Venues

Hi I Dezine,
The steps are pretty simple.

1. Create the venues
2. Create the teams, when doing so you and link a home venue to each team.
3. Create the games, selecting the opponents from the Teams data table, and indicating if the game is home or away, (or linking another venue for a neutral site game.

It’s not that hard, but I believe this procedure is well-covered in one (or more) tutorials available to Gold Support members.

Let me know.

I really appreciate your reply. I’ve donated to you before and, as I said, I have used your wonderful plugins for a long time for this particular client with no issues, so I never found the need to join the gold support.

I believe i’ve completed every step and still no hyperlinks.

See this screenshot for reference. I imported the other venues from game locations but I added this particular one to see if that was the problem. None of them work.

Ahh, okay. The screenshots are VERY helpful. Looks like you are doing everything right, BUT ….

To get the links from the locations to work, you have to do a couple things:

1. There is a Setting on the Venues Settings tab to indicate what you want to link to – no link, the venue URL, or the map URL.

2. If you select the venue URL, you need to add a venue URL to the Venue.

3. If you select the map URL it will use the (default) Google Map generated from the site’s address, OR it will use the custom map URL specified in the Venue table.

Let me know.

Hello again, Mark. Thanks again for your reply.

Yes, I have all of that seclected as you can see in this screenshot…

I’ve tried both map and venue link, google maps long and short code and trying to pull just from the address.

It works fine on the venue’s list page here and even changes to ‘custom link’ when i add a url instead so it’s working but just not on the schedule.

Everything you are doing looks fine to me. But it works fine on the MSTW Dev Site. So let’s go back to basics:

1. What version of WP are you running?
2. What version of the plugin are you running?
3. What theme are you running?

Change your theme to WP Twenty Eleven (or Twenty Twelve) and disable all other plugins, then re-check. Add a new venue, a new team with that home venue, a new schedule with that team, and one new home game on that schedule. (Don’t worry if your screens are janky, just look for the links.)

Let me know. I’m working on an update to S&S right now, so if something needs fixing, I’ll get it in the upcoming release.

Let me know.

wp v 4.2.3
tr v 4.0.1
theme is resportsive

This is a pretty busy site so I will need to do it when it is not as active. I just posted in team rosters as well. Same site.

As always.. thank you!

Okay, cool. Let me know what you find out when you get the chance. I’ll keep looking while I’m working the next release, but it’s working on my sites, and I don’t see that you are doing anything wrong. Hummm.

Hi again, Mark. So, I did the upgrade for S&S and my venues are linking! Only problem is, some of them are not mapping correctly and I no longer have access to the venue’s admin. I’m getting “cheatin huh?” message. I am the admin. Every other thing seems to work ok. *knock on wood*

All the information above is the same except i’m using wp v 4.3.1 now.

Please read (the bottom of) this article.

oh and i looked all through that page too… duh! thanks.

Fixed?

it is. ?? thanks so much.

Great. I will mark this thread resolved.
