    Sunday League Football Club using Sporticus

    • Used the fantastic sporticus for the redesign of the site for my amateur football club. Still got a couple of sections to add but any feedback would be appreciated.

    • Oh yeah, forgot about that - will do. Thanks.

      Edit - Used a photoshop plugin to generate the favicon. Doing it this way enables you to do transparant bg's.

      Thanks for the tip on the icon plugin. Just what I've been looking for! Your site is beautiful. Wonderful job.

    • Very nice header, and a good idea to have the mini table and top scorers in user 5 position. It gives you a good overview of the most important features.

      But best of all, in my humble opinion, is the stats. Prestwich CC Football Club may be an amateur football club, but the stats and the player presentations (with Player Stats, Last opening squad appearances and so on) on the website sure look professional. How have you done this?

    • Hi there, thanks for your feedback. The stats are generated using a couple of scripts:

      TPL Soccer Stats www.tpl-design.com/tplsoccerstats/index.php
      This is for the fixtures, results and player stats.

      I've done quite a bit of editing to the script to get the presentation as I wanted, then sorted out the css to match the rest of the joomla template and used the wrapper to display on the site.

      TPL League Stats www.tpl-design.com/tplleaguestats/index.php
      This is for the league tables and league stats (although still doing a couple of css mods to this therefore not showing on the site just yet).

      The next match, last match, top scorers and mini-table are all add-on scripts that you can download when you purchase the script. These are then just included in a few mod_wrappers.

    • Unfortunatley, I have no knowledge at all of basketball so it'd be wrong for me to advise either way. However, TPL league stats is free and, albeit designed from scratch for football (soccer), may be able to be modded for the game of basketball. Likewise, there's also a free version of TPL soccer stats as well that you could download and play around with if you're any good with php & mysql.

      Failing that, there's the Liga Manager Online script in the extensions section of the official Joomla site. That says the script can cater for basketball leagues. extensions.joomla.org/component/option,c...nk_id,318/Itemid,35/

    • All pretty much done now. Added the league competitions stats, league season stats and league head-to-head stats and added the plogger gallery. (All wrapped)

      I've used a hack on the original wrapper ( www.seismicos.com/content/view/58/41/ ). The problem was on the stats pages, if you clicked a link on a wrapped page that was below the 'fold' on your screen then the user has to scroll back up to the top to start looking at the linked to content. This hack automatically returns the page back to the top - which is cool.

      Then on the gallery I had the reverse of this problem. When a user clicks on the prev or next links to view the next photo, the page was returning back to the top - where in this instance, I'd rather have the page stay where it was.

      Solution. Created a new directory in components and called it com_wrapper2. Uploaded the core (un-hacked) Joomla wrapper in to the new folder and renamed the files wrapper2.html.php and wrapper2.php. Went in to phpmyadmin, found jos_menu and edited the record for my gallery menu item to link to 'index.php?option=com_wrapper2'. Works a treat!
