Route Author Shift

Working together via co-authorship? You can switch the author of a route to someone else in your group. This is super handy if you're part of a club with different route builders. One person creates the route from their personal account, but you want the route to show up under the club account in the end. Thanks to co-authorship and the author switch, you can easily transfer route ownership and have it show up on the club’s landing page.

 

HEADS UP!
At least one co-author needs to have a RouteYou Premium account.

 

How to do it?

  1. Create a co-authors group and link it to the route you want.
      How to do this? Check out the co-authorship page.
     
  2. Open the route and click the Edit button  edit_drop_bis.png to open the route’s Basic info.
     
  3. Under Author (below the ‘Co-authors’ section), you can pick from a dropdown who should be the author or owner of the route.
     
  4. Confirm your choice at the bottom of the page.
     

  The route will now be transferred to the new author and will show up under their account, like the club account.
