Once you activate the plugin, you will find the “Players” option in your admin dashboard. This section includes three sub-options:
- All Players – View a list of all players.
- Add New Player – Manually add a player by entering their name, price, and club.
- Export or Import Players – Bulk import players via CSV file upload.
To import players successfully, your CSV file must adhere to the following format:
Title,Position,Price,Club
Manuel Neuer,Goalkeeper,10,Bayern Munich
Marc-André ter Stegen,Goalkeeper,11,Bayern Munich
Oliver Baumann,Goalkeeper,12,Bayern Munich
For example, if Chelsea and Manchester United are playing in a few days, simply create a CSV file with players from both teams and upload it using the “Import Players” option.
Once you’ve imported players and clubs via CSV, you can proceed to create new leagues. As an admin, you also have the option to allow subscribers to create their own leagues, players, or clubs. This setting can be configured in the WordPress admin settings area under WPFantasy Settings.
