    First of all, congratulations for this plugin which is just great and easy to integrate

    I would like to make a modification.

    Currently the goal difference bonus is only for matches with a winner. I would like to add it for a draw

    For example :
    True result: 1-1
    Prediction: 0-0

    In the above example, I would only have the points for the correct result.

    I would like to know how to get: the points for the right result and add the goal difference bonus.

    Not sure if it still works, but here is an example on how to do this.

    Great it works

    @antoineh I activated this plugin. Should it be reflected in “help” tab in “Points” section?

    I can still see there only totopoints if there was a draw (for example real result was 1-1 and user predicted 0-0)

    @elmariachi09 The texts on the help page are static, so it won’t show that you changed the calculation method and that you now also award the diff points for a draw. But if hover over the total points in the table, then you can see the actual value that the calc function returns.

    @antoineh thank you.

    One more thing.
    With this plugin enabled when there user predicts 2-0 and result was 2-0 it gives 1 extra point to full points.
    Can this be changed?

    I have 3 points for full points, 1 point for toto and 1 point for goal diff.
    And now when user predicts correctly it gives 4 points instead of 3.

    But in case of a draw I would like to give 2 points when there is 1-1 and prediction was 0-0. Can I do this?

    When having the correct score the points for toto and goal diff are also added! This can’t be correct… How to solve this please?

    It seems to be correct. In the help I found for the calculation for the correctly predicted match result:

    full points plus two times the goal bonus for the correct amount of goals for the home team and the away team.
    total = 5 + 1 + 1 = 7

    With the extra plugin also the the points for the goal diff are added, in my case it’s 1 point.

    So the total score becomes 5 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 8.

    @elmariachi09 It can be changed in the extra plugin that you installed. The calculation method is pretty straightforward, but still it requires a bit of PHP knowledge to change.

    @antoineh I am not familiar with php very much but will take a look into the code.
    Any hint where to look? I assume it is only to change value to zero for adding points where fullscore points were assigned, right?

    edit: I think it was enough to just substract one point for full scores in plugin options and now it should be ok.
