InStat: Team comparison integration

Here are more details about the latest features:

If you’ve enjoyed integrating Dugout videos into your content, you’re going to love YouTube sports.

YouTube sports lets you search and add any video in YouTube’s sports category to your post without leaving your editing screen. It could be football, basketball, e-games, or any sports-related video.

We’ve added a YouTube sports block under the Content category for quick access and integration into your Article / Video / Gallery.

You can add YouTube sports videos as supporting content or as main media* of your post.

*In addition to adding YouTube sports videos as supporting content, soon you will be able to add them as main media from the Media tab of your content properties, similarly to the way Dugout videos are added. See Dugout.

Adding YouTube sports video as supporting content

To add a YouTube sports video as supporting content, you need to add a YouTube sports block to the body of your post:

Open an Article, Video, or Gallery.
Go to the body and select + icon to add a video block.
From the menu choose Content -->YouTube Sports.

4. When the block opens, type in a football team you want to find videos for.

Note that you can search for any type of video, not just football.

5. A list of videos related to your query will appear. To add the video you want, hover over it and select the + that will appear.

Note that you can preview your video before saving it, and copy the embed code to use it somewhere else.

InStat: Team comparison is an important addition to the Sportal365 CMS, because it gives you access to unprecedented detailed team sports statistics. InStat: Team comparison compares and evaluates the performance of two teams based on more than 200 stats.

The InStat: Team comparison integration resembles the Team comparison widget, but while the latter is configured by us to display the comparison of specific team data inside your posts–Matches played, Wins, Draws, Defeats, Goals scored, Goals conceded–, you will have to configure InStat: Team comparison and decide which of the 200+ team stats to compare and display inside your posts.

Adding InStat: Team comparison block to a post

To add an InStat: Team comparison block to a post:

Open an Article, Video, or Gallery.
Go to the body and select + icon to add a video block.
From the menu choose Content --> InStat: Team comparison.

4. Select a Tournament-->Season-->Team for each team you want to compare.
