    Hi,
    To start the sportpress on our new website (a great plug-in !!) I started importing players (via a csv).
    Later when I imported matches (via csv) system created all the players again.
    So what I understand is that you can not import matches with all the players if you have the players already in the system. Or is there a workaround?
    IF import/update possibilities would be much better this plug-in is unbeatable.
    But like with players you can not import nrs, link to picture,….
    Also with matches you can not import all info….it’s a pitty
    All import plugin is also no solution…..
    Is there a plugin that can handle this ?

    Hi brunoclaessens!

    I’m sorry for the delay on this one.

    If you still need help with this, please kindly upload your CSV file to pastebin or to your site and send us a link to it. It’s probably an issue with the CSV formatting.

    Thanks!

    Hi Roch,

    I don’t think it’s a problem with the csv because the matches and the players were nicely imported in the matches.
    The problem was that when i checked the playersdatabase that also players were imported while tey were already in.
    In summary
    1- i imported clubs
    2- imported players
    3- imported matches, with exact name clubs and exact name players and players were created again in players.
    Thanks for your attention.

    Hi there!

    Thanks for your reply.

    That definitely looks like an issue in your CSV 🙂

    The events importer looks for players with the same name as players in your import:
    https://github.com/ThemeBoy/SportsPress/blob/master/includes/admin/importers/class-sp-event-importer.php#L370

    So they are only created (line 394) if there are no posts (player profiles) with the same title (player name).

    Thanks!

    BTW: I could be wrong though, but it’s just more efficient if we look at what you are doing and try to reproduce it, since it works fine in other instances.
