If you are a Parade Lieutenant, you will have the responsibility of assigning all of your riders to specific float positions. Chainlink makes float assignment easy using our interactive drag and drop feature. To assign riders to float positions, follow the steps below:
- Navigate to Parade > Floats
- From the Floats Overview page, you will be able to see all of the floats you have been assigned to.
- Click the purple Assign Float Positions button and you will be brought to the Rider Position and Float Assignment page.

- To assign a rider to a float position, simply drag a name from the unassigned members area on the right and drop their name in the float position you want them in.
- All of the riders assigned to your Lieutenant will appear on the unassigned members list.
- If that rider has paid all of their dues, the person icon will turn purple, but if they have not finished paying their dues, the icon will turn red.
- Note: You can assign float positions and save your layout even if you have riders that haven’t paid their dues in full. This is just a reminder that they must complete all dues payments in order to ride in the parade.
- To remove a rider from a float position, simply click their name and they will be removed from that position and return to the unassigned members list on the right.
- Once you have finished editing your float assignments, click the Save button above the unassigned members list and your layout will be saved.
- Note: You can always come back and make more edits to your float layout, you do not need to finish assigning all riders a spot before saving your layout.
- You also have the ability to export a CSV file with your float assignments and rider information by clicking the Export button. This might be useful when you have finished assigning all rider positions and want a finalized list outside of the Chainlink Marketing Platform.
