FAQ
-
Do I need SPOSCOR Core?
-
Yes. SPOSCOR Baseball is a sport extension that requires the free SPOSCOR Core plugin. Core handles the shared functionality (shortcodes, design themes) while SPOSCOR Baseball adds baseball-specific features.
-
Can I use 7-inning (youth) baseball?
-
Yes. Each game has an adjustable inning count using the +/- buttons in the admin. You can use any inning length from 1 to 15 innings, with extra innings supported.
-
Does it support pitching stats?
-
Yes. Each game has fields for starting pitcher, relief pitchers, ERA, and pitch counts. Batter records (hits, RBI, etc.) are also supported.
-
Does it support multiple languages?
-
Yes, SPOSCOR Baseball is fully translatable. Translations are handled through translate.wordpress.org once the plugin is published.
-
Is it compatible with my theme?
-
Yes. Styles are scoped to SPOSCOR elements so they do not conflict with your theme, and the design adapts to light and dark themes automatically.
