The competition dashboard is the main hub for all information regarding a competition. An important thing to remember that it's dynamic based on your role and the status of the competition- not everyone will always see the exact same information on the dashboard.
Also, Pitch always tries to show you the most relevant information first- the dashboard sections will be organized or collapsed differently based on the stage of the competition.
This page only goes through what is shown across all or multiple roles. To see what information is displayed on the dashboard to each individual role, use the links below.
The dashboard is broken up into small, digestible sections, explained below.

At the top of the Competition Dashboard, you can see the competition name, type and team size.
This panel displays the Competition Description provided in Competition Creation. This is where all the main details about the competition will be explained.

The Important Dates panel displays all the dates within the competition. When collapsed, it will show the next two upcoming dates.

The resources panel can be found on the dashboard, whether resources have or have not been uploaded.
The Judge-Only resources panel will only display to staff and judges, whether resources have or have not been uploaded.

The judges panel displays all the judges that have been added to the competition. Staff members can also view hidden judges, whereas judges and competitors will not see those profiles.

The release files panel can be found on the Dashboard in certain situations. It will not display at all unless a staff member has added release files in the Competition Features.
Staff will always be able to see the files that have been uploaded.
Judges and competitors will see a panel explaining that there are release files and the date they will be released. Only once the files have been released will they be able to view or download the files.

You can learn more about this for each role in the following links.
Anonymous users or users that are not part of the competition do not have access to any discussion boards.

The Competition Dashboard is the main hub for everything in the competition, so if you can't find something, it's probably there somewhere!
