My Dashboard' is your central hub, summarizing all your league activities. It displays upcoming races and entries, league standings, and unread messages. Think of each league as a mini-site within Driver Group Game, organized as shown in the image below.
n multiple leagues, each shares the same layout, functioning as individual micro-sites. The league name is displayed on every page within a league for easy identification.

Remember, each league has a unique entry form due to varying league setups. One form may not suit all leagues.
On 'My Dashboard'
On 'My Dashboard', all your leagues and their current race entries are listed. A red exclamation mark next to a league name indicates an incomplete entry form.
On League 'Home Page'
Your league home page, similar to 'My Dashboard', displays a summary of your entry with a link to it.
In League navigation under My Entries
In league navigation, 'My Entries' provides a direct link to the current race entry form.
Choose drivers from the dropdown menus and click 'Save Entry' to finalize.
Choose drivers from the dropdown menus and click 'Save Entry' to finalize.
Unlike previous seasons, entries now save even without a full 8-driver lineup.
Saving with less than 8 drivers triggers a notice but will still save. Missing drivers on your form means no points for those slots. In leagues using only Lock B without qualifying points, this has no impact.
The bottom of the entry form displays the last save time.
Missing drivers in your entry are shown on 'My Dashboard' and your league home page.
I've implemented error checks before saving your entry:
- Are drivers in the correct groups?
- Are drivers within their usage limits?
- Is the previous entry completely deleted before saving the new one?
These checks aim to prevent issues from previous seasons.
