ESPN Live scores module (CMPS 2.0 RC2)

[glorify]

*Edit*

ESPN No longer supports

[brady]

I like the mod and would like to have something like that on my site. Can it be modified so that it shows college football scores?

[Our Sponsors]

[glorify]

I don't know what other ESPN feeds they have for this. :confused:

[Smirnoff1824]

very nice! Would love to have NASCAR one for my site!

[Our Sponsors]

[brady]

Can you point me to where you found the feeds for your module. I can't find any for college sports.

[glorify]

I acutally did a search for 'ESPN Scorepost' to see if there were more feeds. Only saw 2 of them and no college sports at all. Sorry guys :(

[rrokdoka]

How do you put this on lol <--- newbie

You can also add NHL, but that's all I've seen so far.

I take that back. by adding NCF it adds a new line to the flash that says:

College: FB

but it doesn't actually display any college schedules/scores. I wonder if that data is in a different datafile? All that is in the current datafile is NFL and NHL so I'm not sure where it gets the baseball schedules/scores from.

AdminCP>vBa CMPS>Download/Upload Module

Yeah--the default has NHL as well. It'd be nice to crack ESPN's code for this :)

[Richard]

here is all I've found so far, they show up, but don't really work.

http://espn.go.com/scorepost/flash/scorepost_flash-vert.swf?sport=ALL&amp;item2=MLB&amp;item3=NFL&amp;item4=NBA&amp;item5=NHL&amp;item6=NCF&amp;item7=NCB&amp;i tem8=NCW&amp;totalItems=8&amp;delay=5&amp;datafile=http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/scorepost.data

[rrokdoka]

how do i change the background color of the live scores module, because it did not default. the website is www.rrokdoka.org... because the background color is not the same as the rest of the web page... you cannot see the options all, nfl, mlb, underneath. if anyone can help please respond.

[glorify]

You must be using Firefox. It does the same on my site, but looks fine with IE.

Best way to fix it is to give it an all black background.

In template adv_portal_scoresespn find:
<tr>

<td bgcolor="#FFFFFF">

Replace with:
<tr>

<td bgcolor="#000000">

[rrokdoka]

its the same thing lol and im using firefox lol

[glorify]

My bad--this will work prefect. I will also fix the original first post with this:

In adv_portal_scoresespn, replace ALL with this:
<tr>

<td bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><font class="boxcontent"><center><script language=javascript>

If i could find adv_portal_scoresespn i would. lol You know where it is??

[glorify]

OK

Got to AdminCP>Styles and Templates>Search in templates...Type in adv_portal_scoresespn in the top box. Then hit 'Find'

Double click on it when it brings it up and pate the new code over the old code and hit 'save'

:)

[rrokdoka]

i freakin love you lol

[rrokdoka]

hmmm... it gives me a blank box, with nothing in it... weird

[glorify]

did you paste the whole code?

[rrokdoka]

yeah i did.... its weird... i replaced the whole thing with this one. I dunno : /

[glorify]

I went to your site--it looks ok--oops, maybe not. Have you been to mine in firefox?

[rrokdoka]

yeah i have and yours loooks fine and the only reason my sites looks good sorta lol is because i replaced it with the old module :/

[glorify]

grrrr--Then the only way is to uninstall the first and reinstall the new from the first post. Know how?

[Caveman2k2]

Very nice. Installed perfectly. Thanks for sharing this!

[Morrow]

Same here, no problems found! Thanks!

[steelersfan]

I'm not getting the scores to update and I'm only getting one score, anybody know why? I used the new code a few posts up.

[scr2000ge]

where can i get baseball scores for this? or all scores for all sports for that matter?

[TheNFLForums]

Very nice...except I'm having issues with it...It could be just that it is set up for v3.5 or something, (which is being installed next week - right now I was just playing with the set up...)

However, for whatever reason this and the sports news modules do not show up on the index page. They do, however, show up if I make a page for the modules. It could just be a firefox thing, I suppose, as I haven't even tried it on IE yet (ugh, do I have to?) but here are the links:

http://www.afcwestforums.com
http://www.afcwestforums.com/index.php?page=lscore

Any clues as to why that is? Thanks.

[TheNFLForums]

Okay I fixed that, then we uninstalled the module (and everything else) to upgrade to VB3.5. Now, when I install this module, it comes up on FF, with a bunch of code before and after the scoreboard. It does not show up on IE at all.

Any clues? If you want to email me with assistance, try me at bluedamsel@gmail.com :) thanks

Thanks for the help in advance! :)

[CrossBones]

Does anybody have any suggestion on what I may be doing wrong trying to get this module to display on the front page of vBadvanced?

Check in your admin CP make sure the module is active

Make sure it is on the style your using

Check your Admin CP > CMPS > Pages and make sure that the mod is turned on for the page there.

[glorify]

Looks like I started a mess instead of a hack. I have found that IE has problems with this ESPN's script as some of you have seen. Check this:

Scorepost on ESPN's site (http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/scorepost?sport=all)

Works fine in Firefox, trouble with IE. Don't know if it's just a missing IE plugin on client PC's or not.

If you are having other problems, try to uninstall it and reinstall it with the current one I use on my site. Slight changes to the new exported one. You may want to take a peek at my site (http://glorifythepast.com) FIRST to see if the live scores look fine for you.

To uninstall old one:

AdminCP=>Search in Templates=>(for) adv_portal_scoresespn
When it finds it, highlight it and click 'Revert'

Then,
AdminCP=>vBa CMPS=>Edit Modules=>Live Scores
Edit and delete it.

Then reinstall with this new module.

On firefox and it doesn't show in IE. I'm running 3.5 and did the revert fix with no luck.

Any ideas?

[GT1]

I need to find an NBA scorepost. Any ideas?!?!?

[GT1]

oops/

[ga2000gt]

Has anyone figured out how to get other sports scores yet? Like for College FB, Baseball, Basketball?

[ChuckH]

When I click on the ESPN link it shows college FB, BB and WBB. Not sure how to change it to that in the module though.

[rollinjunk]
