A sports WordPress block theme with MeinTurnierplan.de integration for tournament and match websites.

== Description ==

Matchday is a full site editing (FSE) block theme built for sports clubs, leagues and tournament organisers, with built‑in integration for MeinTurnierplan.de. It ships with a library of block patterns — headers, footers, hero sections, call‑to‑action blocks, service and post cards, quotes and alerts — so you can assemble match schedules, news and landing pages directly in the Site Editor.

= Features =

* Full site editing (FSE) with theme.json v3, HTML templates, and template parts.
* Block patterns for home, blog, cards, calls to action, quotes and alerts.
* Custom block styles and wide/full‑width layout support.
* Featured image support and editor styles that match the front end.
* A theme icon collection for the core Icon block.
* Translation ready

= Companion plugin =

For the full experience, you may install the recommended companion plugins when prompted after activation. All of them are optional, and all are available from the WordPress.org plugin repository:

* Matchday Blocks — the core blocks used by the theme's patterns.
* Contact Form 7 — contact and registration forms.
* Dynamic Year Block — automatic copyright year in the footer.
* Splide Carousel Block — sliders and carousels.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Which plugins do I need? =

None are required — the theme works on its own. After activation you will be prompted to install a few recommended, optional plugins (Matchday Blocks, Contact Form 7, Dynamic Year Block and Splide Carousel Block) that unlock additional patterns and functionality. Matchday Blocks powers the theme's custom block patterns, so it is the one we suggest most. All of these plugins come from the WordPress.org plugin repository.

= Do I need an account on MeinTurnierplan.de? =

The theme is designed to work alongside MeinTurnierplan.de tournament data. You can use the theme without it, but the integration features are intended for sites connected to a MeinTurnierplan.de tournament.

= How do I edit the design? =

Matchday is a block theme, so everything is edited in Appearance → Editor (the Site Editor). You can change colors, typography, templates and template parts there without writing any code.

= How do I change colors and fonts? =

Open the Site Editor and go to Styles. The theme provides its own color palette and uses the bundled Inter font. You can adjust both globally or per block.

= Do I still need The Icon Block plugin? =

No. Since 1.1.0 the patterns use the core Icon block, and the theme registers its own "Matchday" icon collection (star, phone, clipboard, trophy, calendar date range, arrow right) that appears in the Icon block's picker. Icons you inserted earlier with The Icon Block keep working as long as you keep that plugin; to move them over, replace each one with a core Icon block.

== Changelog ==

= 1.1.0 =
* Added a "Matchday" icon collection for the core Icon block, registered through the WordPress 7.1 Icon API.
* Patterns now use the core Icon block instead of The Icon Block plugin, which is no longer recommended.
* Removed the editor script that added theme icons to The Icon Block.
* Requires WordPress 7.1 or later; tested up to WordPress 7.1.

= 1.0.2 =
* Added an About page template and new section patterns (Mission, Our Values, Overview, Reviews, Services, centered-heading CTA).
* Added Latest Matches and Upcoming Matches patterns with MeinTurnierplan.de match cards.
* Added a 3-column blog section and a static hero variant.
* Refined the header and footer patterns.
* Updated the translation template and refreshed the theme screenshot.

= 1.0.1 =
* Initial release.

== Upgrade Notice ==

= 1.1.0 =
Now requires WordPress 7.1. The Icon Block plugin is no longer needed: patterns use the core Icon block with the theme's own icon collection. Icons you already inserted with The Icon Block keep working while that plugin stays installed.

= 1.0.2 =
Adds an About page template plus new block patterns, including Latest and Upcoming Matches sections with MeinTurnierplan.de match cards, and refined header/footer patterns.

= 1.0.1 =
First public release of Matchday.
