New team custom fields and custom icons

This release includes two new WordPress filters which may be used to add custom team text fields and custom team social icons. These works identical to the custom player fields and social icons, except for teams. You can find out how to add your own from our online documentation.

Tournament brackets now include headers in each column to indicate which round the matches belong.

Bracket round headers.

Tournamatch version 3.21 is now available.

Highlights

• New option to permit multiple player teams per ladder
• Completely revamped email messaging and styling
• Faster loading list pages
• Compatible with PHP 8

New option to permit multiple player teams per ladder

We added a new option to allow players to participate on multiple teams per ladder. This setting is disabled by default and can be found in the WordPress Tournamatch Admin -> Settings, under Ladder Match Settings.

Completely revamped email messaging and styling

Tournamatch is not an email styling plugin. We removed the settings to adjust the various colors as well as the custom Tournamatch email templates. Email messages are now plain text. You should instead use an actual email styling and template plugin which will allow you to customize much more than we previously supported, including adding a logo the the message header, adding a footer message, colors, font sizes, and more!

Faster loading list pages

We updated the backend REST API extensively so that now all of our list pages are displayed asynchronously. The result is less code, faster page loads, and future extendibility.

Compatible with PHP 8

Tournamatch has been updated to be compatible with PHP 8. This required renaming a few classes which used reserved keywords. Enjoy!
