CT Event Widget

Introduction

The CT Event Widget is a searchable database of past, upcoming, and live events. You can setup your own organization there for athletes to be able to view all of your org's events.

Navigating to the Event Widget

To navigate to the main Event Widget for all ChronoTrack hosted events, go to this link: ChronoTrack Event Widget. This widget allows a user to peruse the various live events as well as past events hosted on CT Live. 

Creating a Widget for your Organization

To create your own personalized Widget for your org you will need to do 2 things. 

1. Get the CT Live Organization ID for your org by contacting Timer Support.
2. Add the Org ID to the end of the following link: https://live.chronotrack.com/events?orgId=

For example, if the ID was 999, the corresponding Event Widget Link would be https://live.chronotrack.com/events?orgId=999

What this will look like once created:

If you wish to show Events for multiple organizations in your Event Widget, simply add that org id onto the end of the Event Widget URL with a comma between it and the other org id. "xxx" represents the org ids you wish to display. 

For example: https://live.chronotrack.com/events?orgId=xxx,xxx 

Features of Widget

Search

At the top of the Widget there is a search. This search allows athletes to find any Events that have occurred under your Organization in CT Live. 

Live Events

Display of Events that are currently Live or Ongoing.

Past/Upcoming Events

Click to toggle the Past Events or Upcoming Events using the oblong button above the list of events. Whichever option is chosen will be highlighted in White. 

Results

Click the Results button on the right to navigate to the corresponding Microsite Results. If those results have not yet been processed through Microsite Results, then there will be a link to Athlinks on that Results Page.

Hiding Events from the Event Widget

1. To Hide an Event from the Event Widget, go to Event Properties from the Event Dashboard. 
2. Choose Jump To Section > Other.
3. Click to uncheck Is Published. If it is a test event, also check Is Test Event. Marking an event as a test event will also hide it from appearing on the event widget. 

4. Choose Complete & Save.

    

Adding Color to the Widget

You may wish to change the primary color of your Event Widget. To do so, simply append the following to your URL: "&color=xxx" where "xxx" is the hex code of the color you wish the widget to be.

Example: https://live.chronotrack.com/events?orgId=999,929&color=ded121

Embedding the Widget in your Website

If you wish to embed your Event Widget page for your organization on your own website, use an HTML iframe in the HTML of your Event's website. 

Example of HTML to use for this purpose:

<iframe src="https://live.chronotrack.com/events?orgId=XXX" width="100%" height="2000px"></iframe>

In this case replace the "XXX" at the end of the URL listed in the iframe with your CT Organization ID.
