After the above, I’ve just tried something else that may mean that it is the Points field that is the problem. I tried the following in this order:

1. Make no adjustments to the first 65 and make an adjustment to the 66th. This results in no adjustments being saved for that player.

2. Remove games played and points from the list (leaving goals, assists and penalties) and then repeating the above test case. This results in adjustments being made for that player.

3. Do the same on the 101st (and last) player. This results in adjustments being made for that player.

4. Restore the Games Played and Points values. The fields re-appear in the table and all adjustments remain.

5. Set Games Played adjustment on the 101st player. The adjustments for both the 66th and 101st player are reset to zero.

Given that points is added using the goals and assists values, I never actually make an adjustment to that field. So I tried steps 2 to 5 with Games Played re-added. This means there were no “calculation fields” in my table.

This allowed me to make the adjustments correctly for the 101st player. I then went back in and re-added Points to the table since I need to make that field be displayed. This did not reset the adjustments.

So, I’m leaning towards this now possibly being how the Points field is represented in the update blowing out an environment limit.

Given that I was able to get the 101st player to appear correctly, I think I have a workaround that is going to work for me which I will test properly tomorrow.

However, I’d still like to know, in case I hit this problem in the future, if there is an environment variable that is on too low a setting to allow me to manage adjustments on a player list of a certain length.

Thanks again,
Graham.

Slightly confused by your solution. If I read it right, you have created one “super season” which the totals have picked up. I’m assuming that you’ve done this through a player list and manually entered their totals? If so, did you do anything different in the way that you created that list? Just seems strange that it was able to pick up that single, amalgamated season but not individual seasons.

Ultimately, I think what you’ve done would work for me, although I’ve failed to replicate it so far.

In ice hockey, there is a global statistical website called EliteProspects. I’ve created a plug in that allows me to embed their data in my player pages:

http://www.bristolpitbulls.co.uk/player/richie-hargreaves/

So, losing granularity at player level doesn’t bother me. What I’m trying to do is create totals so that we can acknowledge landmarks (e.g. 100th game, 100th goal) and keep track of club records (e.g. most appearances, most goals). Similar to what you’ve done with your history page.

To do that, I’ve got a page that tracks career stats for our current players (a second page that covers every player to have played for us will be created once I’ve got to the bottom of this issue):

http://www.bristolpitbulls.co.uk/list/current-team-all-time-statistics/

So, would be curious as to the exact make up of your “super season” to get them included in this page. As I say, so far I’ve been unable to replicate what you’ve done. I’m not even getting the inconsistent behaviour you describe. I can’t get anything I’ve entered manually to be included on that page.

As I said in my opening post, the issue isn’t about managing the size of the effort. I have season summaries for each player who has played for us. But, after his length of time, I know that we don’t have stats for every single game that we’ve played.

Hi Roch,

Not looking to make changes in wp-admin. From reading the feature description in the release notes, I interpreted it as tabs within the SportsPress template could be renamed.

As an example, I have an event at http://www.bristolpitbulls.co.uk/event/bristol-pitbulls-v-slough-jets.

Under the Excerpt tab, I have a gamesheet that is pulled in from an external website used by our league (fixtureslive.com) rather than from our own website. To do this, I have the code snippet inserted into the Excerpt field on the event.

What I would like in order of preference (lowest to highest):

1. Rename Excerpt to Game Sheet on every page, not just events. While this isn’t ideal, I don’t use Excerpts anywhere else, so if it had to be a global change, then it would work for me.

2. Rename Excerpt to Game Sheet on just the event page. That way, if I decided to use Excerpts elsewhere in the future, it wouldn’t be a problem.

3. The Holy Grail! Be able to add a new custom tab that works similar to, for example, the Video tab. In other words, be able to add a new field on to the “Edit Event” page and have whatever I put in that field appear in its own tab. I suspect that I could create code that would allow me to display extra tabs, but I don’t believe that I can create code that would allow me to change the “edit” page so that I could add new custom values to an event (which is why I currently override the Excerpt field).

Thanks!
Graham.
