Hi,

Change match status to "result"

Hello 

How Can automatically calculate the match results from the match events already entered?

Hi, 

Such functionality is not available yet. But it is planned.

hi is there a way to hide the matches that have been played to avoid a build up old matches on the page thanks 

Hi,

On which page you want to hide matches?


hi is there a way to hide the matches that have been played to avoid a build up old matches on the page thanks. I asked this question above. 

the page I refer to is the one where you paste the short code to see the standing table. when you add matches the page becomes very over crowded if you add more then 10 matches. is there any why to hide the matches once played or something to de clutter the page with played games ? 

thanks Alex 

Hi,

You can create any page you want with the help of shortcodes.

Check Matches shortcode. It has a "limit" parameter to show limited number of matches.

Question

Can you hide the half-time score?

If want to hide it in the default match header, add this CSS code 


.match__sup-result .match__sup-result-item {
visibility: hidden;
}

Hello, how can I customize pages such as /player/, /match/, /stadium/ and so on? They are not in pages so I guess they are added by the plugin itself, so how can I customize them?

Hello,

These pages are generated automatically.

In the free version, you can override templates from the plugin template folder (PHP knowledge required).

The Premium version has Layout Builder for this purpose.

Also, you can use the plugin WordPress hooks. 

For example - https://anwppro.userecho.com/en/knowledge-bases/2/articles/1039-reorder-match-sections-hook

Thank you for your reply!

Hi, how can I add pagination on my page. For example I have shortcode for matches on my Matches page and I want to show 20 matches per page instead of showing them all on one page. Also I'm using OceanWP theme. Thanks in advance!

Hello,

Unfortunately, the plugin doesn't have pagination functionality.

But you can use different shortcodes for game grouping. 

For example - https://anwppro.userecho.com/en/knowledge-bases/2/articles/167-matchweeks-slides-shortcode

Hello Andrei, 

There is sort of a glitch, we have added a certain league "Spain Primera Division 2020-2021" and the live match isn't displaying the following match on the page "Getafe - Celta De Vigo" as we should be getting the match data from API but we're not seeing the data on the page, what could be the problem with this?

Maybe you have an incorrect game time.

Try to run the "Update Kickoff time" action for this competition. 

after all my adds of clubs and leagues with the instructions .. all the results of matches and upcoming matches will show automatically or not?

hi, i can't change the active season. 

All the "Settings" section is unchangeable

Зравствуйте! 

Вопрос нубский конечно, но не увидел сколько стоит премиум-версия и как это происходит? Возможно-ли оплатить из РФ? Никакой криптой не пользуюсь? На сколько сайтов я могу получить преиум(тестовый и рабочий домены разные). Премиум - 1 раз и "навечно" или какая-то периодичность(вроде абон.платы), вроде премиум на полгода/год?

Продажа осуществляется только через платформу freemius.com

По оплатам они работают, насколько я знаю через PayPal и Stripe, поэтому из РФ оплату произвести проблематично.

По планам вся информация тут - https://anwp.pro/football-leagues-premium/

How do I make sure that the log table, fixture and results are shown on my website?

Hi Admin,

I am starting up a league.
Now I have 10 teams, so I need 180 matches to be played.

When I want to "start the league" Do I have to put one by one each mach?

Or is there a bottom to press so it does it for me? otherwise it will take long.


Regards and thanks for the help/program, it looks great!
