Tutorial on Using Check-in Groups
I. Feature Introduction
Check-in grouping refers to the ability of operators to manage trainees participating in check-ins in groups.
II. Purpose of Use
When there are a large number of trainees participating in check-ins, you can divide the trainees into several groups and assign a teaching assistant to each group for management, which can greatly improve management efficiency. In addition, teaching assistants can also use the filtering function to select the trainees' diaries in the groups they are responsible for to provide comments, which can improve the efficiency of comment - giving.
III. Use Scenarios
A training institution uses check - ins to launch a trainee check - in activity, but the large number of participants makes unified management difficult. By grouping the trainees and assigning a teaching assistant to each group to comment on the trainees' diaries, the management efficiency of the institution has been greatly improved.
IV. Operation Path
Merchant side: Merchant background → Courses → Interactive Management → Check - in → Check - in Details → Group Management
V. Usage Tutorial
Step 1: Perform grouping operations (Management background)
1. Enter the and select [Group Management];
2. Click the [New Button], enter the group name, and select the corresponding trainees to join the group;
3. You can choose to enable the [Group Isolation Mode]. After enabling, trainees can only view the diaries of other members in the same group.
Step 2: Administrators/Teaching assistants enter the check - in homepage (H5/elink Check - in Mini Program)
Step 3: Filter by group (H5/elink Check - in Mini Program)
Click the filter button to select the corresponding group to view the diaries. (Currently, the grouping situation is only visible to administrators & teaching assistants, and trainees cannot view it.)
How to use the 'Default Rules' for check-ins
I. The function of default rules
Since self-punch-in tasks support custom punch-in rules, there will be a cumbersome operation of configuring punch-in rules for each task separately. To improve operational efficiency, you can use the "Default Rules" to help configure the initial punch-in rules. When creating a new task, the configuration content in the "Default Rules" will be automatically filled in, eliminating the need for repeated configuration.
II. How to use default rules
1. Configure the [Default Rules]
Log in to your elink account. Click [Courses] in the menu bar, select [Interactive Management], and enter the [Punch-in] module. Find the punch-in task you need to operate on, click the [Details] button in the right-hand operation column, enter the punch-in details page, and find [Task Management]. Click the [Default Rules] button to enter the configuration pop-up window and configure the default rules.
2. Apply the [Default Rules]
Scenario 1: As a specification when "students do not select a task for punch-in"
In calendar punch-in, when students do not select a task for punch-in, the punch-in behavior will be regulated according to the "Default Rules".
Scenario 2: As the initial punch-in rule configuration for "creating a new task"
In calendar punch-in/homework punch-in/level-up punch-in, when students select a task for punch-in, the punch-in behavior will be regulated according to the punch-in rules configured for that task. At this time, the [Default Rules] only serve as the initial configuration when creating a new task. Each task can customize and modify the punch-in rules, and the modification will not affect the "Default Rules".
It should be noted that modifying the [Default Rules] will not affect the configuration of existing tasks. It only serves as the initial setting when creating a new task.
How to import trainees for check-ins?
Tutorial on Importing Students for Check-ins
I. Function Introduction
The check-in function supports importing students. There are two import methods: quick import and file import. You can import existing users in the store or create new users for import. After successful import, students will directly gain check-in privileges and can directly participate in the check-in activity.
II. Purpose of Use
On the student side, the check-in import function allows users to quickly participate in check-ins, creating a good check-in experience. On the merchant side, it can reduce labor costs and improve the efficiency of student management.
III. Use Scenarios
When students purchase check-ins offline or through other channels and cannot participate in check-ins directly, and the process of obtaining privileges using invitation codes or redemption codes is complicated. Merchants need to teach and supervise students to obtain privileges for subsequent student management operations, which greatly increases labor costs and is inefficient. Merchants can import students in a unified manner to allow students to directly participate in check-ins and conduct relevant management operations independently, such as grouping.
IV. Operation Path
Merchant side: Merchant background → Courses → Interaction Management → Check-ins → Student Management → Import Students
Student side:
elink Check-in Mini Program: Check-in List

Tutorial on Using the New Version of the Mobile Check-in Feature
I. Upgrade Instructions
Punch-in is a tool that integrates community interaction, interest-based learning, assignment distribution, effect verification, and fun challenges. Currently, to provide a better punch-in experience, a version upgrade is about to be carried out for the mobile punch-in terminals (including the elink Punch-in Mini Program, as well as the punch-in modules in the store H5, elink Learner APP, and elink Learner Mini Program). The following will introduce the upgrade content.
II.Upgrade Content
1.Punch-in Homepage -Highlight the Task Section
After learners enter the punch-in homepage, they will first see the 「Task Bar」. By clicking on the 【Dynamic】 tab, they can switch to the 「Dynamic Bar」. This makes it convenient for learners to know what tasks they need to complete as soon as they enter the punch-in page. At the same time, they can refer to and learn from others' punch-in content with the tasks in mind.
2. Punch-in Homepage - Toolbar Integration
The tools required for punch-in are uniformly placed at the top, and the tool entrances for the two types of interfaces are basically unified. This makes it convenient for learners to discover and use the tools, and also solves the problem of learners' discomfort with multi - terminal operations.
3. Support for Task Calendar
Calendar punch-in supports displaying the task calendar. Learners can see the daily task arrangements and the content available for punch-in in the task calendar, which helps them clearly understand the learning rhythm.
4.More Precise Query of Punch-in Records
Calendar punch-in supports viewing learners' punch-in calendars. Learners can immediately see their punch-in persistence at a glance. In addition to viewing the punch-in records of different dates, they can also quickly make up for the missed punch-in dates. This is convenient for users to have an overall understanding of their punch-in situation and also promotes the completion of learning.
How to configure the clock-in time
It can restrict trainees'joining time for check-ins, and also restrict trainees'actual availablecheck-in time.
I. Joining deadline
Function:Restrict the time for trainees to join the check-in. After the deadline, they can no longer enter/purchase the check-in.
Example:If the check-in activity starts in October and recruitment is carried out one month in advance, set the joining deadline as September 30 and the start time of the check-in activity as October 1.
II. Check-in time
Currently, there are two ways to set the check-in time: 1. Fixed start and end times; 2. Fixed number of days.
1. Fixed start and end times
Function:Suitable for check-ins with a unified progress. There is a fixed time cycle, and all trainees are restricted by this check-in time range.
Example:Activities with limited time, such as the reading plan in January or the daily early rising plan in 2025.
2. Fixed number of days
Function:Suitable for the check-in mode of learning at one's own pace. The specific check-in times of trainees may vary, but the number of check-in days is the same.
Example:To attract traffic, a civil service exam training institution regularly publishes an [Manual adjustment required] (Essay writing question for civil service exams) every week. Each participating trainee has only one chance to get the essay [Manual adjustment required] (Correction) within a week. The institution introduces a new batch of trainees every week and provides each trainee with 7 days for check-ins, which can achieve the business without repeatedly creating check-ins.
