v0.19.0 - Testing
🚀 * New Feature - Style Editor: click any Football Leagues element on your pages and change its colors, fonts, spacing and borders per device, with a live preview.
🚀 * New Feature - User Access: choose which roles can view, edit and delete each content type, with extra access for single users, presets and a review before saving. It replaces Edit Access and keeps your choices.
🚀 * New Feature - Game Events: your own event types (timeout, blue card, corner) with a name and icon, or the Futsal / Football presets. They show in the game editor, Commentary, Timeline and Lineups, and can be counted in statistics.
🚀 * New Feature - Sponsors: club sponsors with logo, link and tier, plus per-game sponsors with their own label ("Presented by", "Match ball").
--- Live games and game pages ---
🟢 * Add - Penalty Shootout redesign with a kick grid by round and live updates, and a live progress bar on the Game Timeline.
🟢 * Add - Game edit history: admins see who changed what and when on each game.
🟢 * Add - Yellow and red cards for coaches and team staff.
🔵 * Update - Game Countdown is now also a shortcode, follows the Countdown Type setting (Modern by default) and has font size options.
🔵 * Update - A Live accent color for the live score in the Classic game header.
--- Design and pages ---
🟢 * Add - Palette colors for standing zones and result tints, with a "Match Kadence palette" option. Border and gray colors now reach tabs, sliders, stats tables, brackets and commentary.
🟢 * Add - Layout Builder v2: coach and staff pages (coaching record, career, formations and 10 more blocks) and a Staff block on team pages.
🟢 * Add - Stable fls- CSS classes on standings, match lists and headers, so your custom CSS survives plugin updates.
🟢 * Add - Social links for Telegram, WhatsApp, Threads, Bluesky, Twitch and Discord, with a new icon set that works on dark layouts.
🔵 * Update - 140 country flags redrawn to match the official flags.
🟠* Fix - Block themes like Twenty Twenty-Five: plugin pages sit in the content area, with no empty "Written by" line.
--- SEO and access ---
🟢 * Add - schema.org structured data on game, club, stadium, player, staff and referee pages, joined to the Yoast SEO or Rank Math graph (off by default).
🟢 * Add - Reporters in one place (Match Editors, Competition Supervisors, Club Captains), each rule limited to the game sections you pick.
🔒 * Security - Reporters can change only the sections their rule allows, and draft, private or password-protected games, clubs and players stay out of live updates, the calendar and the APIs.
--- Everything else ---
🔵 * Update - PRO no longer switches off the free plugin, so it keeps getting translation updates from WordPress.org.
🔵 * Update - Club, player, stadium and referee pages open on the season they last played in.
🔵 * Update - Standings can follow the current season, so a league page doesn't need editing every year.
🟠* Fix - Front-end game editor and App API: a save no longer wipes events added by someone else or turns a result back into a fixture.
🟠* Fix - Live games: extra time works on manual and API live games, and shootout kicks no longer count as goals.
🟠* Fix - Card suspensions last the "Games to suspend" set in each rule.
🟠* Fix - Standings: initial points work in Home, Away and matchweek views, and cloned tables keep their points.
🟠* Fix - Squads: changes on the active season's tab update the Active Squad and are no longer lost.
🟠* Fix - Player minutes update on the first save after a Full Time change.
🟠* Fix - API Import: names with an apostrophe and hand-picked formation shirts are kept on re-import.
🟠* Fix - Various minor fixes and improvements.
