meshO Manager

Appearance

Competitor archive ​

Audience: Event organisers managing a persistent database of competitors and SI cards across events.

Manager can maintain a cross-event archive of competitors and clubs so the same people are recognised from one event to the next — including their SI card numbers, club memberships, and class preferences.

Status: Stub — not yet written. The current implementation is Eventor-dependent and partially hidden; the UI is planned to be expanded and made directly viewable/editable. This page should describe both the current state and the planned direction.

What this page will cover ​

Current functionality ​

  • [ ] What the competitor archive is — a persistent record of competitors and clubs that spans events
  • [ ] Where it lives (separate from any single event's competitor list)
  • [ ] How it's populated today: Refresh Competitors and Refresh Clubs buttons in Eventor settings
  • [ ] What gets stored: name, SI card number, club, class history
  • [ ] How the archive is used during import — matching incoming entries to known competitors
  • [ ] Limitations of the current Eventor-dependent approach

Planned functionality ​

  • [ ] Browsing and searching the archive directly in Manager
  • [ ] Editing archive entries by hand (correcting an SI card number, merging duplicates)
  • [ ] Building the archive from events without Eventor (learn from each event's competitor list)
  • [ ] Using the archive to speed up on-the-day registration (look up by card number)
