Quick Answer
A layout marked "needs attention" is missing required elements. Edit the layout and ensure every hole has both a tee and target selected to restore it.
Why This Happens
Layouts can break when you make changes in Map Manager that remove elements currently being used by a layout:
Deleting a tee position that a layout uses
Deleting a target position that a layout uses
Deleting a fairway that connects a layout's tee and target
Making elements inactive that are needed by the layout
When this happens, the layout becomes unplayable and won't appear in the course listing for players until it's fixed.
How to Fix a Layout That Needs Attention
Step 1: Find the layout
Go to your Course Tools dashboard
Select the Layouts tab
Look for any layout marked "Needs Attention"
Step 2: Edit the layout
Tap the 3-dot menu on the layout that needs attention
Tap Edit
The Layout Builder will open
Step 3: Fix each hole
Go through each hole one at a time
Make sure every hole has:
A tee position selected
A target position selected
If a hole is missing either element, select a valid tee and target from the available options
Repeat for all holes on the layout
Step 4: Publish your changes
Review your layout on the Overview page
Verify that all holes are complete
Tap Publish layout to save your changes
Once published, the layout will be active and available to players again.
How to Avoid This Issue
To prevent layouts from breaking when making changes in Map Manager:
Before deleting elements: Check which layouts use them
Plan your changes: Review all layouts after making Map Manager updates
If you need to remove a tee, target, or fairway that's currently in use, be prepared to update any affected layouts afterward.
