Embedding participant center in wrapper

acaschetta · July 2011

We are trying to embed our TeamRaiser participant center in our wrapper. We have tried creating a PageBuilder page and using the S409 tag to embed the partcipant center, and then creating a new participant center that points to this page. When we login to test, we see the "select a TeamRaiser event" page, but the link to our event redirects to the same page. How can we make it launch the embedded participant center home page?

Is there a better way to embed the participant center in a wrapper?

Thanks.

Sounds like there might be two issues here:

1) You need to select the custom participant center you created on your TeamRaiser. Edit the TeamRaiser, and go to Step 3. Select Event Options, then on 7. Participant Center for this TeamRaiser, select your participant center.

2) You shouldn't navigate directly to the PageBuilder page you created to access the participant center for your event. Instead, you should go to http://www.foo.org/site/TRC?fr_id=1234, where foo.org is your organization's Convio domain and 1234 is your TeamRaiser's ID. This link will then redirect to the page, and pass along necessary session information.

This is the URL for our TR:

We tried changing the participation center link to this page instead of the PageBuilder page, but it still seems to loop back to the same page.

I was just passing through and noticed that you're missing the letter C (which I assume stands for Center) in your link structure:

The link as you have it now takes you to the teamraiser entry page:

When you add the C it takes you to the Participant Center:

Good luck!

Looks like you missed Step 1 noted above -- your TeamRaiser is not currently associated with the "Participant Center in Wrapper" participant center you created. Edit the TeamRaiser, and go to Step 3. Select Event Options, then on 7. Participant Center for this TeamRaiser, select "Participant Center in Wrapper" (right now the default "Participant Center 2" is selected).

Got it. Thank you.
