Competition types are the kinds of championship, for example National or International. You choose one in each championship card and the website shows it on the championship, event and driver pages.
What it is for
A short list kept once for all of ERA. Add a type when a new kind of championship starts; rename one to fix a typo. The list is shared by every championship, so a change shows everywhere it is used.
Step by step
- Open the page. Go to Events › Competition types. Each row shows the name, the order and the championships that use the type.
- Add a type. Write the Name of the new type and, if you want, its Order. Press Add. Without an order, the new type goes at the end.
- Rename or reorder. Change the name or the order in the row and press the tick to save that row. The order sets how the types are listed.
- Delete a type. The delete icon appears only on types no championship uses. Confirm to delete.
- Use it. Open the championship in Championships and choose the Type.
What ERA checks
- The name cannot be empty.
- Two types cannot have the same name, even with different capitals: ERA answers that the name is already in the list.
- A type used by a championship cannot be deleted. ERA says how many championships use it.
Common problems
| What happens | What to do |
|---|---|
| No delete icon | A championship still uses the type. Change the type in that championship first. |
| The championship card asks Choose the type. | Every championship needs a type. Add the one you need here. |
