How can I set up my betting community for the new season?

After a season or tournament is over, you can choose "Restart" in the administrator menu and choose a new current theme. When restarting, you can decide whether the registered players should be kept on or not. The scores and bets are deleted for good, so TAKE IT EASY! Wait a few days until all players have had a look at the final standings of the community.

You have to print out the old results if you want to consult them later on. You can also copy/paste them into an Excel file, for example, or save the actual HTML sites.

How can I add questions?

Administrator -> Questions -> Add question

I can't log in as administrator under "Place a Bet". What's going on?

The administrator must log in as a player to place bets. Here you can choose a name. The name "adminstrator" cannot be changed and does not appear in the bet and general overview.

Can I determine whether the result is counted after 90 or 120 minutes, or after the penalty shootout?

More on this subject.

I have only heard of kicktipp.de in the course of the season. How can I transfer my scores to this website?

More on this subject.

How can I formulate my own questions?

Further information on this subject.

I have created my own questions and determined their answers. When will the points be calculated?

After the answers have been determined, the administrator must go to "League Administration" -> "Season Planning" -> "Questions" -> "Enter Result" and set the answers to right and wrong.

How can I enter up a player's questions as administrator?

Administrator -> "Enter up bets" -> Player Name. Then select the matchday the questions belong to via the pull-down menu. You can see on which matchday the bet must be placed under "Questions".

I don't want to reward the goal difference, but only award points for tendency and correct result.

The points from the points rules are not added. You just have to enter the same value for the goal difference as for the tendency, and the goal difference will be ignored.

Where can I enter the results from finished games?

For standard themes, the results are entered by us shortly after the matches have ended. If you have created your own theme, you can enter the results via "League Administration" -> "Seasons" -> "Matches". Answers to individuall created questions can only be entered at "Answers".

I want to send an e-mail to all players, but not all players appear on the list. Why not?

Only the players appear on the list whose e-mail address has been activated. The players will be asked to do so when they next log in at the latest. As soon as the players have activated their e-mail address, they will appear on the e-mailing list.

How can I upload a text or a photo to the start page?

Administrator -> Standard texts -> Start page (pull-down menu): Here you can incorporate your own greeting. If you know HTML and want to render the text or incorporate images, you can activate the HTML mode and format your site via HTML commands. Important: Images can only be referenced and must first be deposited on their own server. You cannot upload them to kicktipp.de. You can find many good instructions for this at SelfHTML.
