 * Im currently building a website for a client. I need to know 2 things:
 * – How can I set Win is 5 points, Draw 3 points, 1 point for a loss if you score
   more than half your opposition score
 * – I imported a csv file and it didn’t populate the fixtures so it looks like 
   I will have to manually add them
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fpoints-value%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hi there!
 * Thanks for reaching out.
 * Please, open a topic for each of your issues, otherwise it can get really confusing.
 * Regarding the first one, you can change the points formula under SportsPress 
   > Configure.
 * You’ll probably need 2 different event outcomes for your loss, one for loss w/
   more than half of the opposition score (1 point) and one for loss (0 points).
 * Thanks!

 * Hi Luke!
 * Thanks for your reply.
 * Sure, let me expand on that idea.
 * So instead of just win/draw/loss, you’ll have win/draw/loss1/loss or any names
   that you want).
 * Then in your events, the win/draw can still be automatic outcomes (most goals,
   equal goals, for example), so you don’t need to worry about them. But you’ll 
   need to manually select which loss is the correct one for the event when you 
   are adding it.
 * Then in the points formula, you’ll have this:
 * POINTS = Win * 5 + DRAW * 3 + LOSS1
 * Please try this setup and let me know how it works for you.
    Thanks!

 * The win for 5 points works but the draw only gave 1 of the teams (i think away
   team) 3 points and not both.
 * Also how does the loss1 calculate (loss if you score more than half your opposition
   score)

 * Hi Luke,
 * Thanks for your reply.
 * No worries at all, we are here to help you. But please make sure you check our
   replies in full, as some things have already been replied to.
 * If you don’t understand it, that’s fine, I’d be glad to explain it as many times
   as needed. But please let us know what exactly you’ve tried so we’ll know what
   is or isn’t working.
 * Now as for the formula, it is used under SportsPress > Configure.
 * First you need to add a new event outcome for the new loss type. Then you’ll 
   need to edit the current loss so it isn’t automatic:
    [https://prnt.sc/1rf4xom](https://prnt.sc/1rf4xom)
 * Then look for the table columns section. That’s where you create your columns
   and edit them.
    [https://prnt.sc/1rf4z6k](https://prnt.sc/1rf4z6k)
 * You can use our drag and drop interface to build your formula.
 * “Also how does the loss1 calculate (loss if you score more than half your opposition
   score)”
 * Please refer to:
    “Then in your events, the win/draw can still be automatic outcomes(
   most goals, equal goals, for example), so you don’t need to worry about them.
   But you’ll need to **manually select** which loss is the correct one for the 
   event when you are adding it.”
 * So you’ll need to manually select which is the correct loss type for your event.
   There’s no way to set them automatically in your events for this specific rule.
 * “The win for 5 points works but the draw only gave 1 of the teams (i think away
   team) 3 points and not both.”
    Please send us a screenshot of your current points
   formula. It’s likely that there’s an error in the math or formatting.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi Luke!
 * No worries at all.
 * I made these remarks just so our communication is easier to understand. So if
   at any moment anything in my replies isn’t clear, feel free to quote it, I’m 
   glad to re-explain, show screenshots and find other ways to help you.
 * As for your points formula, that’s very interesting. Your formula seems to be
   correct. You just need to add now “+ Loss1” for that new component.
 * So now that the formula is correct, let’s look at your events/competition.
 * Can you send us a link to your league table again? If possible, please create
   a column for draws, so we can confirm if the formula matches the events that 
   are loaded.
 * I’ve tried to find an example in your original link but I couldn’t, and I’ve 
   tried to find other league tables in your menu, but all of them are empty. So
   maybe your test league table is in another page.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi Luke,
 * How are you doing? It’s always good to see you.
 * That’s really odd.
 * We usually don’t do this, but can you send us a message to the presales channel?
   
   support.themeboy.com/
 * Just select that you don’t have a license key.
 * I can give you some help beyond what we can do here.
 * In case you want to check some things by yourself, I’d verify if these teams 
   are all assigned to the correct competitions, if you don’t have any duplicate
   variables (for example more than one variable for loss1) and finally set all 
   events to drafts then publish them one by one to see if I find which one is causing
   this.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi Luke!
 * Thanks for your reply.
 * Did you check my previous message?
 * Please send us a message there, at this point I’m not sure what else could be
   wrong just by looking at the frontend.
 * Thanks.
