Matchweeks

  • Hello, I’ve recently start a league with Football Pool, and the main missing feature that I think that it has is the possibility to group the matches with Matchweeks, and see the scores of every players in each match of the Matchweek in a simple page, because many of leagues (in National or Amateur are groped with Matchweek).

    Have you think about this? It is possible?

    Thank you!

    Hi, first part is possible with matching types. Those are meant for the grouping op matches. This does not work automatically, though.

    The other part is not part of the plugin at the moment. I’ll give it some thoughts for a future version. Thanks for the feedback.

    Thanks @AntonieH!

    One more questions about the group of matches. I would show only one group in the matches page, so the users only bet about the matches of the current week (group in our case). Now it shows all matches grouped, but it would be interesting to show separated by group/week.

    Thanks for your good work!

    Match types have a visibility setting so you can only show the ones you want to display.
    Please beware that this setting also affects the matches view in the admin.

    Another option is to create a page/several pages and create the views using the shortcode for the matches or prediction form. These shortcodes also take one or more match type id’s as a parameter.

    About the score overview for a match week: maybe the shortcode in this post can be helpfull. Or be a basis for you to work with.

    We do matchweeks by setting all matches to start at 3.00pm on Saturday (which let’s face it is the proper time anyway) and setting the cut off for predictions to 36 hours before that which will cater for any Friday games. We then extend the league table using the footballpool_shortcode_html_fp-ranking filter, calculate each player’s score for the latest matchweek, and add that into the league table.
