Syncer UI refresh for German competition software

The Syncer UI for German competition management software has been refreshed. You can no longer upload a database file to import later—that flow was confusing and has been removed.

The same interface refresh will reach Excel import and Skate Results JSON import soon. The update is mostly visual; some rows may appear as changed even when nothing actually changed—approve carefully if unsure. You can now approve individual competitions one at a time. Live syncing still works only in Chromium-based browsers, as before. If you notice problems or odd behaviour, please reach out.

For more information, see Live syncing.

Dark mode for the website

The website now supports dark and light themes. By default, appearance follows your system settings. You can also choose to always use light mode or dark mode from the dropdown in the navigation bar.

Condition Tree Date and Time Support

Condition trees now support special handling for dates and times in ISO8601 format. When comparing dates and times, the condition tree engine automatically handles timezone conversions and missing time components (e.g., assuming midnight for dates).

For more information, see the Condition Tree documentation.

Livestream Inserts improvements

The Livestream Inserts feature has been significantly enhanced. It's now possible to create multiple overlay configurations (a.k.a. studio) for each event. Further, studios are stored on the server and can be worked on collaboratively by multiple users.

Existing configurations can be migrated when creating a new studio for an event.

Meeting Point: Relays

The meeting point now also supports relays. Previously, you could only check the attendance of individual skaters. Now, relays are also listed and you can tick the individual team members as well as the team itself. This is especially useful when four skaters were registered, but only three are allowed to race.

Import from wskate.net

Skate Results can now import data from the wskate.net competition software. Thanks to the work from the wskate.net developer, all results, starting lists etc. can be imported into Skate Results. The two systems are automatically synchronized every minute. That way, Skate Results can now host results of all major World Skate events like european or world championships.

To import from wskate.net, go to "Import" in the main menu, create a new import configuration and select "wskate.net". Fill in the board from the the URL of the wskate.net event and everything else will happen automatically.

Import from JSON

You can now import results, starting lists etc from a JSON file. This includes qualifications, multiple rounds, and multiple finals. The JSON file must be structured according to this JSON schema.

With this feature, every competition software can now integrate with Skate Results. The software only needs to export the results in the correct JSON format, and Skate Results will handle the rest.

Series Permissions

You can now add and remove organizers to your series. There is no need to reach out to Skate Results support anymore. You can manage the permissions of your series by going to the general settings of your series and clicking on the "Permissions" tab.

Event Permissions

You can now add and remove organizers to your event. There is no need to reach out to Skate Results support anymore. You can manage the permissions of your event by going to the general settings of your event and clicking on the "Permissions" tab.

Event Banners

You can now add a banner to your event page. This will be displayed at the top of the event page. You can use the banner to show your event's logo, a sponsor's logo, or any other image you like.

To add a banner to your event, upload an image in the "Files" section in the admin area. Then, navigate to General -> Design and select the uploaded file. Images are automatically resized and cropped to 1200x200 pixels.
