When to use this

Verify
Section titled “Verify”Players will now see priority cards marked “PRIORITY” at the top of their dashboard when they log in to Hoopla. Log in as a test player or ask a team member to confirm they see the priority cards in the expected order.
If it doesn’t work
Section titled “If it doesn’t work”- Priority cards not appearing: Verify the player is assigned to the correct team or user group in step 4. Check that you clicked Publish in step 12.
- Metrics or leaderboards unavailable in step 6: Confirm the metrics and leaderboards are already created in Hoopla before setting them as priority cards.
- Cannot access Configure menu: Verify you have admin permissions. Contact your account administrator if you do not see the Configure option.
- Layout doesn’t match preview: Refresh the player’s browser and confirm they are logged out and back in to see the updated configuration.
If players still do not see priority cards after following these steps, escalate to your account team.
