Spreading Your Site

10

Admin View vs. Public View

When you log into your site as an admin, you have a different view than people who visit your site in the public view; your view contains add and edit icons, which allow you to update information

When people visit your site in the public view, they will be able to view and access all information, but will not see add and edit icons

The Scores/Stats tab is the perfect place to add game scores and track stats

Step 1 – Add Season

Add a season in the seasons tab (include team name and season name). If you see the team’s sport in the SPORT tab then it means you can keep stats for that team. If not, it means you can keep track of scores for the team, but not stats.

59

Step 2 – Add Players

If stats are offered for a team, then add its players next. If stats are not offered, you can skip this step.

60

Step 3 – Add Opponents and Scores

As games are played, add opponents in the VS column and results in the RESULT column

61

Step 4 – Go to Stats

If stats are offered for the team’s sport, then click the GO link next to a game to add game stats

Step 5 – Add Stats

Add individual game stats for each player – you can do this yourself, or give players the option to add their own stats

63

Stat Input Setting

At the bottom of the GAME SCORES AND STATS area, you will see a Stat Input Setting area, which lets you decide if players can update their own stats or if only site admins can do so

64

Totals

As stats are kept each game, we will automatically keep track of season totals for each player and for the whole team in the STAT TOTALS section
