For me, I added them under the player metrics – you can create your own Variable name :

Yes, I understand that, but what is the value of the variable for age?
variable for Matches played is “eventsplayed”
and
variable for age is what? “age” does not work

yes, I thought the value would be displayed automatically. by the player’s date of birth.
I can do it manually
@maarty
Oh! You mean you want a generated value for the age based on a birth year metric ?
I’ll wait for @roch or @savvas to comment if it is configurable within the SportsPress GUI.
Otherwise, you can write a php function in your template.

Yes, that’s exactly what I want. we’ll see.
thanks for the help 🙂
Hi!
That’s a great idea, but we don’t have this at the moment. This would require some PHp code indeed.
Thanks!
Hi!
Just a quick update on this one. I’ve been playing around with it, and the easiest approach I could find was to create a player metric and populate it with the player’s birthdate.
Then you can use PHP or even JS code to convert that one to age.
Thanks!

Hi there to all,
Almost 2 years ago I created a branch to achieve exactly that!
https://github.com/ThemeBoy/SportsPress/tree/feature-dob-age-player-lists
Can you try to CAREFULLY merge the changes and see if it is what you want?
Thanks,
Savvas

Thanks for helping @savvasha
I’m sorry, but I’m a beginner
I downloaded the plugin
Installed plugin
and now I did: Sport Press | Configure | Player Metrics | Add New
What should I write in the Variable field? https://ibb.co/1X8yGG9

Hi @savvasha
Oh, I should have seen this one before diving to much into the code.
As far as I can see, only this file is changed:
https://github.com/ThemeBoy/SportsPress/commit/8d037f8a87b74f4cdadfd8cc86abb305c03adb52
Is that right?
Thanks!

Take care though, the commits and changes were made to a very very old version of SportsPress!
Hey @maarty
I have just tested Savvas’ code and it works like magic.
If you want I can give you instructions on how to implement it in the current SP version.
Thanks!
