Change Route Ordering

You can manually switch the ordering of routes by clicking and dragging the arrows icon next to each route name. The new ordering is saved automatically. This is the order your guest will see routes listed in the Experience, and guests will be unable to change, filter, or sort the routes.

Guide Pages

Guide pages can be used to add information for your guests that is accessible offline. Use this section to add schedule details, addresses, recommended restaurants, PDFs, and other important information. You can format text, add links and phone numbers, link to your routes, add elevation profiles, include photos, and more.

You can add a Header and drag Sections to be listed underneath the Headers for better organization of your content. You can also attach full PDFs to quickly load documents for guests to reference.

  • Click the Guide tab on the left.

Link Routes in Guide Pages

Linking your routes to an Experience Guide page allows your guests to see the route information and access the routes from one of your Guide pages.

 

To link a route to your Guide page follow the steps below:

  1. Within the Guide page editor, move the cursor to where you'd like the route link to be added.
  2. From the toolbar, click the add-route icon.
  3. Select the route from your Experience you would like to add to the Guide page, and click Save.

You can edit or delete the route link by editing the Guide Section, clicking on the route link, and clicking Edit or Delete.

Once you have linked all your routes within the Guide, you can choose to remove the Show Routes Section in app option which is available in the Routes tab. Only disable this option if you have linked all your Experience routes within your Guide page, and you don't want to have the View Routes option listed on the Experience home page that your guests see in our mobile app.

Live Guide Section

Live Guide Sections allow you to make updates to the Section without needing to republish your Experience or having your riders download updates. Accessing a Live Guide Section is much like accessing a webpage. Updates will require that your riders have internet access.

 

To make a Guide Section Live, follow the steps below:

  1. Create your Guide content as you normally would.
  2. At the bottom of the Section, click Change to Live Section.
  3. Click the Save button to save your Live Guide page. Unlike an offline Guide page, Live Guide pages are not autosaved and must be saved manually.

Within the app, Live Guide Sections will show an orange dot on any Section that is Live.

 

Changing a Guide page from Offline to Live will require you to republish your Experience, which you can do on the Overview page.

Reorder Guide Pages

Guide pages are listed in the order in which they are created. If you want to change the ordering in which they appear in the app, click and drag the arrows icon. The new ordering will be saved automatically.

Nest Guide Pages

Nesting your Guide pages allows you to group and organize your Guide pages under a Header.

To nest Guide Sections under a Header follow the steps below:

  1. Enter your Header title and click Add Header.
  2. Enter your Guide Section title and click Add Section.
  3. Click and drag any Guide Section and drop it underneath any Header you would like the Guide Section to be listed beneath. You will see a blue dotted line to indicate your drop zone.

Adding PDFs

You're able to add PDFs to an Experience, either as their own standalone Section, or nested under a Header. PDFs will be available offline like the rest of the contents in the Guide. You're able to zoom in for more detail as well as tap links to open in a browser. Opening links will require cellular data or wifi.
 
To add a PDF to an Experience, follow these steps:
  1. On the Guide tab, click Add PDF.
  2. Enter a Section name for this PDF.
  3. Click Browse to choose a file from your computer, or click and drag a PDF onto the Browse button.
  4. Now you can reorder this Section or nest it under a Header.

Note that after you have added the PDF, it will not be visible in your Experience editor view. You will only see a button to Download PDF while editing your Experience on our website. When your guests view the PDF on our app, they will see the full PDF that you uploaded as if it were like any of your manually typed Guide Sections.
