🔀 Reorder and rename holes

Learn how to reorder and rename holes in Map Manager when your course undergoes major changes like a redesign or when temporary holes become permanent.

Quick Answer

Use the Actions menu in Map Manager to reorder and rename holes. This updates the Map Manager structure but does not change the hole order on existing layouts — those must be updated separately in the Layout Builder.

When to reorder or rename holes

Reordering or renaming holes should not typically be done once your Map Manager is established, except in special circumstances.

Special circumstances include:

  • A complete course redesign

  • Temporary holes becoming permanent with different hole numbers

  • Major layout changes requiring hole renumbering

How to reorder and rename multiple holes

  1. Open your course in the UDisc app

  2. Access Map Manager

  3. Tap Actions in the upper right

  4. Select Reorder and rename holes

  5. Drag and drop holes to reorder them

  6. Tap on the hole number to rename it

  7. Tap Save when finished

  8. Review the new order and names along the bottom of the screen

How to rename a single hole

If you only need to rename one hole:

  1. In Map Manager, tap the hole you want to rename

  2. Tap the pencil icon in the upper right

  3. Change the hole name

  4. Tap Save

Critical: Reordering holes in Map Manager does not automatically rearrange the hole order on your existing Smart Layouts.

Important: Updating your layouts

After reordering in Map Manager:

  1. Review each layout to ensure holes are in the correct order

  2. Edit layouts individually using the Layout Builder if needed

  3. Publish changes to make them available to players

If the hole order should only be different on a specific layout (like for a tournament), update the hole order directly on that layout instead of in Map Manager.

After making changes

  1. Publish your changes in Map Manager

  2. Review all existing layouts to verify they still work correctly

  3. Update layouts that need the new hole order

  4. Test with a practice scorecard to ensure everything works as expected
