Duplicated demo data after a refresh
Refreshing the demo data is meant to wipe what is there and lay it down again, so the demo always looks the same. If something appears two or three times over, it is because that feature’s data was not being cleared before the new set was written.
The club store did exactly this until 9.99.231. Its price list is kept in a setting rather than a table, and the reset cleared tables, so the store was rebuilt on top of itself once per refresh.
Common questions
- I have duplicates already. How do I clear them?
- Update, then refresh the demo data once more. The reset now clears the store as well, so it comes back with a single clean set.
- Could anything else be duplicating?
- Everything else the demo creates lives in a table and is cleared properly — till products and sales, newsletters, events, leagues, competitions, store orders, bookings, rota and members were all checked against the reset in 9.99.231. If you do find something doubling up, it is worth reporting: it means another piece of data is being kept somewhere the reset does not look.
