How do you get the trainer to her proper team. There are 24 total registered to the team already. Would there be a max. Is this why the trainer will not go to the selected team.

David, this is good news as I've done exactly what you describe for our recent Spring League. I left the ITSN owned "Divisions" folder hidden and created a new set of flyouts for our various divisions that "link up" appropriately. I did this as I wanted web visitors who clicked on my division to go to a true home page for announcements, updates, etc rather than to the standings page. This was very easy to do and other ITSN users who might be reading this can view what I've done at -

There is also a cool slide show with music there - again, easy to do with ITSN's product and I will gladly help others who are interested in the same!

I am interested in details for beta testing...I will contact Sara.

Lastly, this is a neat forum for discussions and very useful...I hope it gains momentum!

I appreciate the help

Hi Mike,

This is one of those depends answers : )

Our websites are incredible flexible so you can display multiple seasons from different menus, but you would have to create menus yourself (which is actually pretty easy to do in the editor).

I'm going to use www.cusa.ab.ca as an example as they have seasons going back to Outdoor 2001 (they were our first customer).

You could link the 2001 div 1 standings to a menu item by simply putting a link in for this url:
http://www.cusa.ab.ca/league.php?scri...

You can see in the above url there are pointers to leagueID (ITSportsNet customer identifier), divisionID and seasonID.

So to create a fly out menu for Outdoor 2001 you would simple create a button for Outdoor 2001 and sub-button for each division and point the sub-button to each division standings url. So no matter what your web default season you would still have a menu pointing to the Outdoor 2001 season.

All of our websites have a module indicator which is the scriptName and then id that point to specific data. It makes them incredibly flexible.

We also have a new website editor coming out and are currently looking for beta testers, if you are interested contact Sarah Watason at sarah@itsportsnet.com.

Thanks, David. That clears things up...but can i take this 1 step further. Does that mean it is only ever possible to display schedules and standings on our website for 1 season at a time (the current web season)?? Or will links to a season that has been archived still work...thus permitting display of schedules and standings for more than 1 season (like a Spring League AND a Fall/Winter season) at a time??

Hi Mike,
The Website Current Season tells your website which are the current registration or league management season. If you are not using either of these modules then it has no affect on website. However, if you are using the League Manager module for example and you are using schedules and standings and you are just finishing your Spring season, and you have already entered your Fall Schedule. You would leave the Current Season as Spring to continue to display it. But as soon as you are finished the Spring and ready to post the Fall season you change the Website Current Season to Fall and it will make the Fall season current and will move your Spring Season to the achieve.

OK, this is the solution!

Make sure the url ends in a slash "/", otherwise it will not work.

Hi David,

To register a trainer to a team simply follow these steps:
1. Launch ITRegistrar
2. Search Members - find the individual that you would like to register as a trainer and double click on their name (if this person does not appear return to the opening screen and add this member through the "Add New Members')
3. Click on the registration tab
4. Correctly fill in the drop downs that are available:
Role Type: Team Official
Member Role: Trainer
Select the following dropdowns that correspond to the team that you are trying to register this member for
5. Press the 'Add New" and the registration is complete - it will now appear in the Registration List

Hope this helps,
Ryan

There is a column called sprinkles_root_url in the site_settings table in the database, which should be set to a URL like

http://itsportsnet.com/help

You can update this, for example, using the SQL command

update site_settings set sprinkles_root_url = 'http://itsportsnet.com/help';

What may have happened is that the setup process did not properly detect the root URL, or perhaps someone moved the installation after the setup process was completed.
