Application Settings
The 'Application Settings' allow you to edit various settings that apply across the entire App. Most settings don't need editing. |
Select Application Settings
|
From the Application Dashboard, select the 'Application Settings' option (as shown in the image above). After selecting this option, a list of Settings is displayed on the left side of the page (as shown in the image below). The following information explains each of these settings in detail.
|
The 'General' settings includes the ability to change the number of tabs displayed at the bottom of your App (e.g. Club House, Course etc.). The number of tabs can be edited via the corresponding drop-down menu.
The 'Enable App's Rotation' check-box enables the device (on which the App is being displayed) to rotate sideways, with the page displayed vertically. This setting is not enabled by default, noting that the score card and hole map pages in iCaddy templates are not designed for use in landscape view. We recommend leaving this setting disabled.
Note: Leaving the rotation disabled will not prevent hole fly-over videos from being viewed in landscape (i.e. with the device rotated).
The 'Enable Webview Bounces' check-box and the 'Share Link' setting are not required to be edited on any of the iCaddy templates and should only be edited by advanced users.
Note: None of the General settings need to be edited for a normal iCaddy Build (i.e. when using an existing iCaddy template).
|
The 'Startup Options' allow you to enable a 'User Agreement' which is displayed the first time a user opens your App. The user must then agree to your 'terms & conditions' before using the App. The User Agreement will not be displayed again after a user has accepted the 'Terms & Conditions'. If you select the 'Enable User Agreement' check-box, a new page will be added automatically to the 'Edit Pages' list where you can customize a User Agreement for your Club.
The 'Enable Welcome Page' setting enables a Welcome Page which will be displayed every time a user opens your App. If you select the 'Enable Welcome Page' check-box, a new page will be automatically listed in the 'Edit Pages' list where you can customize a Welcome Page for your App.
Note: None of the Startup Options settings need to be edited for a normal iCaddy Build (i.e. when using an existing iCaddy template).

This setting allows you to restrict access to your App in the iCaddy Previewer. An 'Access Code' can be set which must be entered before access is provided to the user in the Previewer.
Note: This function is only for advanced users and it is not required to be edited to view your App in the iCaddy Previewer. We recommend leaving the default settings unchanged.

The 'Rate App Settings' allow you to set up a prompt which asks the user to rate the App (e.g. each time the App is launched). The Apple ID for the App is required to enable the App-Rating feature. We recommend leaving the 'Rate App Settings' blank, however iCaddy Apps can assist Clubs' to enable this feature is required.
