Managed planners overview

Managed planners have extended functionality, to give editors more control over a planner.
They are free.

Interested parties should get in contact via .

Who are these for?​

Anybody with a use case that would benefit from them.

Most importantly: They're not for stifling normal community collaboration.
qplanner is primarily for accurately displaying event stage times, and associated information.

Here's some use cases I can think of:

  • Do you want to privately plan an event, even with no intent on making it available to everyone? That's fine.
  • Are you hosting a fantasy festival competition? Sure.
  • Should an official event kindly wish to add their stage times here, they're more than welcome.
  • An accredited professional would like to use qplanner to view stage times they have access to, which are currently embargoed.
  • Emergency protection of a planner, with assigned editors (In the case of repeated vandalism and such)
  • College schedule? Eh, probably not. You can just save locally, and use the preview functionality to make printable PDFs.

Features:​

Protection​

The main feature, protection, restricts creator and history access for the planner, and has two modes.
The first mode makes the planner completely hidden, and inaccessible to anybody other than the planner owner.
Whilst the second allows others to view the planner.
This allows you to quietly create an event, saving the planner on the website, and tweak things to your liking before making the planner available to others.

Assign editors​

You can also assign other accounts as editors of the planner, which allows them to access and edit the planner.

Preview links can be created that allow unprivileged users the ability to view a protected planner, even when it's hidden.

Vanity URL​

Planners normally have a link that looks like qplanner.co.uk/p/3074, with a vanity URL it can be qplanner.co.uk/v/My-Event-2026.

Official accuracy​

This is highest accuracy level qplanner offers.
Planners using it are displayed with a blue line on the website, instead of the usual best, green, for accurate. This should only be used by representatives of actual events.

3d Models​

This isn't directly available yet, but if you need a 3d model of your stage times, wavy or not.

Scheduled updates​

This feature is not ready yet.
The premise is that you set a date/time and the planner automatically switches to viewable, along with an update to the planner.
