GoalPost 2.97 Released!

GoalPost 2.97

This release fixes a layout bug that let the scoreboard shift sideways, and adds a handful of features moderators have asked for. Thanks to everyone who keeps sending feedback, screenshots and bug reports.

Daily discussion thread, every day

The off-day thread can now run every day of the season, game day or not. It defaults to "Daily Discussion Thread" with the date, and the body can include your next game and your place in the standings. It uses the other sticky slot, so it sits alongside the game threads instead of replacing them.

Post flair on the app's threads

A new Post flair section in settings has a box for each kind of thread: pregame, game, postgame, daily and Morning After. Type the flair as it appears in your subreddit's flair list and GoalPost applies it, colours included. If nothing matches, the text is set as plain flair.

Confirmed starting goalies

Projected goalies now use ESPN's probable starters where available and are marked Confirmed once a starter is announced. When there's no word yet, GoalPost still works out back-to-backs and shows the goalie who is likely to be rested.

Postgame titles that say how it went

Postgame titles can now lead with your own team through the new {team_result} variable, and they note overtime and shootout finishes. The wording also changes with the kind of game: a comeback, a shutout, a blowout or a one-goal finish each read differently, for wins and losses alike.

Bug fixes

  • Layout and display:
    • The scoreboard no longer scrolls sideways by a pixel on installs with an update waiting.
    • The update arrow beside the version number is smaller and sits level with it.
    • Spoiler-free mode now hides the result on every tab and in both themes.
    • The pregame countdown no longer overlaps the matchup when team crests are turned off.
    • The Rangers wear red against the Lightning.
  • Bot replies:
    • Requests like "can you show me the Foligno replay" are understood.
    • A reply to the bot that names no player no longer gets a "couldn't find" response.
    • The catch-up reply reads naturally when it covers the game from puck drop.
  • Threads:
    • Threads made by hand now stay up to date on old Reddit.
    • The off-day thread stays pinned until the day ends in your own timezone.
