iScore Baseball Team Websites

[FTMSupport]

We have released iScore Team Websites with sign-ups through the Admin Website (http://my.iscorecentral.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;). In App purchase of Team Websites will be available with the next update of iScore Baseball.

URL creation is on a first-come, first-served basis, and is in the form http://baseball.iscorecentral.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;<yourcustomname>.

Team Websites are $19.99 / year.

Team Websites allow you to customize the style of the site to match your team colors, create a customized home page, have a Team Calendar, upload images from games, maintain "sponsor links", and automatically synchronize statistics and game data with your iScore database every time you Export.

Direct links to individual games in iScorecast are available to Team Website subscribers.

All of the pages can be used within the iScore Team Website, or you can embed the URLs into your own websites as IFRAMEs, and the data will automatically be updated with Exports from iScore.

We will continue adding to and improving the functionality of the team websites based on the feedback of the iScore Community.

Thank you to those of you that helped beta test the Team Websites before this release.

Is there a sample somewhere to get an idea of what can be done?

[FTMSupport]

We will be putting up a sample soon.

We have already had several people purchase websites if they would like to share the links to what they have done here.

I have done pretty much nothing yet but sign up. So if you want to see what one of the team web sites looks like with just a roster and 2 games worth of data:

I'll be modifying it shortly, however.

Thanks! I really just couldn't get a good picture in my mind of what exactly the site was, but now I see. Pretty cool! Not something I need right now, but I will keep in mind if I do.

Thanks for sharing caged1, that looks great.

Security question...
I see there's a login link. Our coach doesn't want anyone but our team seeing our stats and other details. What sort of security / access features are currently supported and what plans do you have?

Stats question...
I'm currently pasting the HTML stats into a Google site I maintain for the team. What you have here would take away the need for some of that. However, one thing the coach has asked for is separate sets of team stats based on scrimmages, regular season games, tournament games, regular season plus tournaments, etc... I do this now by setting up different leagues and selecting the right combination before exporting team stats. Would the team site allow this kind of slicing-n-dicing as well?

As always, great job FTM. I've had more than one other-team scorekeeper eying my iPhone with envy

There are currently 2 passwords that can be set for the websites. You have the administrator password for configuring the site, and a "team password" that you can use to optionally protect any of the pages. You can have some pages open for viewing to anyone, and some open to just people with the "team password", or you can protect all pages --- it is up to you. We may be adding a 3rd password option soon that is basically a "site admin" that would allow the person to update calendars, the home page, upload pictures, etc, but not have access to anything the owner does not want.

For stats, we will be adding League filtering to the websites very shortly (next few days). As an fyi... you can use any of the pages directly in other websites if they support frames, and all security and styling would carry over to that site automatically.

Is there a way to "co-mingle" the data on the website? i might score one game with my iPad and may score another with my iPhone. Each of these devices have a unique user name. Is it possible to use one website with both devices?

You can use data sharing to transfer a game to the device that is tied to the website and it could then be posted to the website.

Would it be possible to have different pages available with different passwords? For example; a password for the parents to see the calendar, roster and pictures and then a different password for the stats so that only the coaching staff has access to this information.
