1 General Information
Welcome to the Dancers Association Fliers page! This page displays fliers for dance sessions and events, organized into convenient categories for both desktop and mobile viewing.
- 🗂️ Management: Admins and registered Instructors can add new fliers and manage existing ones.
- 🧹 Automatic Cleanup: To keep the content fresh, fliers are automatically removed after a set period.
- 💰 Pricing Policy: Per Association policy, instructors are requested to only upload fliers that clearly state the entry price.

2 How to Register as an Instructor?
To manage fliers, you must first register at:
https://www.harokdim.org/users/register.php
(also available on the homepage top menu).
💡 Tip: We recommend using your real name as your username so your dancers can easily recognize you.
- Contact Info: Please provide a valid email and phone number for password recovery. Note: usernames cannot be changed after registration.
- Verification: After registering, an Admin will verify your status and upgrade you to "Instructor" status. Your profile color will turn orange, and you will gain access to edit the page.
- Support: If your status hasn't been updated within 3 days, or if you forget your username, contact us at: info@harokdim.org.
3 Page Structure
The page includes the following sections:
- A navigation submenu to jump directly to specific categories.
- Flier categories (Free sessions, Couples' Saturdays, Weekdays Sun–Sat, Weekends, Festivals, Radio, International, etc.).
Each flier includes a thumbnail image with 3 short lines of text underneath. In Morning Sessions the day of the week is shown above them, and the category is sorted by day and then by city. Each category header also shows how long fliers stay listed in that category (e.g. "shown for 4 months", or "shown until a week after the event") — see the full breakdown in section 6.

Standard Users
View the page, use quick navigation, and click any flier to view it in full size in a window over the page (close it with the ✕ button, by clicking outside the window, or with the Esc key). Opening a flier reveals additional info you entered (e.g. location, start time, price, notes).
🔍 Enlarge: click the image in the window (or the "Enlarge" button) to show the flier full screen. Click the image again for actual size with scrolling, and once more to fit the screen again. Close with the ✕ button or the Esc key. On a phone you can also pinch to zoom.

Instructors / Admins
Access the floating orange "Edit" button (pencil icon). Clicking it enters Edit Mode. Instructors can manage only their own fliers. Editors can also edit instructors' fliers and replace their images, and Admins can also delete any flier on the page. Admins can also hide a complete category (e.g. Holiday sessions).
🔒 Editors and Admins also see in the flier window (when viewing or editing) who uploaded the flier (with a link to the user's details), the upload date, and when the flier will be removed automatically.

5 Editing Actions
Display: In Edit Mode, the background turns light orange and an "Edit Mode" header appears. You will see a red X (Delete) and a green pencil (Edit Text) on every flier.
Clicking a flier: in Edit Mode, clicking one of your fliers opens it for editing (same as the green pencil). Fliers you are not allowed to edit open for viewing.
Adding a Flier: Click the large "+" icon in the relevant category. You can upload JPG/PNG/WebP files up to 3MB (250KB is recommended). You can browse, drag and drop, or paste using Ctrl+V. PNG and WebP files are converted to JPG automatically, and large files are compressed automatically. Fill in the required fields (marked with *) and click "Save". Price: leave it empty if unknown, enter 0 for free. Choose the currency from the list (NIS / US$ / Other — for Other, type the currency). Some fields are only shown to visitors once they open the flier — the first of them is Hall / location / address (the City field under the image should hold the city only). In Morning Sessions you must also choose the day of the week (required). For a session held on several days, upload a separate flier for each day.
Note: a new flier is uploaded to the server immediately when you click "Save" in the add window. If you then click "Cancel & Exit", you will be asked whether to remove the fliers you added as well.

Editing and replacing a flier: click the green pencil to edit the flier's details. The current image is shown at the top of the window; to replace it, drag a new image, browse, or paste with Ctrl+V (same limits as when adding: JPG/PNG/WebP up to 3MB). The flier gets an orange frame, and the old image is replaced only when you click "Save & Finish". The "Keep the current image" button cancels the replacement.
Note: replacing the image updates the upload date (and therefore the auto-removal date in categories removed by age). The flier stays assigned to the person who uploaded it — even when an Admin replaces the image, the instructor can still edit it and receives the auto-removal email.

Deleting: Clicking the X will make the flier appear faded. The actual deletion occurs only after you click "Save & Finish".
Saving: Changes are only applied when you click "Save & Finish". To discard changes, click "Cancel & Exit".
Shown here: a red "Do not display" badge next to a category header (Admins only, hides the category from the public view), and the floating action buttons — Help, Save & Finish, and Cancel & Exit.
6 Automatic Cleanup
The automatic removal date depends on the flier's category. In categories where an event date is entered, the flier is removed based on the event date only — so events can be published months in advance. In the other categories, the flier is removed after a fixed period from the upload date.
- Special & Couples Sessions — the day after the event date
- Holiday Sessions — one week after the holiday date
- Weekends — one week after the event date
- Festivals — one week after the festival date
- Abroad — one month after the start date
- Free Sessions — 6 months
- Morning Sessions, Weekday Sessions Sun–Sat, and Other Publications — 4 months
- Harokdim Radio — never removed automatically
📧 When a flier is removed automatically, an email is sent to the person who uploaded it (except for Holiday and Abroad fliers), so they can republish it if needed. Please keep your email address on the site up to date.
7 Holiday Sessions and the Holiday Table
During holiday seasons the site also shows the Holiday Sessions table (in Hebrew). The fliers page is its source: every flier in the Holiday Sessions category appears in the table automatically, so a session only needs to be entered once.
What the table shows: from each holiday flier it takes the date (the day of the week is calculated from it), the city, the hall / location / address (in the "Place" column), the instructor, the start time and the price. An empty price is shown empty and a price of 0 is shown as "free". The Notes column shows the free text and the additional notes — up to 50 characters; if there is more, "…" appears with a link to the flier. Clicking 🖼 in the last column opens the flier on the fliers page with all its details, as in the viewer there.
Changes and deletion: any change to the flier (details or a replaced image) and its deletion — manual, or the automatic removal one week after the holiday — show up in the table by themselves. When you add, edit or delete a holiday flier, a message reminds you of this.
On the holiday page: in Edit Mode, a row that comes from a flier has a light green background and a 🖼 mark. It is not edited or deleted there: clicking it shows a message and takes you to the fliers page, straight to that flier's edit window (users who may not edit the flier see it in the viewer). Sessions without a flier can still be added, edited and deleted directly in the holiday table, with its "Edit" button (without a flier link — sessions with a flier are published only on the fliers page). There too: empty price = unknown, 0 = free.
For Admins — opening and closing a holiday season: when you cancel "Do not display" on the Holiday Sessions category, a warning appears. When you click "Save & Finish", the manually entered rows in the holiday table (from the previous season) are deleted, and you are asked for the table titles — line 2 (e.g. the holiday name) and line 3 (e.g. the year). Rows that come from fliers are not deleted. If fliers from the previous season are still in the category (they are removed automatically only one week after the holiday — even while the category is hidden), the warning shows how many, since they will reappear on the page and in the table right away; consider deleting them before opening. When you hide the category, a reminder appears to remove the links to the holiday page from the site; the table itself is not reset.
💡 To keep the table tidy, write only the city in the City field, and the hall or address in "Hall / location / address".
