What am I looking at on my league's Overview page?
Overview is the page you land on when you open your league. It shows how set up your league is, the health of your EA connection, and the one-press tools for running the league day to day.
Where to find it
On the website: open your league. It opens on Overview automatically, or click Overview in the sidebar from anywhere else.
In the app: tap More, then your league (or, from your team page, tap the green League button and pick Overview).
What's on this page
- The hero band: your league's name and icon, tags for your plan, your Madden link and when data last came in, and four numbers (Health, Setup, License, Add-ons) that each jump to where you change them.
- Start Here: three steps toward a running league. A step ticks itself off when the server can see it is done, not because you clicked something.
- League Data and the Commissioner Panel: the two places you go to pull fresh data from EA and to run the league week to week.
- Add-Ons: what your league owns, what it costs, and the button to add more.
- License & Billing, EA Connection, League Rules, Support Codes and the Danger Zone: one row each, opened in place without leaving the page.
The first three things a new commissioner does
- Check Start Here and work down the three steps in order.
- Open EA Connection and connect your Madden league. See Connecting your EA account for every step, including the phone-only part that looks broken but isn't.
- Open League Rules and set your league's name and basics so the rest of the product (crumbs, posts, the public listing) reads correctly everywhere.
Common problems
- I don't see the Setup steps. They only disappear once every step is done. Check the number in the hero band first.
- A number in the hero band looks wrong. Each one is a link. Click it to go straight to the setting it is counting.
