Scores Dynamic Playlist
The dynamic playlist module for sports allows you to define the filtering criteria that automatically selects relevant scores available in the system.
You can choose to filter on:
league
team(s)
game state
and more…
You choose your filter criteria and review the results based on the currently available scores. Then you save the selections you made using a relevant name so you’ll easily know what the list was designed for.
Where is it?
The Dynamic Playlist module is found as an item of the Sports content module.
