New update to GolfBox Tournament

We are now ready with a new update to GolfBox Tournament. Below you can see what this update contains.

New things

Entries

• A new feature has been added to manage teams in competitions. In this function, it is possible to edit several teams at the same time, which, among other things, should make it easier to move players between teams.

Start List

• You can now edit a group entry in competitions where players can choose the start time upon entry.
• When editing the start list in competitions, where players can select the start time upon entry, you can now delete start times.
• In connection with registration for the competition, where players can choose the start time upon entry, you can now add other players.

Results

• The mobile scoring page now displays a warning if you are about to leave the page without saving your changes.
• The mobile scoring page will now expect the admin to enter hole scores in sequence, which for example should prevent one from entering scores on hole 18 when only holes 1, 2 and 3 have been played.

Livescoring

• The way navigation works in Livescoring has changed. This should mean that navigation will now work on pages with a Base tag in the HTML document. The other implementations should of course be unaffected.
• The status box in Livescoring is now updated at the same time as the leaderboard data (most often from the update timer).
• The Livescoring site will now fall back on the English language instead of giving an error if you try to use an unsupported language code.

Slideshow

• You can now put a "ticker" text in your Slideshows, which will run at the bottom of each slide from right to left.

Fixed things

Start List

• An error has been fixed where you could not put players on added start times in competitions where players can choose start time upon entry. This has now been fixed.
• We have made some small changes to which round has been unfolded from the start when you open the Start list page so that it is the "active" round that is being unfolded.

Results

• In the mobile scoring, an error occurred if a team name had special characters. This has now been fixed.
• An error has been resolved where the score entry window could not be opened for teams with double-quote in the name of the Ryder Cup and Team match play competitions.
• A recent change in Chrome (version 85) made it impossible to log in to Player scoring. This has now been fixed.

Livescoring

• In Livescoring, hole scores for Foursome scorecards in "Team match play" competitions were mistakenly displayed next to the first player on the team, instead of between the two players (as is usually shown elsewhere). This has now been fixed.
