Challenge Statuses
Every challenge on OuiRace follows a lifecycle defined by three statuses. Understanding these statuses helps you manage your challenges effectively and anticipate the actions needed at each stage.
The three statuses​
Draft​
The draft status corresponds to a challenge that is being created or modified. While a challenge is in draft:
- It is not visible to participants or the public
- You can modify all settings: title, goal, type, allowed sports, dates
- No participant can register
Take advantage of the draft status to refine every detail of your challenge. Have a colleague review the title and description before publishing.
Published​
The published status makes the challenge visible and open for participation. Once published:
- The challenge appears on your public campaign page
- Participants can register and start collecting donations
- Athletic activities are counted toward the goal
- Modifications are limited to ensure consistency
Publishing a challenge is a significant action. Carefully verify the following points before publishing:
- The title and description are correct
- The goal is well calibrated
- The start and end dates are accurate
- The allowed sports match your intention
Finished​
The finished status indicates that the challenge has ended. In this state:
- Final results are available and locked
- Participants can no longer log new activities
- Donations can still be viewed
- The challenge remains visible as a historical record
Color badges​
In the challenge table of your dashboard, each status is identified by a color badge for quick visual identification:
| Status | Badge | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Draft | Neutral badge (grey) | Challenge in preparation |
| Published | Active badge (green) | Challenge in progress, open to participants |
| Finished | Finished badge | Challenge closed, results available |
Color badges let you see the state of each challenge at a glance, which is particularly useful when managing many challenges within the same campaign.
Typical lifecycle​
A challenge's standard path follows these stages:
- Creation: you fill out the challenge form. The status is automatically set to "draft."
- Preparation: you adjust the settings, write the description, and verify the goals.
- Publication: you publish the challenge. It becomes visible and registrations open.
- Active period: participants register, complete activities, and collect donations.
- Closure: at the end date or manually, the challenge moves to "finished" status.
