Nomination Names
A nomination name is the name for the nomination as seen on an admin list and by the judges. You can select one or more fields from the entry form to be used as the nomination name. It is important you choose at least one field otherwise every entry will say "-not set-" which can make managing entries difficult for both admin users and judges.

How to select the nomination name

Click the green Add Questions button in the pop up window and you can click the checkbox Use for nomination name in order to set this question as your nomination name.
Note 🗒️
When marking a question as a nomination name, the question automatically becomes required and you can not override it. It also removes the option to hide the field from Entrant and Judge.
Warning ⚠
Not all answer types can be used as a nomination name. If you choose one of these answer types you will see a warning which states The selected answer type cannot be used for the nomination name.
When using Person/Organisation Field Types for nomination names.
If your question answer type is Person or Organization, they each contain multiple fields and so you are able to identify exactly which fields can be used as your nomination name(s).
For example, the answer type Organisation contains two fields Organisation name and Domain label.
You can check the box of the ones you wish to use.
How to change the order of your nomination names
If you have selected more than one question as your nomination name they will be split by a comma.
To change the order in which the fields appear in, go to Awards > Categories > In the Questions column click on the blue button for the targeted category.
Here you will see the fields you have selected listed in the Nomination Name section.
Drag and drop the fields into the order you would like them to appear and then click the blue Update nomination names button. If you don't Update nomination names any new nominations will use your new structure but existing nominations will be untouched.
How to change the nomination name after entries have already been received
You can change the nomination name at any point throughout the process by following the steps outlined above. However if you do make a change to the nomination name AFTER you have started to receive entries, once the above steps are complete you should click the blue Update nomination names button. This will back date the changes to any entries already received.
