Scorestream - Code Works on Squarespace 7.0, but not 7.1

Site URL: https://www.ecwolverines.com/home

The following code has been used for 6 years on the Squarespace 7.0 site. Recently this past month I have updated to Squarespace 7.1, and unfortunately the code no longer works. The code is exactly the same and just copy and past from the previous.

Below is the code (javascript) that is used by Scorestream. When pasted in Code Block and choosing Javascript using 7.1, the code still does not work.

Attached is a photo of what the widget is supposed to look like display wise.

<div class="scorestream-widget-container" data-ss_widget_type="horzScoreboard" data-user-widget-id="50413"></div><script async="async" type="text/javascript" src="https://scorestream.com/apiJsCdn/widgets/embed.js"></script>

The code you've quoted is HTML, not JavaScript. This is a common misconception because the HTML is being used to load a JavaScript file 🙂

Change the setting and ensure the view source option is disabled and you'll be able to check if the code works as expected.

I've tried that option as well and had the view source option disabled. I contacted Squarespace before leaving this post here.

The person replying said it specifically was javascript after I said it was originally HMTL source. They also mentioned that they said to contact ScoreStream about something called "oEmbed standard" which I am not sure what they are referring too.

So back to square one, where this code does not work either way Java or HTML in the code block.

Sadly they are wrong, but it's understandable because Squarespace don't provide assistance with HTML or JavaScript so the representative wouldn't necessarily understand the difference. Regardless, I recommend that you use this instead:
