Volleyball Livescore Widget

The Livescore widget lists volleyball matches for a given date with their set-by-set scores, and keeps updating while matches are in progress.

Preconditions

• Your project must have the Volleyball feature enabled. Widget categories are switched on per project, so if Volleyball widgets does not appear in the block picker, ask your administrator to enable it.
• You need permission to create or edit articles.
• There must be matches scheduled on the date you choose.

Adding the Volleyball Livescore Widget to a post

To set up the widget:

1. Open an article for editing, or create a new one.
2. Below the blocks in the article body is a row of quick-add buttons: the content blocks first, then one icon for each sport enabled on your project, then +. Hover an icon to see its name — the Volleyball icon is hovered here.

   

3. Select the Volleyball icon, then choose Livescore from the widget list that opens.

   

4. Set the widget options. Select date, Competition filter, All competitions, Display odds and others control what it shows.

   

5. Check the options are the ones you want. Some fields depend on others, so a list can be empty until you set the field above it.

   

6. When done, select Save block.

   

7. Hover the saved block. Of the controls that appear (Copy embed code, Preview, Edit and Remove), select Preview to see the real widget.

Volleyball Livescore Widget options

• Select date — The date to show matches for. It is not marked as required, but the block will not save without it: Save block shows “No date selected” until you pick a day from the calendar.
• Competition filter — Narrows the widget to the leagues you pick (its placeholder reads “Select leagues you want to show”). If it offers no leagues on your project, leave it empty: the widget then shows every league.
• All competitions — Holds the current league selection. By default it contains a single All Leagues chip, so matches from every league are shown and the saved block reads “Competitions: All Competitions”.
• Display widget header — Shows the widget’s own heading above its content.
• Display odds — Shows betting odds alongside each match, where available. It is checked by default, and it is removed from the panel when you pick a past date.
• Select bookmaker — The bookmaker whose odds are shown when Display odds is on. Like Display odds, it is removed from the panel when you pick a past date.
• Default header option — Which grouping is shown first when the widget loads. Leave it empty to use your project’s global settings. The POPULAR option needs a competition list configured for your project; without one, the widget shows “Something went wrong!”.
• Refresh time — Controls how often the published widget refetches its data. Leave empty to use your project’s global refresh setting.

What the Volleyball Livescore Widget shows

Each match row shows:

• S1-S5 — set scores: points won by each team in each set played
• S — sets won: sets won by each team, which is the match result in volleyball

Preview of the Volleyball Livescore Widget

The widget lists matches for the selected date, with sets alongside each team.

Good to know

• The preview area is narrower than a published page, so the widget uses its compact layout there and may hide columns that the published version shows.
• The widget always renders whichever version of the sports widgets library your project is on. There is no version to set.
