Configure Event Results for Darts

Hi!

I’m not sure if I get your issue there. Would you mind pasting the link to your website here, so we can check it out?

Hi Roch,
The site with Sportspress is in developement (Obviously), I had to switch my domain pointer in order for you to see it. I will need to switch the pointer back to the current site by Wednesday our league night, for the membership.

That being said, here is a link:

Apparently the link wysiwyg does not function as intended…
https://sfdl.org/standings-a-division/

For instance, on this page, this event has happened and is showing the results:
https://sfdl.org/event/107/

Instead of the Wins and Legs columns, I want it to show Wins and Losses Columns

Then on the standings it should reflect the wins and losses from this one event AND the previous events Wins and losses.

As is, it is showing the event (107) was won by “The Expendables IV”, for which they get 1 win. And the previous event (86) in which “The Expendables IV” won 11 to 4, they get 1 win, to total 2 wins.

What I think should be seen instead is “The Expendables IV” won 8-7 over “Red Jacks” and 11-4 over “Two Legs Up”, thus wins should be 11+8=19 wins and losses be 7+4=11 losses.

Additional Info: Our league divisions operate on 2 different total games per event. In A division we play 15 total games, so there is no draw or tie.
In our B, C and D division we play 13 total games.

Hi!

Let’s fix the standings first as it appears to be more complex.

In your case, I believe there is a ambiguity in the terminology of “wins” and what SP calls wins. For SP a win is who ends the event (which is unique, so for example event 107 Expendables won). But in your league you have multiple matches inside of an event so you are actually using wins as another word for points (like goals in soccer).

What we’ll need there is another “win”, besides the match outcome that can be used for your league table. I don’t know how you are doing it right now, but under SportsPress > Configure you’ll create a new event results variable (if you don’t have it already) for wins (you may want to use plural there so you know which one is which) then under table columns you’ll display that win instead. Same thing about loses.

The other stats (like the points) will stay the same.

let me know how it works this way!

I’m a tad confused about the configuring the new “Wins” in event results.
I see Points has: win × 2 + draw, I really don’t get how the math calculations take effect. Is this the math I want for my wins? Also would losses be loss x 2 + draw?

Also in the events results I can’t choose win only an operator and a number.

Hi!

You won’t change your points, or anything that is correct right now.

What you need to do is to add a new event result (let’s call it event-win, since you can have multiple event-wins and just one “win”). You’ll just add that name, no need for formulas.

Then go to any of your events and add data so you can see how it works.

Now back to SportsPress > Configure and edit the “Win” you have right now. Delete win and add event-win (for).

Just to clarify, the last step is referring to the table columns.

I’ve gotten the wins to show the right wins, same for losses, but now the percentage is calculating wrong. I have Event-Wins (For)/Played (what I don’t see is the matches played. I also tried: Event-Wins (For)/Event-Wins (For) + Event-Wins (Against)
Both calculated the wrong percentages.

OK I have the percentages calculating correctly now… I was missing the brackets: winsfor ÷ ( winsfor + winsagainst )

Is it possible to have the columns pre-sort on Percentage top descending? This way the teams are in their proper order.
