Matchday Blocks

Matchday Blocks integrates with the MeinTurnierplan platform to let you embed live tournament data — match schedules, group standings and results — anywhere on your site using native Gutenberg blocks.

Features:

• Match Schedule block — list all matches grouped by round and date
• Standings block — show live group standings
• Latest Matches block — display the most recently played fixtures
• Upcoming Matches block — show the next scheduled fixtures
• Configurable cache to reduce external API requests
• Team logos downloaded and served locally (no third-party image requests from visitor browsers)

External Services

This plugin connects to MeinTurnierplan (https://www.meinturnierplan.de) to retrieve tournament data.

• Data sent: The Tournament ID you configured in the plugin settings.
• Data received: Match results, team names, group standings, final round fixtures and team logo URLs.
• When: Only on the server side — when the cache is empty or expired, or when you manually clear the cache. Visitor browsers are never used to contact MeinTurnierplan.
• Logo images: Team logos are downloaded to your WordPress uploads directory (/uploads/matchday-blocks/logos/) and served from your own server.
