• English Chess Federations Privacy Policy

It has shortcodes that can be used to include a list of upcoming matches ‘Fixtures’, a list of played matches ‘Results’, and also display ‘Tables’ from the organisation.

ShortCodes

There are 3 shortcodes that can be used once the Plugin is installed and configured:

[echd_fixtures event_name="Event Name"]
[echd_results event_name="Event Name"]
[echd_table event_name="Event Name"]

The event_name attribute in the shortcodes is the name of the event, and must match exactly, see the screenshot 3 below.
In the echd_table this attribute is mandatory, for the others it is optional.

Limitations / Improvements

[echd_table] shortcode does not currently work for cups.
