I can help you craft some SQL to add the columns you wish.

The link - http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/standings is useful. I might need a little more explanation of some of the column meanings (e.g. L10, Road ?)

I'll email you directly to sort things out.

Ian.

I'm really happy with the fantasy football plugin.

I run a baseball site and I'm using your plugin for guessing game results of MLB.

Once, I managed to edit the plugin file and get the teams standings table to look more like a normal baseball standings (example: http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/standings) but everytime the plugin is updated all my changes are gone, of course, as it is supposed to happen.

Maybe you can help me in creating a different php file or code so I can show the baseball standings.

The code I used for the teams standings got it from here: http://www.theblog.ca/games-behind-php-mysql Except that I included a percentage column right between the loss column and the games behind column. Win percentage is easy to calculte= wins/(wins+losses) in 3 digits form after the decimal point.

Thanks Ian,

Peter

What is the problem you are having ?

The displayed dates come from MySQL, so you need to change the MySQL locale to Spanish then all the dates and times will be in Spanish.

For more info see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/locale-support.html

You should only need to set

sql> SET global lc_time_names = 'es_ES';

from your hosts control panel to make it work.

The problem is that the game is in spanish. I know there's a "po" and "mo" file, but still the dates are shown in english format, I need them to be in spanish.

I'm talking about the prediction form. In the prediction form the date of the match reads as: "Saturday 24th December 2011" And I need it to be read as: "Sábado 24 de Diciembre de 2011"

Where can I do that?

Greetings,

At the moment the prediction form, http://ianhaycox.com/worldcuppredictor/football-league-prediction-form/ only allows for score entry.

I will add this feature to my list for the next version and maybe implement it. For now it is not possible.

For example Tottenham vs Bolton 1 (meaning Tottenham wins)
Manchester United vs Chelsea x (meaning its a draw)
Arsenal vs Wolves 2 (meaning Wolves wins)

Can that be done? does the Championship Predictor do that? I am really interested in buying it, but unfortunately only if has that cabability.

Please answer ASAP,
Andy

Ian.

All the pages are displaying correctly, but when I add a widget to my site it list the users in reverse order with the User with the least points at top and the User with the most points at the bottom.

Wondered if anyone had a solution to this please.

Regards

I've been testing the plugin and, in my site at least, the only browser I'm able to save my predictions is with Firefox, it won't work with the other browsers. I've made some tests and they don't work.

Any ideas on how can I fix this? Thank you...

I've installed the plugin here: http://planeta-beisbol.com/predicciones/ (I'm just doing some tests)

The match schedules, group and results tables should work OK.

Ian.

Is it possible to use your tool for the rugby worldcup ?

I do have a quiz plugin that is similar to what you have at the moment, but it requires knowing the answers when the quiz is set, rather than afterwards. It would need modification to be able to update the points assigned for each quiz question after a closing date then calculate each users scores.

Alternatively I could modify the fantasy football plugin to allow the selection of win/draw rather than enter goals.

Or of course write something specifically for your requirements.

Email me ian.haycox at gmail dot com or via http://ianhaycox.com/contact and we can discuss the alternatives.

I have a small fight league setup based on UFC predictions. Just now I post up the fights, and the guys picks who they think will win, or if they think it will draw.

After the event I download all the results into a CSV and manually post up the results and publish them into Google Docs.

Predictions made here: http://www.stevieb.net/UFC/system/index.php?sid=99857

Do you think your plugin could be utilised in a similar way? Just now everything is manual and very time consuming, anything that will help me save time is a massive bonus! I have bought a dedicated domain for the project, so hopefully your plugin can help streamline things for me!

Cheers

Steve

With the World Cup now finished, this plugin is no longer used.

It may be modified for the European Championships in 2012 and of course the World Cup in 2014.

To predict Football league games, see http://ianhaycox.com/worldcuppredictor.

Please use the http://ianhaycox.com/forums/forum/football-league-predictor forum.

For that reason it is necessary for you to enter the teams, fixtures and scores yourself. Not all the fixtures need to be entered up front, you can do those week by week. The entry form for users is easily configured to display from 1 to many weeks in advance, so there is no pressure to enter all fixtures in advance.

Just wondering if the football league predictor works with the
Championship and whether or not it updates the scores/fixtures
automatically?

It's a completely separate plugin with a different name and database tables. The WCP is untouched.

The plugin operates in a very similar way to the WCP but manages leagues, rather than knockout competitions.

Ian.

The SQL order by clause was screwy. I think you will find that all the July matches will appear at the bottom.

No harm done :-)

Any suggestions as to why? No problems with the earlier rounds, just this one
