MSTW Team Rosters 3.0 Released Today

Version 3.0 of the MSTW Team Rosters plugin contains all the good stuff from version 2.1 – roster tables, single player bios, player galleries, internationalization – plus significant new functionality.

Please read the Installation Instructions, FAQs, Player Gallery and Single Player Pages and Team Rosters Table Shortcode for how to get these page templates working properly. If you have modified the stylesheet or the theme templates, they WILL be overwritten by the new installation, so you’ll want to back them up first.

NEW IN VERSION 3.0

THE CODE IN VERSION 3.0 HAS BEEN COMPLETELY REFACTORED TO PROVIDE SIGNIFICANT NEW FUNCTIONALITY AS OUTLINED BELOW. IF YOU ARE UPGRADING YOU WILL WANT TO READ THE DOCUMENTATION CAREFULLY.

  • Added a filter by team to the “All Players” table on the admin screen (screenshot-1).
  • Added ability to configure table columns and data fields to meet specific application requirements. Show/hide all columns (except Player Name) and change the header/label of all columns and data fields.
  • Provided additional color settings on the Display Settings admin screen, and refactored the code to improve performance.
  • Added the new WordPress Color Selector to the Display Settings admin screen.
  • Added more CSS tags the display code to allow any team’s rosters to be uniquely styled via the plugin’s stylesheet.
  • Added player name format control to the Display Settings admin screen. Several formats are available, perhaps most importantly a first name only format is now available to address privacy concerns with young players.

Happy upgrading!! Please use the WordPress Plugin Forum if you have any questions [or to report any bugs. 🙁 ]
