## Changelog

#### 0.5

 * You can now choose to display timestamps in the visitor’s own timezone.
 * It now registers as a “real” widget meaning you won’t need to add any PHP code
   to the template. The old code still works for backwards-compatibility and for
   templates without widget support.
 * Match links open in a new tab/window (target=”_blank”).
 * Added a per-match override setting for home/away match.
 * Modified the area the match link covers slightly to make it less ambiguous.

#### 0.4

 * Date and time format can now be changed in the settings.

#### 0.3

 * First public release.
 * Code clean-up.
 * Database-related match link fix.
 * Stylesheet overhaul.

#### 0.2

 * Code clean-up.
 * Added match link.

#### 0.1

 * Initial in-house release.
