Create options for use when downloading entries which will determine how the image files are organized into directories. The key determines the directory layout; the value is a free-form description. Use these values for the key, separated by slashes:

• C = Class Name
• S = Status
• A = Award value

Possible options:

Select “Yes” to show the Upcoming Event block even if there are no events to show. The default value of “No” will hide the block unless there is an event to display.

Limit the Upcoming Events block to this number of events. Events with the nearest submission cutoff date are shown first.

Select which glFusion blocks to display with the plugin.

Users may be allowed to change their own division by updating their account settings, or divisions may be controlled by the plugin administrators. The options for this setting are:

• No Restriction - Users may freely change their division at any time.
• User can move up - Users may select a more advanced division but may not select a lower one.
• User cannot change - Only administrators may change user divisions.

Select whether to use the version of the TimThumb image resizer included with the plugin.

• Advantage: Fewer images created and stored on the website
• Disadvantage: Slow initial page loads when many images are present, e.g. winners list.

Select whether users can print labels for their print entries. Administrators always have access to this function.

Select whether to use the Shop plugin to handle fee payments. The Shop plugin must be installed for this to work.

To handle cases where payments may be taken in manually and the site is not updated, this option can be used to remove the “fee due” indicator from events after the event has closed. Enter “-1” to disable this function. Entering a number greater than -1 will remove the payment button from the “Fees” tab.

These are default settings used when a new event is created.

Select the glFusion group that will be set as participants in the event.

Select the glFusion group to set as the judges for an event. This is not used unless the event is judged online, and a glFusion group is used as the judging group.

When a user opens the submission form near the submisson cutoff time, their submission may be denied if they then click “Submit” a few minutes later. This setting determines now long after the cutoff time a submission will be accepted. Note that the submission form itself is never shown after the cutoff time.

If the cutoff time for an event is approaching, it can be highlighted in the Upcoming Event block. This is the number of days before cutoff when the alert is highlighted.

When image files are downloaded, the filenames can be formatted according to this template. Use these values to construct the desired filenames:

• %EVT - Event ID number
• %ID - Image ID number. Only use this by itself since the image ID is always appended to other filename formats (to avoid duplicates).
• %DIV - Division ID number
• %CLS - Class ID number
• %UID - User ID number
• %UN - User's last name, display name, or username, whichever is available
• %TTL - Image title, supplied by the submitter
• %FN - Original filename, excluding the extension.

Any other characters in the template are inserted verbatim.

Select whether the Custom Profile plugin will be used to supply additional profile information for users.

If the Custom Profile plugin is used, create elements here to indicate which Profile fields will be included in the user information. The field named should be the Custom Profile field names as entered, not including the normal “prf_” prefix added by the Profile plugin.

Select “Yes” to have a field added to the site registration form where a new user can enter their own Exhibitor ID.
