    I wasn't, but I went to upload this to my test site which doesn't have any third party content on it and uses the default theme, and I receive this error when trying to use it.

    Download the new version, my fault stupid keyboard remembers what I previously wrote and can quick enter text ( won't do that again )

    Yes please. I may have added to many chat rooms 🥳. 

    you can do it via the ACP for now anyway if you needed it ASAP, Go to your ACP and clubs then click edit on the club, go to the chatroom tab and you can edit / delete it from there

    Thanks for all your hard work on tournaments! Doing great job, wish I could respond to some of these interesting reviews. 😡

    reviews are reviews like everywhere, 2% of people will leave a review if they like what they are reviewing, 90% of people will leave a bad review if they got a issue, and 95% of the 90% will leave a review before they try any support 😀

    It’s more the 21 team limit which is the issue, I do prefer option 1 over 2 tbh. People are more accustomed to the traditional ladder system. I have installed it and will give some feedback in due course.

    Thanks for the addition though, appreciated.

    21 teams can be raised, I think it's about 55 teams what I had worked out for holding, but bare in mind the amount of posts with asking for it this week / wanted it now to start, and when it will be released etc, so 21 teams was the max I was doing if it was to be released this week

    Just out of curiosity @TheJackal84, you chose a pyramid style rather than the standard ladder system.

    Any particular reason for this? You seem to be limiting the amount of teams that can enter and will eventually cause style issues?

    Haven’t updated yet and may be a moot point.

    One big ladder looked ridiculous placed in the middle, there was 3 ways I looked into doing it and this way was the best looking

     

    1st is horrible looking and would use a big page for a tiny ladder what would just be long

    spacer.png

    2nd looks so much better

    spacer.png

    3rds good but I think 2nd is better as it place number 1 on top

    spacer.png

    I have the 3rd one too wrote up to 15 teams but quit that and went for the 2nd

     

    You should still update anyway even if you dont want to use them tournaments I can tell you how to manually remove the option from being picked when creating a tournament

    Thank you for quick replies. @TheJackal84 - is their anyway we can try the demo? I mean through ACP and front end? I registered on your site yesterday to try it out but I didn't got any option to manage it or see it's full feature except front end. Would like to try it out before i go ahead for purchase. If it's 20 bucks, i wouldn't ask for try out but it comes with higher cost so i want to make sure, I can try out first and then purchase. Saves time for both parties. Thank you, once again!

    I don't have a demo site for ACP access etc, the ACP is simple, imagine creating forums, thats what you would do but they are categories for tournaments instead, most of the app is done by tournament creators and moderators with edit permissions for the categories

  7. Updated to 1.0.5

    New Features

    • Added Ladder tournaments
      • Choose from either 6 Teams, 10 Team, 15 Team or 21 Team tournaments
      • Once all teams have joined and the tournament is started it will calculate the order of the ladder by the teams skill with the highest being in 1st place
      • Teams can only challenge other teams who are within 1 tier of them ( example if the team is in teir 3 they can challenge teams in tiers 2 and 4 )
      • Team owners will receive a notification when receiving a challenge from another team
      • If a team rejects a challenge it will show publicy they rejected it
      • Users who sent the challenge have the ability to remove their challenge request ( this is for if another team is ignoring their challenge )
      • Once a team owner sends a challenge they can not challenge another team in that tournament unless it gets rejected / removed or accepted and then the game and been played ( This is not to confuse the placing of the teams )
      • Once a challenge has been sent and then played, the challenger will not be able to challenge that team they just played until they play another team first
    • Changed the joined teams tables in the tournaments to use the tournament stats for wins, loses, draws and their win %, instead of their overall stats
    • Added a create tournament button to the teams homepage
    • Added a create team button to the tournament index page
    • Added the ability to create tournaments without having to add a team to it
    • Added the ability for tournament creators ( or moderators with edit permissions ) to replace teams in tournaments
      • When replacing a team, if that team has played say 3 matches they will not lose their stats from them 3 matches on their teams stats, BUT it will show the newly added teams name on them 3 matches of the tournament itself, the newly added team will not gain the stats from them 3 matches either
    • Added the ability for team owners ( or moderators with edit permissions ) to change a teams owner to another member
      • As well as changing the owner they have 2 more options
        • Leave the team completly
        • Stay on as a team player

    Looks good, chomping at the bit to test. Any ideas as to when it’ll be ready

    With-in a couple of hours it should be released, just doing the last few checks

    What about tournament of chess and others individual sports? Can I set for this skin tournament without team configuration?

    Thank you for quick reply. Do you mean the comments highlighted in SS? 

    yeah they are the ones

    14 minutes ago, AlexJ said:

    Also how does timeline looks? Ex  I can see teams and such .. in below screenshot but is their any chart which shows which team will be competing against which team? 

    once all teams have joined the tournament, the creator will click to start it and in that tournament the last 16 bit will fill up with matches pitting teams against each other ( randomally ), then the winners will progress to the next round, and so on, there is another tournament like english football leagues where it keeps a table awarding points and the teams will face off either once or twice depending the tournament they created

    14 minutes ago, AlexJ said:

    Also is their any option to challenge the teams? Example - 

    1. Team A challenges Team C. Challenge is approved on proposed date - it shows up in Challenge ladder. Each time you win, you keep going up using ELO and when higher rank team looses, they loose the points? A page where top 10 teams are shown? 

    The new update coming includes ladder tournaments what will allow challenging, check this post

    all teams have a skill using the elo rating but it is overall and not per tournament

    Pre-sale question -

    How we do mark the team has won out of 2 teams? If their anyway we can upload sreenshot or files after the match? So basically scores are left and then declare winner?

    the tournament creator has control over the scores and admins / moderators with edit permissions, for proof etc you can use the comments on the tournaments, after the match the person can screenshot the result then embed it into the tournament comments, them comments etc work excatly like these comments with the editor and everything

  11. 11 minutes ago, GazzaGarratt said:

    Can I just check something...as an admin can I also create the teams at all? For instance without me in it?

    the update will allow you to change the teams owner, so if you create a team yourself you will be the owner then you can change the owner to x member and it will replace you with them, Come to think of it, I will add another setting with the option to stay on as a team player, maybe some will want to leave as owner but stay on as a player

    I find that as an organiser if you take the pain away from some people not as used to doing this sort of thing it massively helps - its why I asked a while back for someone to create the functionality of adding and removing members on events because again, behaviour of some means that you have to do that little bit of admin stuff yourself. 

    Admins and moderators with permission have full control over all tournaments etc so if one is not moving along you or a mod can take control of it and sort the matches etc

    Ouch. Toes are a nightmare. Why do they always want to hit the corners of sofas?

    yeah your not wrong, this time it was the corner of my bed when I just getting up ( It woke me up for the day properly though lol )

    Appreciate the update and apologies for chasing you down. Its only because I'm eager as hell to try it out and start talking about it (plus i said I was doing it throughout June, my bad 🙈) Looking forward to updating across the weekend then.

    No problem, I do get a bit carried away sometimes and think I can do it all in one go instead of making you all have to update on a weekly basis etc as there is nothing worse then constantly updating for small things, so I try and put more in them

    9 hours ago, GazzaGarratt said:

    LOLZ. I do see a need for it. Maybe what I see more though with individuals is the need for Leaderboards on specific activities that you could then link into a larger overall Leaderboard. If there was stuff like this for speed runs, time trials, etc. the possibilities could be great for individual competitive fun.

    leaderboards etc is something I have in my notes to look at, highest scores / biggest loss / unbeaten run and so on, The tournament stats will be better in this update, currently the teams joined shows all the teams stats, the update will show the tournament stats for the teams in that tournament only and not overall

    I mean joining tournament without being part of a team :rolleyes:

    that requires lots and lots of rewriting to the tournaments them self and also the database tables, Don't you think that using a team is better than yourself? You could call your team your username lol, It is something I thought about but will be when I have got nothing else on and also have the time to strip it all down adding the member stuff to the tournaments and telling them apart from teams etc

    Looks like a neat addition @TheJackal84 for maybe the hardcore competitive types of communities but I personally wouldn't get much use out of it as it still takes the organisation of the actual games to happen more so than the visibility of a ladder.

    Any news on this update to the Marketplace? Was really expecting it last week based on your previous reply so allocated some time but couldn't do the setup I wanted to. Be good to know what day this week you could pop it up?

    Yeah I got quite a few updates going on at the minute, I been working on this one all week, it is not just the new tournament etc, there is a few new features added and also better coding for other parts, I am hoping to release it at some time tomorrow ( don't help that I broke my toe this morning, 2nd time in about a year looool ) so today I done nothing really, but there is only minor bits left for me to do on it so I will crack on tomorrow as I will be chilling on my sofa 😀

    Sorry, I'm new here, how long is appropriate to wait before reposting? Is everything ok in your life @TheJackal84? I hope so, take care, love your product, would just like to get the errors worked out mate. 

    Thanks, Mark

    sorry mate was meant to get back to you, if it's OK send me a pm with your sites url and login details and I can look into it tomorrow afternoon ( UK time )

     need ladder feature asap. Do you have this in mind anytime soon? If not, can we strike a deal for a fairly quick turn around?

    so this is the how the ladder tournament will look

    spacer.png

    all the matches and challenges will be in the tab, the little paper plane is a send challenge and will pop up confirming they want to challenge the team

    spacer.png

    Once challenged it will send a notification to the team owner saying you been challenged blah blah click here to accept or reject, if they reject then it will show public they rejected it, this way the tournament creator can keep tabs if the number 1 place rejects all challenges

    spacer.png

    if they accept the challenge them tabs will show like the other tournaments where the creator can pick the scores and winners and if the person below wins they will trade places on the ladder, most of the tournament side is done now so just need to do the notifications etc so if all goes well should be released before the weekend

    What kind of timescale are we looking at? 

    can't say for sure, I spent all day on this today but will have work during the week etc so won't be able to do anywhere near what I done today in the next few days, I still got a few hours left of today anyway so will see how much I can get done tonight, I got 6 and 10 team ones done already so still need to do 15 and 21 but the base of the code is done that is the hard part

    Staff would need to confirm the tournament as ready for the ladder tournament to appear, whether 2, 4, 6, or 8 teams etc. have entered. I would be looking for option to end after x amount of games played for example as a setting, or continues ladder tournament or end after set date. Never ending is good, but if someone wants to join the ladder tournament, the ability to join an existing ladder tournament would be welcome.

    Would be handy for world record scores for example, ability to set up a ladder and allow people to join and submit scores but would need to be able to supply evidence via a video, screenshot etc & then be approved. Not necessary at this stage but something for it to be added too in the future?

    I am starting with 6, 10, 15, 21 teams for ladder tournaments ( gotta have neat ladders ), once a team sends a challenge out then they can't challenge until either the challenge is accepted and played or the challenge is rejected, If the challenge is ignored they will have the ability to remove it so they can send another to someone else

    With the submitting of scores etc that is all down to the tournament creator, if they want they they can use the comment sections for the users to the embed videos or images etc, they can add it to the tournament description under rules etc that to get your score added you need to post whatever it is you will require

    Oh and you will be able to challenge 1 tier above and 1 tier below where you are

    See this ladder tournament, I been thinking about it and the way I will try to do it is,  Create a ladder tournament, once all teams are entered in it we will generate the ladder, The ladder will be ranked by their current points rating ( If they aint played a match it will be default 1200 ), It will be a tournament where they can challenge teams X places higher ( X being set by the tournament creator ) if they beat that player they will change positions with them, and it can last forever without ending. How does that sound?
