SportsPost – Enriched Sports Posts free WordPress plugin

Enhance your sports posts with rich, detailed metadata about games, teams, and players, and with live game photos. SportsPost 2.0 allows WordPress editors to search for player names of athletes in major North American sports leagues, and drop their names directly into their post. These names can then hyperlink to externally hosted Player Profile pages, with expanded news, statistics, and photos of those players. Bloggers can also optionally register at http://SportsForecaster.com/affiliates to generate advertising revenue from their links. SportsPost 2.0 also allows editors to search or browse the over 3 million sports photos from Icon Sportswire — a leading sports photo wire service. Selected photos can be inserted directly into any post — without leaving WordPress. Photos can also be imported into WordPress’s Media Library. Photos are for editorial usage only, and editors must register at IconSportswire.com for an account and login credentials. Photos can licensed using prepaid Credits (no long-term contract necessary), or can be downloaded as part of a monthly subscription package. SportsPost 2.0 also includes “preview functionality” that allows WordPress administrators to add Sports Widgets from XML Team onto designated locations of any page. Our forthcoming 3.0 release will make it easy to select widgets and drop them in place. Visit the “Support” tab and drop us a message if you’d like more details. Future versions will allow editors to: Select Sports Widgets that will automatically update your website with current sports coverage. Identify posts as being Game Previews or Game Recaps for particular sporting events, and then automatically include supplemental game information.
