I think it's to prevent harvesting data just by requesting ID numbers. But then we don't have an easy way to deal with name changes.

The Public API code was implemented a while back. Not sure anyone could answer that, unless it exists in the comments somewhere.

Is there any particular reason why other endpoints reference players by username, not by player_id?

Occasionally there's an issue when updating some records. It will likely work again later

@richorsk it probably was a temporary issue. It's working now

I got an error when I use my user (richorsk), but It works with other users (peonpalante, for example)

No, it's working. There could be an issue with specific members and if there is, trying later will likely work

I had assumed it wasn't code related, thanks Martin. 24 hours on and stil broken because it wasn't checked before someone put in the change. It is symptomatic of the attitude. Push the change through but don’t bother checking the impact.

Actually, now that I look more closely, the club has it's own CCS and that explicitly sets color for the text

@Tricky_Dicky it wasn't a code change. The admin that did it posted with dark mode on and didn't notice that it doesn't work in light mode
