Recent Game Results

@itsdarkangel Glad to hear you’re enjoying the plugin! Here’s some code that gets the last 5 events, loops through them and outputs some basic HTML to get you started:

// Define args
$args = array(
	'numberposts' => 5,
	'post_type' => 'sp_event',
	'post_status' => 'publish'
);

// Get events
$events = get_posts( $args );

// Loop through events
foreach ( $events as $event ) {
	// Get event results
	$results = sp_get_results( $event->ID );

	// Loop through teams in the event
	foreach ( $results as $team_id => $team_results ) {
		if ( 0 == $team_id ) continue; // Skip the labels
		?>
		<div class="mywidget-team">
			<span class="mywidget-team-name"><?php echo get_the_title( $team_id ); ?></span>
			<span class="mywidget-team-results">
				<?php foreach ( $team_results as $key => $result ) { ?>
					<?php if ( 'outcome' == $key ) continue; // Skip outcome arrays ?>
					<span class="mywidget-team-result"><?php echo $result; ?></span>
				<?php } ?>
			</span>
		</div>
		<?php
	}
}

This project was actually put on hold, sadly. We didn’t get a chance to try this out since our season started and things got a bit hectic ??

I appreciate you checking in, though.

Hi!

Please set this one as resolved then, it really helps us a lot!

Kind Regards,

Done.

Actually, I’ve started looking into this, again. I guess I’m just a little bit confused on where I would use this code. Should this be placed directly into a php file? If so, how would I access it in a regular page? Or is this supposed to be something I could place directly into a page once I get the correct <?php ?> connotation. (The code Brian gave me starts off in PHP language, but doesn’t open with <?php ?>.

I’m currently running through codeacademy lessons again to try and figure this out myself, but any help would still be very much appreciated. I’ll be checking back to this post a fair amount.

Or would I need to make a new .php document and insert this code? then try to call it when i’m actually editing pages?

Hi!

That snippet is just the loop itself. To call it in a page you can either add it as a shortcode (the easiest option IMHO) or create a new page template, for example and include that code there.

Thanks! This is starting to make a lot more sense now! I’ll give you an update once we give this a full-scale try.

Great!

Let me know if you need anything else in the meantime!
