How to make your game library browse-only
Turn off lending for every game in the library at once: people still see what you have, but can't borrow it.
9 steps with screenshots of the app
A browse-only game library shows which games you have, but doesn't lend them: useful when games are played at your venue or at the event and never leave it. This guide turns off lending for every game at once. If some games are already on loan, follow How to switch a game library from lending to browse-only instead. It works the same for your club's game library and for a Meeplay's: you open a Meeplay's from its page, with the Game library button.
- Have the Meeplay app installed and be logged in to your account.
- Manage an organization on Meeplay. If you don't have one yet, follow the How to create your organization guide first.
- Have a game library with games. If you don't have one yet, follow How to load your club's game library one game at a time.
In each screenshot, what you need to tap is outlined in yellow and pointed out with an arrow.
