant. The settings for the event are there to help players narrow down the tournaments and events they are looking for. It's important that you use the details to best describe what your event is and any questions players may have. Be descriptive as possible to avoid any possible confusion or questions.

If you feel that additional event options would be useful for yourself or other posters, please let us know so we improve the event information capabilities.

What if I have a repeating event?
There is an option to 'recycle' your event into a new post. While viewing an existing event that YOU have posted, click on the Recycle link from the member options and that will create a NEW EVENT with the same settings as the current. Adjust the date or any information and then submit to post the new 'cloned' event.

How do I post the results of an event?
After an event is completed, you have the ability to post the results as well as a summary, recap, or any exciting information about that event. Locate the event in the 'My Events' page. When you view your event, click on the 'Post Results' option located in the Member options at the top. That will activate the edit form along with a new field so you can post your results.
