How to Show and Hide Paddle Numbers
This article provides an informational video and suggestions for how to show and hide paddle numbers.
If you are importing your guest list you will have the option to pre-assign paddle numbers. If you have chosen not to pre-assign paddle numbers when importing your guest list or your guest list has been populated through ticket sales in Handbid this will not be applicable.
Important: It is best practice to hide paddle numbers during check-in. Paddle numbers are hidden by default. You do not want your volunteers at check-in to hand a paddle to a guest that has not registered as a bidder. This could create issues. Paddle numbers are only hidden for guests who have not been registered as a bidder. Paddle numbers display green when a guest is a registered bidder. Paddle numbers display grey and in italics to guests that have not registered as a bidder.
