Career totals summarize a player's statistics across all seasons and leagues into a single row.

The career total is calculated by summing all per-season values for each statistic. It is labelled Total internally (the <code>name</code> key in the merged data array is <code>'Total'</code>; the <code>team</code> key shows <code>'-'</code>).

For statistics whose type is Average rather than Total, the career total is re-calculated using the statistic's equation rather than simply summed, so averages remain meaningful across seasons.

There are two distinct total concepts in the Statistics meta box:

Season Total row — the footer row inside each per-league table. It shows the sum of all seasons within that league. This row is always displayed in the admin meta box. Toggling the Total display option in Player Settings controls whether this row shows on the frontend.

1. Season Total row — the footer row inside each per-league table. It shows the sum of all seasons within that league. This row is always displayed in the admin meta box. Toggling the Total display option in Player Settings controls whether this row shows on the frontend.

Career Total section — appears below all per-league tables when enabled. It adds statistics across all leagues the player belongs to. Enabling the Career Total display option in Player Settings controls whether this appears on both the admin and the frontend.

Go to SportsPress &gt; Settings &gt; Players.

Under the Statistics section, locate Display.

1. Go to SportsPress &gt; Settings &gt; Players.
2. Under the Statistics section, locate Display.
3. Check Career Total.
4. Save settings.

The option key is <code>sportspress_player_show_career_total</code>. Default value is <code>no</code>.

Enabling the Season Total Row on the Frontend

In the same Display checkbox group, check Total to show the per-league season total row on player profile pages. The option key is <code>sportspress_player_show_total</code>. Default value is <code>no</code>.

The career total can be overridden by entering values directly into the career total table row in the Statistics meta box on the player edit screen. Manual values are stored in <code>sp_statistics</code> under league ID <code>0</code>, season ID <code>0</code>. When a manual value is present it takes precedence over the auto-calculated total for that column.

The <code>SP_Player::data()</code> method:

Loops through all seasons the player is assigned to.

For each season, queries all competitive events where the player appears in <code>sp_players</code> meta.

Sums performance values into <code>$totals</code>.

Applies statistic equations to produce per-season values in <code>$placeholders</code>.

Builds <code>$merged</code> — the per-season rows.

After all seasons are processed, loops through <code>$merged</code> and accumulates a <code>$career</code> array.

For total-type statistics, adds all season values together.

For average-type statistics, re-solves the equation using the accumulated totals.

Merges any manually entered career data on top of the calculated values.

Stores the result at <code>$merged[-1]</code>.

The career row is keyed as <code>-1</code> in the <code>$merged</code> array internally.
