Choose an activity tracker to record the number of events in the project

You can choose an Activity Tracker that records the number of events made using a particular event category.

How it works

  • Makerble automatically creates a story every time an event is created or every time an event happens. This is done every 24 hours.

  • In that story:

    • Author is automatically set as the user who created the event

    • The story will contain an Activity Tracker with a value of '1' in it.

      • For example, if you chose “Sessions Run” to be the Activity tracker for this event category, it would say “1 session run”

  • On the project page of the project in which the event is saved:

    • This activity tracker appears in the Progress Panel of the event's Project Page

    • It displays the total number of events in that event category that have happened so far.

      • For example, If there have been 10 events in that project made using the Event Category that has that Activity Tracker assigned to it, it will say for example, "10 Sessions Run”

How to find an event’s auto-generated story

An event’s auto-generated story appears in several places

  • The event’s timeline

  • The project’s timeline

  • The author’s timeline (ie on their user profile page)

  • The homepage

  • The popup timeline if that card has been added to a Progress Board
