Running a Competition
The competition page and banner
Building the content your website renders, and the three block names the site-wide banner depends on.
Last updated September 2, 2026
The Website Content tab holds the blocks your website reads to build the competition page. Add Content, give the block a Name, and pick its Type.
The block types
- Short Text and Long Text — plain copy.
- Rich Text — formatted copy with links.
- Single Image and Gallery.
- List - Select Manually, List - Meta Data and List - Sortable List — for prize lists, steps, or rules summaries.
The banner needs exact names
Where the page appears
The competition lives at its own address on your website, built from the Slug. You can also drop a promotion into any page you build in the website editor using the Promotion block and choosing which competition it shows.
Nothing renders outside your website
A promotion appears on your Gorilla Dash website and in the confirmation email. It does not appear in a branded store, in the app, or anywhere a customer logs in. Promote it by linking to the page from your email campaigns and social posts.
Check it before you advertise it
Visit the page yourself once the start date has arrived and submit a test entry. That confirms the dates are right, the content renders, and the confirmation email looks the way you want — all three of which fail quietly.
