Custom Queries

Each block comes with options available in the settings section of the block.

You can use these options to create custom queries on your data, for example, you can:

Use the Players block to display only the players with the role of “Goalkeeper”, with less than 21 years, that comes from a specific country.
Use the Matches block to display only the matches played in a specific period with “Juventus” as the home team.
Use the Transfers block to display only the transfers with a transfer fee higher than $1000000.
Use the Match Timeline to create special match timelines that include only a specific category of events.
Use the Injuries block to display only injuries with “Meniscal Tear” as injury type.
And more …

The settings section of the blocks includes four categories of options:

Filters used to create custom queries on the displayed data.
Options used to include or exclude elements of the generated layout.
Options used to handle the responsiveness of the layout.
Pagination options.

Create Charts

This plugin makes use of the Chart.js JavaScript library to generate charts based on the stored data.

Currently, there are two types of charts available, a line chart (or area chart) to represent the market value transitions of the player and a line chart (or area chart) to represent the ranking transitions of the teams.

Match Events

Every single event of a match can be registered in Soccer Engine.

The data of the events are an important aspect of the plugin and are used to generate:

Match results
Standings tables
Event Icons
Event Tooltips
Players statistics
Staff members statistics
Referees statistics
Performance data and indicators (E.g. Points Per Match, Average Goals For, Average Goal Against, Etc.)
And more …

Match Timeline

Display the single events of a match with the match timeline layout. For each event will be displayed the time with a high-resolution SVG clock, an image of the player or staff member involved in the event, the team logo, and additional textual information.

Match Commentary

Create a match commentary to update your users with all the details about each single event of the match. This layout is perfect if you want to provide to the visitors extended explanations of the events of a match.

Visual Lineup

This feature allows you to display the players of a team over a high resolution and customizable SVG field. The positions of the players are based on the formation associated with the team and the events of each player are displayed as icons with active tooltips.

Customize Everything

Consistency is a key principle in design, and with the included 63 style options you will be able to:

Customize the colors of each element displayed in all the 33 blocks
Customize the font of the text displayed in all the 33 blocks
Assign custom responsive breakpoints used to switch the layout of all the elements based on the viewport width
And more …

In terms of functionalities with the other 80 options you will be able to:

Allow access to the administrative pages of the plugin only to WordPress users with specific capabilities
Customize the back-end pagination system
Customize the format used to display monetary values
Set the measurement units
Customize the charts
And More …

Import and Export

The import and export feature available in Soccer Engine allows you to archive your data as XML files.

This is extremely useful because:

Works as a backup system for your data (you will never lose any single record)
You can move your data between different websites
You can move your data to other applications

Gutenberg Ready

This plugin comes with 33 Gutenberg blocks, and the behavior of each block can be customized with the options available in the Settings Sidebar.

Multisite Ready

This plugin can be used on a WordPress Network, and supports both a Network Activation (the plugin will be activated on all the sites of your WordPress Network in a single step) and a Single Site Activation (your plugin will be manually activated on single sites of the network).
