Find your way around the dashboard
An event shows 8 tabs: Overview, Album, QR and signs, Live, Downloads, Moderation, Insights and Settings. Each answers one question, and a few of them you will never open.
For a regular party 3 are enough: QR and signs ahead of time, Overview during, Downloads afterward.
Overview: the state at a glance
The first tab tracks live totals — photos, videos, voice notes, guest scans and the total. Below them hold the most recent contributions and a note if anything is waiting for approval. The numbers move while your guests contribute.
For the evening itself that's your only page you need open. Everything else is preparation or aftermath.
- Open an event. The dashboard home lists your events. A click drops you into that event, not into a general view.
- Pick the tab you need. The tabs only change the view on the same event. Browsing loses nothing.
- Walk through them once beforehand. Opening each one takes 5 minutes and answers the questions that would otherwise arrive during the party.
Album and Moderation
Album keeps each contribution. After that you hide individual ones, remove them or restore them. Moderation is a separate tab for events that review first: contributions wait there for your approval before guests can see them.
With automatic publishing the Moderation tab stays empty. That's standard and right for most parties.
QR and signs, and Live
QR and signs has the code in multiple formats and colors, plus a designer for print-ready signs. Live launches the wall you can put on a screen in the room; it belongs to the Celebrate and Grand plans and begins turned off.
QR and signs is the tab you need first and then rarely after. Print 1 stand per table, not 1 per room.
Downloads and Insights
Downloads is the tab for afterward: grab everything as one archive, or pick a few. Insights shows how contributions spread over time and how many scans there were. Both are aftermath; neither is needed that night.
The free tier offers no bulk export. There the route is file by file.
Settings: every switch
Name, date, guest-page language, accent color, which contribution types are allowed, whether the album is public and whether a password appears in front of it. It's the longest tab and the one you're most likely to open twice.
Changes apply to the next guest who visits the page. Anybody with it already open still spots the old state.
The order that works
Create the event, pick the language and permitted kinds in Settings, grab the code from QR and signs, and trial an upload using a borrowed phone. After that Overview is the only page you still need.
Afterward visit downloads, and only once everything returns to Settings to close uploads.
Common questions
Which tab do I need during the party?
Overview. It tracks live totals and flags anything waiting for approval.
Why is the Moderation tab empty?
Because your event publishes automatically, so nothing passes through a queue.
Where do I change the event name?
In Settings. The event code is unaffected.
Where is the live wall?
The Live tab. It belongs to the Celebrate and Grand plans.
Can I break something by clicking around?
No. Tabs only change the view; nothing changes until you save.
