SAMS Integration
v1.3.0 · by renao
Inofficial plugin to display data from the official result service SAMS by the german volleyball confederation DVV (Deutscher Volleyballverband).
About this plugin
⚠️ This plugin is deprecated and will be retired in mid-2027. Please migrate to its successor: Matchball – Standings & Tables for SAMS – actively maintained, with a 5-minute sync and fallback cache.
Never update rankings or fixtures lists by hand again!
The SAMS Integration will integrate the actual ranking or fixtures into your WordPress website.
To use this plugin you need to get an API key. Usually you can get this easily from your regional
confederation. I got mine from the WVV (Westdeutscher Volleyballverband).
Customization
Since version 1.2.0 you are able to override the default representation of the ranking and the fixtures view.
Just add a new template file to the folder of your currently used theme:
- Ranking:
sams-integration/ranking-template.php - Fixtures:
sams-integration/fixtures-template.php
You can find the default implementation in the sams-integration/build/php/templates/ folder to get a starting point how things are working.
Perhaps some additional customizations will be added in the future (e.g. the format of the fixtures venues).
