Ok the new site is just about complete.
We have a load of new features and much improved user interface. Lets hope some more Add-ons come out of it
- Player Hall of fame
- Player former teams
- Player honours
Example player page
Let me know if you are getting any API errors, it should be working but not tested much...

Please register again, assuming you use the same username it will keep all your edits and history.
===========================
New feature TV listings for each event!
This could make a very cool Kodi Add-on to alert you that sport is on TV
Let me know if anyone wants that data exposed on the API?

Typical there's a 500 server error now!
But, thanks.... scratch that, it was only brief!
RE: TheSportsDB.com (Open Sports Metadata, Artwork and Scores) - n1md4 - 2017-01-29
Hmm "You have provided an invalid answer to the question." but I really haven't.
... and scratch that too; I'm not having a good day here!

Please fill out any data if you can
RE: TheSportsDB.com (Open Sports Metadata, Artwork and Scores) - docwra - 2017-03-13
Pretty much all 2017 events have been added for motorsports. Only Nascar, Moto2 and Moto3 is missing for now...
Any help adding them is appreciated.

I've updated the latest premiership teams and events. All new 2017-2018 seasons should now by added.
I've also added the biggest boxing event in a while: Floyd Mayweather vs Conor McGregor
http://www.thesportsdb.com/event/529104
It should scrape into Kodi as a TV show using the sports scraper

As an NFL and NBA fan and general stat nerd, this is very useful for me. Thank you!
RE: TheSportsDB.com (Open Sports Metadata, Artwork and Scores) - docwra - 2017-09-16
NFL results are currently broken but we are trying to fix it.
- Added Welsh Premier League
RE: TheSportsDB.com (Open Sports Metadata, Artwork and Scores) - docwra - 2017-09-18
New fixture icons
And NFL results are now automatic again for the new season.
RE: TheSportsDB.com (Open Sports Metadata, Artwork and Scores) - docwra - 2017-12-08
The front-page has had a major re-design...
Thanks to Ovokx for the original concept images
- New 'Born Today' list
- New Top Honored players
- New latest event Fanart list
- New latest awarded Honour's
- Redesigned Live events view
RE: TheSportsDB.com (Open Sports Metadata, Artwork and Scores) - docwra - 2018-02-06
- New activity page https://www.thesportsdb.com/feed
- HTTPS support
- CORS support for javascript dev's
- Fixed some larger artwork filesizes
- New API method for sports categories https://www.thesportsdb.com/api/v1/json/1/all_sports.php
- New API method to list all leagues: https://www.thesportsdb.com/api/v1/json/1/all_leagues.php
- There has also been an average of 1,000 edits a week recently, with loads of new artwork and data added in different sports.
Example of recent event thumbnail upload for superbowl
Ping @enen92 for info on the 2 new API methods. Could these be added to the sports module some time?
Many of these requests came from the media-portal developers who are making an awesome Plugin
RE: TheSportsDB.com (Open Sports Metadata, Artwork and Scores) - enen92 - 2018-03-12
Hey @docwra
I'm in the process of updating the addons for Leia so hopefully will add the missing methods to the API. I also want to look into making a python scrapper now that those are possible.
My addons that use thesportsdb are having issues with league tables because the request to `/lookuptable.php?l=leagueid` is supposed to return the table for the more recent season. Can you please update the hardcoded value to 1718 or, preferably, make it automatic (i.e. find out the highest value in the table)?
Cheers
RE: TheSportsDB.com (Open Sports Metadata, Artwork and Scores) - docwra - 2018-03-12
Sure done! Had to mess around a bit, as the seasons change after August, but think I got it.
You can always set the season on that method using the s=1718 parameter. But it should auto do it now as well if "s" isn't passed.
I've dedicated a week during Easter to work on the site full time and get lots more sports syncing automatically. Let me know if there are any feature requests for the API or site
EDIT: Updated the API page with a clearer layout and all the latest changes
