Introduction
What is absolutely great about this product is we have practically made it a white label solution. Actually there is nothing a client has to do to be able to use it.
However to make it look perfect there are some aspects we either suggest to do or simply ask for, so we can adapt it as much as possible to the client's needs.or
Below there is a list of things we encourage you to deliver that will allow us to provide a solution that we can be fully proud of.
Logo
Left part of the header is dedicated for the league or federation logo.
The file should be in PNG format with a transparent background, preferably a horizontal version (if available). Minimum height of a file is 60px.
Look and customization
During the integration process our Creative Department will prepare a customized design for you. It's going to be adjusted to your preferences, very often to the layout of the existing website.
We are able to change elements like: logos, icons, fonts, colours, sizes, background colour or background picture.
We are also open to proceed with a layout prepared by your graphic designers. We are very flexible and open for cooperation.
Favicon and title
The product looks better in a browser when the page has a favicon and it's title that's why we suggest to our clients to send us the file and the information. This setting is visible on every page you visit.
Photos
In the Players and Venues tabs there is a place for photos. It is up to you whether you want the players headshots and the pictures of the venues to be shown in your product.
It is a certain fact though - it does look much better having them.
Languages
We offer a full package of languages, however if your website is dedicated for only one country you can always let us know (you may wish to have only one language).
LeagueCenter automatically adjusts the language of the website. The system tries to find the language of the browser and then sets the proper one on the website.
If the user picks the language by himself then this configuration will be saved in his browser and remembered afterwards for all other changes.
One of the languages needs to be chosen as the default one when you enter the site form a country thats language is not on offer in the LeagueCenter. Then the default language will be set. English is as default, however it can be changed on request.
The order for adjusting the website language is as follows:
- Language set by the user
- Language set by automatic adjustment (based on the browser's language settings)
- Default language set by the system administrator
Time zones
There is a select tab with time zones in the header and the user's browser will detect the proper time zone and set it automatically.
If the user picks the time zone by himself then this configuration will be saved in his browser and remembered afterwards for all other changes.
It is possible to define one time zone only. In cases where the product is dedicated for users from only one country, just hide the select tab, as it will now have no purpose.
Sports
It is possible to have multiple sports in one product (but one needs to be set as default).
With an option of more than one sport, a select tab will appear next to the logo in the header.
Competitions
For every client there are a different number of competitions provided. For a league owner it will be just one competition, however for a federation it could result in several competitions being provided.
The number of competitions is decided during the integration process. This list can be changed.
If multiple competitions are provided a default one needs to be set while the other ones can be chosen by the select tab just below the header. If only one competition is provided the select tab will only have an informative function.
Seasons
We provide the current season of each competition as default plus three past seasons if requested and if we do have them in our database (depends on competitions chosen).
Past seasons can be chosen by the select tab that happens to be next to the competition select tab below the header. If only one season is provided the select tab will only have an informative function.
Twitter accounts
We set up official competition's twitter account as default and it's visible on all tabs apart from LIVE, TEAMS and PLAYERS.
On other 5 tabs it's up to you to use our default setting or to use twitter accounts you wish to have. If you want to use your own selections just send us twitter links and information on which tab to display them.
If more than one twitter account is displayed on one tab, then they would rotate on refresh of the page.
9th Tab in Menu
There are 8 tabs in the menu where for the content we are responsible for. However our clients are being given a choice of adding 9th one by themselves.
