Schedule options

This page contains information regarding options you have for customizing schedule pages on your website.

You can customize your schedules in two different ways:

Apply a change to every schedule on your site. To do this you would want to edit the main options file: /options
Apply a change to specific sports schedules. To do this you would edit the sport specific options file: /sports/SPORT/options. For example to edit the schedule options for men’s basketball you would go to: /sports/mbkb/options

To adjust the schedule options, click edit content on the appropriate options file, click the Add button at the top, then click add next to the option you want to add. From the editing screen, you can click Remove next to an option to remove it or use the selector within the option to choose your setting for that option (true/false, on/off, etc.)

In the backend of some older sites you may find the options file in the Design subtab instead of the Content subtab.

Some available options include:

Schedule: enhanced layout - This layout is enabled by default on Themes 2.0 websites. To disable it, add this option and then select no. To enable this layout on Legacy or Themes 1.0 websites, add this option and then select yes.
Themes 2.0 standard schedule layout

Themes 2.0 enhanced schedule layout example

Schedule: show team logo - Use this option to show or hide opponent logos. This option only works for network sports.

Schedule: hide exhibition - This will allow you to hide or show events marked as exhibition or scrimmage. These events will still be accessible through the GameDay tab.

Schedule: Next Event Countdown

This countdown displays by default on schedule pages on Themes 2.0 websites. You can disable the countdown by enabling the option and setting it to false. You can view an example of this countdown area on this page.

Schedule: restrict links? - By default, we'll restrict links based on the status of the event. For example, we'll automatically unpublish Live Stats links once the event is marked as final. Set this option to "false" to always show all events links on your schedule page.

Schedule: Show Game Leaders- Enable this option to display team leaders in multiple stats categories after stats are uploaded for games. This is only available when using the Schedule: enhanced layout option. You can see an example of this display on this page. On a live site it will show the player’s headshot instead of the site logo like it does in this example.

Sidebar: Display - Use this option to enable a sidebar that displays on schedule pages. This option is only available on Themes 2.0 websites. More information regarding the sidebar component and how to enable it can be found on this page.

Schedule: include time zone- Add this option to show the time zones on your schedule. You'll have the option to choose "Local" or "Site" time. The Local time zone option will show the person’s time zone that is viewing the schedule page. The Site time zone option will show the time zone that is used by the website.

Adjusting fields - You can use schedule options to customize the fields and labels on your schedule pages for individual sports, such as cross country. Follow the "Individual sport schedule layout" instructions below.

You can find instructions for adjusting these options in this Help Center page.

Adding these two options allows you to customize the fields that display on your schedules:

Schedule: Fields
Schedule: Labels

You need to list out the fields/labels you want to appear using a comma to separate each one. The number of fields must match the number of labels. A couple things to note about this:

If you want both opponent fields to show you would have to use "team_away" and "team_home" rather than "opponent" (see list of available labels below).
If you want notes/neutral site/links to appear on a second row you would list this out at the end of the "schedule: field" and "schedule: labels" fields, treating it like a separate column. The " _" before the label is how the template knows to put it on a second row. For example:

Schedule: Fields - date,team_away,team_home,status,links,_neutralsite
Schedule: Labels - Date,Team(s),Event,Status,Links,Neutral

Even though NEUTRAL is not a column label, you still need to add it so the number of fields & labels are the same.

Adding a "+" is how you would get two fields to show in one column.

For example:
opponent+neutralsite rather than "opponent: :neutralsite"

Available labels:
date
opponent
opponent+neutralsite (prints both fields in one column)
result
status
result+status (prints both fields in one column)
notes
links
team_away (used in manual schedule for listing out all the team names)
team_away_result
team_home
team_home_result
team_away+team_away_result
team_home+team_home_result
teams+result (each team and their result in one column)
_notes (notes on a separate table row)
_neutralsite (neutral site on a separate table row)
_notes+neutralsite
_links (links on a separate table row)
venue
location
venue+location (prints both fields in one column)
