# Cannot add player

 * I am trying to add players to my site and it seems to save properly but the player
   is not visible anywhere, including in “All Players”.
 * I go to “Add New Player and fill out the fields such as First Name, Last Name,
   et cetera. Some of the fields are not applicable so I leave them blank, as well
   as the post title and post data. Pressing submit leads me to believe everything
   saved properly, but the link I am given leads to a 404. The player is also not
   visible in “All Players”.
 * Looking deeper into the database, it seems the post is saved there correctly 
   with the ID I am given in the link from the page. post_date is set to the time
   I submitted, but post_date_gmt is set to 0000-00-00 00:00:00. post_content is
   understandably blank, and post_title is Auto Draft. post_status is auto-draft,
   leading me to believe the save did not go through properly.
 * Any ideas on why the player shows up nowhere on my site? Should it not save as
   auto-draft?

 * Setting post_status to publish makes “Auto Draft” show in my “All Players” view.

 * Hi iggyvolz,
    Interesting. Can’t say I’ve seen that one before …
 * It’s possible that the plugin is doing something with auto-drafts since it has
   to recognize (and not validate/save) autodrafts. But I doubt that’s the problem
   because I haven’t seen it before now and it doesn’t quite sound like your problem.
   Have you looked at your WP error log? [`wp-content/error.log`]
 * Let me know.

 * I do not have my httpd configured to write error logs out to the folder but rather
   I have it configured to send everything to the global error log, where there 
   is nothing related to my wordpress there. wp-content/error.log does not exist.

 * Okay. The WP error log is not the same as the httpd error log.
 * I suggest you set that up. There are many posts on the web telling you how. [There’s even one such post on shoalsummitsolutions.com](http://shoalsummitsolutions.com/game-schedules-4-0-bugs-version-4-0-1/).
 * Let me know.

 * Odd… it now seems to be working afer I set up the debugging as you asked. It 
   may be related to the fact that I changed my URL scheme from the default to Day
   and Name, or the 4.1.1 upgrade.

 * I’ll mark this as resolved unless the issue comes back.

 * Cool. Note that if your permalinks are not set to POST NAME, single player pages(
   bios/profiles) and player gallery (pages) are not going to work. That’s explained
   in the users manual.
