Setting everything up

Are you viewing WEEK 2 or WEEK 1 on the PICKS page? The Week START date is used to set that week as the Default (focused) week meaning that when you first access any pickem pages, it will be focused for that specific week.

Can you let me login with your Admin Account. I can take a quick look and tell you if anything is not set up correctly.

 

If you have your weeks setup properly, the CURRENT week will be the default week.

For NFL, the Start Date for the week should be Tuesday (which is the official start date for an NFL week.). The Stop Date should be kick off for Monday Night Football game. Game Lock dates should be the kickoff date/time for each game.

As you can see, the START Dates for each week are AFTER the previous weeks STOP Date (For NFL, the best is either Tuesday or Wednesday).


Each WEEK has its own PAGE on the Manage your Picks area and the Standings Pages. The header tells you what week is currently being displayed. Use the Switch Week to change to a different week that isn't the "Current" week.

 

You can create me a dummy account if you want, but using yours allows me to see what you are seeing on the frontend. Im watching Football with my family right now, so it will be easier if I can just user your account for a few minutes when I can slip away while they don't get MAD. I am not even supposed to be online right now.

 

That is the STANDINGS page. You make your picks on the Manage Your Picks page.

 

You need to upload all the Pickem images to your STYLE.

The Pickem images are uploaded into the Core XF Default style: /styles/default/nflj/pickem/... (various images and folders)
You need to upload the /nflj/pickem/... into your custom style /styles/apex-light/nflj/pickem/...

 

If you don't know how to do that, start a convo with me, give me FTP credentials and I can take care of it for you.

 

No, I must have missed that... where? Its been a busy day with the family!
