Your first 30 minutes

Your dashboard shows a setup checklist that fills in automatically as you complete these steps. The suggested order:

1. Fill in your club settings

Work through Club Settings: name, description, logo, founded year, contact details, a couple of club rules and your social links. A progress helper shows what's left. This comes first because widgets, your public site and search results all pull from these details.

2. Set your design

Open Design and pick a theme preset - colours, fonts and corner style in one click. Fine-tune individual colours later; the preset gets you looking right immediately. See Design your site.

3. Make your home page yours

Your home page already exists with starter sections. Open it in the page builder and replace the placeholder text and images with your club's own. See Page builder basics.

4. Add your first event

Create an event in Events - even a rough date for your next meet gives your site a pulse and something for members to find. See Create an event.

5. Connect Facebook (optional)

If your club runs a Facebook page, connect it in Connections so followers, posts and events sync automatically. See Connect your Facebook page.

Once the checklist hits 100% it collapses out of the way. The admin site tour shows where everything else lives.
