Composite Files

In both the root directory ("home" page of the Website tab) and in all of the sports sections (/sports/SPORT/) you will see a file called "composite". This is a schedule: view file that powers all of your scoreboards, upcoming events, calendars, and scoreboard tickers. Within the composites are different views set to power each component listed above.

Be sure to check that your composite schedule only has one season's worth of schedules in there. Remove any old schedules out of it. Having too many schedules connected to this file can cause issues with your Scoreboard component and other areas of the website loading.

For every sport schedule in the composite schedule, make sure there are events in there first. If the schedule is empty when linking it to your composite it could cause errors.

You can contact our support team through this form if you are unsure of which views power different areas of the Scoreboard component.
