Sport Presets
SportsPress includes built-in sport presets that configure the plugin for a specific sport in one step. Applying a preset creates the default positions, outcomes, results, performance columns, league table columns, and player statistics appropriate for that sport.
What Applying a Preset Does
When you apply a preset from SportsPress > Settings > General, the plugin:
Creates the default player positions (e.g., Goalkeeper, Defender, Midfielder, Forward for Football).
Sets up event outcome conditions (e.g., Win/Loss/Draw based on goals).
Configures event result columns (e.g., Goals).
Defines player performance (box score) columns (e.g., Goals, Assists, Yellow Cards).
Configures league table columns with the standard equations for that sport (e.g., Played, Won, Drawn, Lost, Points).
Sets up player statistics columns with the appropriate calculations.
Presets can be applied at any time from the General settings tab. Applying a preset will overwrite existing configuration data for all of the above areas, so it is best applied during initial setup.
