To maximize the variety of match combinations, the matches are typically played in a single set. The **Rotation Tournaments** have a strong social aspect because its goal is to keep players in the tournament until the very end. The situation where weaker players would leave the tournament due to elimination rounds is eliminated. It allows grouping players into a special category with special conditions. This special setting can be utilized, for example, in mixed tournaments. The participants of a tournament change partners several times during the tournament by a random selection and play against different players. The ratio of games won to games lost is calculated for each participant. The winner of the tournament is the player with this highest ratio. While a Singles Rotation Tournament can be organized without the aid of technology, in the case of a Doubles Rotation Tournament, this is not possible. **This plugin is the server-side for the “Rotation Tournaments” Android app.** To get the full experience of managing tournaments on the go, download our mobile app, now available on Google Play! ### Features **General Features:** * Seamless scheduling of matches. * Real-time score tracking. * Customizable settings for each tournament. * User-friendly interface for administrators and participants. * Comprehensive overview of player quality. * No downtime during the tournament. * Integration with website user accounts. * Suitable for various sports: tennis, table tennis, squash, padel, badminton, beach volleyball, and more. **Singles Rotation Tournament:** * Alternative form of a Singles Tournament where players face each other without elimination rounds. * Depending on the time options, everyone plays against everyone. **Doubles Rotation Tournament:** * Alternative form of a Doubles Tournament where players enter each match with a different partner and in different positions (alternating left and right sides). * Rotation of teammates, ensuring variety in partnerships. * Individuals can enter the tournament without a permanent teammate. * Suitable for odd numbers of players and minimum lineups of 4 players. * Define special groups of players with unique conditions. * No eliminations, ensuring all players stay in the game. * Shorter matches for more participation. * Tournament can be interrupted or extended without disruption. * Individual players can join or leave the tournament at any time. * Ranking based on the ratio of games won to games lost. * Announcement of the Best Player and Most Ideal Pair at the end of the tournament. **YouTube quick intro:** * Video for a quick introduction to the Rotation Tournament: #### More information Visit [test page](https://doroto.ltcchrast.cz/) for more information, try to create your own tournament and take a look at [Rules of the Doubles Rotation Tournament](https://doroto.ltcchrast.cz/rules-of-the-doubles-rotation-tournament/). ## Screenshot [⌊Matches drawn.

New installs create the main page from the blocks. The shortcodes [doroto_tournament] and [doroto_tournament_list] show the blocks in the classic editor; the 1.x shortcodes keep working * Add – the tournament block: Share dialog with a QR code, “Open in the app” line, full-screen presentation that rotates the sections, map of the tournament place in the settings, and guided tours of the page and of four example tournaments * Add – the tournament block takes its colours from the theme (button and palette colours); the block’s Styles panel can change the accent, the tab bar and table headers, their text and the colour of the special group * Add – the serving player is marked on the match cards; the special group is highlighted in matches, results, players, statistics and winners; the tournament details ( invitation text) can be shown at any time * Improvement – new admin page with Overview, Settings and Help instead of nine settings tabs; every setting is checked on the server and errors are shown next to the field * Improvement – every change of a tournament (web forms, blocks and the Android app) goes through one shared layer with the same permissions, locking and change detection * Improvement – styles, scripts and no-cache headers are sent only on pages that show the plugin; the unused tipTip library was removed and the admin no longer calls ip-api.com * Improvement – REST requests from the website use the WordPress login (cookie and nonce) when no app token is sent * Fix – tournament settings keep the ranges of 1.x and of the app (a larger value made the app’s dropdowns fail) * Fix – the plugin restores read permissions of its files after an FTP upload ( the web server answered 403 and the admin page stayed empty); the admin page shows a notice when its script cannot be loaded #### 1.6.2 – 2026/10/04 * Improvement – the draw chooses the opposing team (and the teammate) by previous meetings too: players meet more different opponents and the same players meet less often (with 14 players on 2 courts, pairs that met 3 or more times dropped from about 5 to 1 per evening) * Improvement – among players with the same number of new teammates left, the one who played fewer games is drawn first; sides (left/right) alternate for both players of a team * Add – REST route skip-matches: the organizer skips several ongoing matches at once and new matches are drawn from all free players * Add – organizers see an “Edit result” button next to every played match; it selects the match and its result in the change form (the form above the table was easy to miss) * Fix – the change form fits on a phone screen (the result and the button were off screen) #### 1.6.1 – 2026/10/02 * Fix – removing a payment no longer turns the payment list into a JSON object ( the Android app could crash on the statistics page) * Fix – a deleted account leaves its open tournaments: removed when it has not played yet, otherwise suspended; it also leaves the organizers, special group and payments (it was drawn into matches as “Unknown player”) * Fix – saving the tournament settings rejects an unknown tournament type * Add – the tournament page has an “Open in the app” link: Android opens the tournament in the app, or Google Play when it is missing * Add – app tournament links on the central site (?tournament_id=5&doroto_site=) are forwarded to the club’s tournament page when the app is not installed (sites from the site directory; other sites get a page with a link) #### 1.6.0 – 2026/10/02 * Security – front-end forms check tournament admin rights, not only the nonce ( any logged-in user could change players, payments or delete a tournament) * Security – admin actions sent as links are protected by a nonce (CSRF) * Security – guided tour actions need a nonce; regenerating the example tournaments is throttled * Security – final doubles and registration toggle check tournament admin rights * Security – registration from the app (incl. a new Google account) respects “Anyone can register” * Security – an account created by an organizer no longer returns a login session of the new player to the organizer * Security – with registration disabled only tournament organizers can create player accounts from the app (before, any signed-in player could) * Fix – results entered on the web no longer store last_update = 0, so the Android app refreshes again * Fix – every write to a tournament updates last_update * Fix – tournament lock: results entered at the same time on several courts are no longer lost * Fix – every change of a running tournament (correcting a result, suspending or removing a player, settings, payments, special group, web forms) runs under the tournament lock; correcting a result while another court saved its result could stall the whole tournament * Fix – several devices signing in or refreshing their session at the same moment no longer sign each other out * Fix – database upgrade adds new columns also on already installed sites * Fix – Authorization header is read also on FPM/CGI hosts * Fix – REST responses are never served from page caches or CDNs * Change – invitation link only joins the tournament (a second click no longer unregisters the player), redirects to the login page and back, and then to the tournament page * Change – the app can be signed in on several devices at once (up to 10 per user) * Change – the default name of a new tournament uses the site time zone, not UTC * Change – tournament links to the home page (“?tournament_id=5”) and the old app QR codes (“/tournament?id=5”) open the tournament page * Add – REST endpoint create-player: the organizer creates a player and adds them to the tournament in one step; the player gets an e-mail to set the password * Add – optional mode join/leave for the app join endpoint * Add – the tournament page shows a short link to the Android app (can be turned off in Settings -> Mobile app) * Change – the review request is shown only to administrators, 14 days after activation once the site has its own tournament, and comes back 7 days after “Remind me” until the plugin is rated #### 1.5.8 – 2026/06/12 * Fix – fixed some errors found in Plugin Check ####
