The page nobody can edit
Whoever built the website left the club in 2019. Changing anything on it means finding them, or finding the login, and the table is not worth either.
Club website widgets
Clayside is competition and membership software for racket sports clubs. A widget is a piece of it that lives on your own website: this season's table, the club ladder, the latest results, or a card that tells a visitor how to join.

The problem
Your league moved on two seasons ago. The website did not, and everybody at the club has learnt not to look at it.
Whoever built the website left the club in 2019. Changing anything on it means finding them, or finding the login, and the table is not worth either.
You sort the league out on Sunday night, then type the same eight names into the website. By Wednesday somebody has played and the two disagree.
Somebody finds the club online, reads that there is a box league, and can see no way to put their name down. So they do not.
The widgets
These are not pictures of widgets. Each one below is being loaded from the tennis demo club while you read this page, from the same address a club pastes into its own site.
That club plays a real season and starts again every hour, so what you are looking at is whatever it has done this hour.
Installing it
Open Website in your club's Clayside, choose the widget, set your colour, and copy what it writes for you.

<p><a href="https://clayside.app/">Powered by Clayside</a></p>
The address is your club's. The colour, the title and the height are what you chose on the Website screen, so the frame fits the number of rows you asked for. Nothing is stored at our end: those two lines on your page are the whole record of it.
The second line is a plain link back to us, sitting in your page rather than inside the frame. It is the only thing on the page that is ours, and it is all we ask for.
Website builders
Every one of these has a block for pasted HTML. Find it, paste, save the page, and you are finished with the website.
Questions
Within a minute. The widget is worked out fresh from your league and held for sixty seconds at most, so a score approved on Clayside at half past eight is on your club website by twenty-nine minutes to nine.
Nobody edits the website for it, and there is nothing to press. The page is the same two lines it was in September.
No. A widget shows what your league page already shows a stranger: names, positions and scores, and nothing else. There is no email address, no phone number and no birthday anywhere near it.
A club that has shut its competitions to members only gets a card on its website saying so, rather than a table. One switch covers both.
No, and it sets nothing else either. There is no tracker in it, no third-party font and no script of any kind: a widget is a page of text and a stylesheet, and that is the whole of it.
What happens is that a visitor to your website fetches one small page from us. Our privacy policy says so in a line of its own.
It is as wide as you let it be, and it stays inside whatever column your website gives it. On a narrow screen the table drops played, won and lost, and keeps position, name and points, because that is what somebody standing in the car park is looking for.
You choose light or dark, or let it follow whatever the reader's phone is set to.
Set the accent to your club's colour and it runs through the heading, the tabs and the buttons. Turn the title bar off if your website already has a heading above it, and turn the sponsor line off if you would rather it were not there.
The type is ours by default, so it reads like the app your members already use. Switch it to your website's own type and the widget disappears into the page.
All of them, the free plan and the fourteen-day trial included. It costs nothing and it is not counted, capped or held back for a bigger plan.
The one thing a widget can only show is something your plan runs: a club with no ladder has no ladder widget to paste.
Some of the cheaper website plans do, and there is no way round it from our end. Try the widget's address on its own first, because several builders take an address where they will not take pasted HTML.
If neither works, put a plain link to your club's Clayside address on the page. It is one tap for a member and it never goes out of date.
Your club link, which is one address for the whole club, all year. It signs a member in and it puts a stranger in front of you to approve, and it is short enough to read down the phone or print under a QR code on the noticeboard.
The widget reads it from your league every time it draws, so replacing the link changes what the button on your website opens within the minute, with nobody editing the website.
Your website
Widgets are free on every plan, the free plan and the fourteen-day trial included. Build one in the demo club first: the screen is the same one your club gets.
The demo hands you the owner's view, so you can build a widget and copy it without an account. It resets every hour.
