I have completed a convention card but it does not appear to my opponents

Fill in the "Partner" field when you create the convention card. Then it will automatically be used when you're playing with that partner.

I think the "Use button" in the Convention Cards tab is broken in the HTML version.

I have filled the partner field. What am I missing?

i bet the opponents dont know how to click on the ... to see your card

The blue (with 3 while lines) button has options to show NS CC and EW CC if they are available.

For that, the corresponsing pair must have set up a CC.

as Flash/HTML5 client set CC by pairs rather by individuals, they are automatically used when a pair sits at a table.

Yesterday, I played in virtual ACBL club game. When I clicked the blue (with 2 white lines) button and looked at NS CC, during the game, it looked like it was displaying a default card. Prior to the game, I had setup a convention card with "Use with partners name".

How do I verify before or during a game, that my opponents, my partner, and I are all seeing the right convention card?

If the BBO software assigns the wrong convention card, how do I change it to the correct convention card?

Can a convention card be changed after the completion of playing at a table, but before the starting of the next table?

In the history of the game, is there a way of seeing what convention cards were used?

As of today(April 17, 2020), does the assigning of convention card software work or are there known bugs?

I think the "Use with" button may not work correctly. There are some known problems with the way the convention card editor communicates with the server in the HTML version.

If the convention card has the partner's name in the "Partner" field, that should work.

Thanks for your answer.

Is there a post or a webpage that I can go to, which will explain "known problems with the way the convention card editor communicates with the server in the HTML version"?

Why do you say HTML version? Is there another way of setting up a convention card? Is the other way better? If so, why?

Thanks again.

No, we don't have any public list of known bugs

It works correctly in the old Flash version.

If I want to use the same convention card with two or three BBO Friends how is that done?

I understand that there is a way to link to a Bridgewinners.com convention card -- by posting the URL somewhere in the header of the BBO card.
If that is true, then have one card for the group on BridgeWinners, and use it will the partners you want on BBO.

No, there's no way to do that. It's something I've wanted to add for some time, but we haven't gotten around to it.

I have set up a card. I have matched it to a partner. I did click the 3blue lines. I can see my opponents Card but neither they nor I can see mine.
I'm using the web version on chrome. I also tried the ipad app but no joy.

Is there a way to simply make a copy of an existing CC which then could be edited for particular partners. I thought that one could do something with the favorites card, but it seems to only change the partner.
