Carabao Cup games on wrong date

Carabao Cup games such as - https://thesportsdb.com/event/1384776 were being shown as being played 26/10/21 and not 27/10/21. I have had to manually update the dates.

Why is this?

I also made a report the 23 of October for a problem of dates (https://thesportsdb.com/forum_topic.php?t=5394 matches of some championships appeared several times cause of different dates).
Nothing was corrected.
Many bugs and wrong datas with this API (wrong dates, wrong badges or logos). When we signalized them, nothing is made
I stopped to use of this . I found a free website to display results. I cannot take the risk to display wrong datas.
With their negligences, our websites lose of their credibility

Hi,

I have no issue with manually updating incorrect dates.

What is annoying is when they get overwritten again by your importer. Which means I have to change them again.

Can this be addressed?

You also mentioned in another post - "The importer may decide to overwrite it but generally it just takes time to correct itself and will also make the same edit."

This wasn't the case, I had users asking me on the 26th why games they knew where being played on the 27th where being displayed as being played on the 26th.

You also mentioned you fixed an issue with the importer. Will that fix apply here too?

Yep my fault in the end, importer is now fixed.

There may be some cleanup to do so let me know if you see any issues.

Hi,

It's happening again, I've updated these fixtures manually 2-3 times now and they keep being overwritten.

https://thesportsdb.com/event/1392790
https://thesportsdb.com/event/1392792
https://thesportsdb.com/event/1392793

The fixture dates for all these fixtures should be: 22/12/21 @ 19:45

Please investigate as it's not good data for my end users.

Thanks

I've manually changed them myself, will keep an eye on it to see how long it lasts before the importer (I assume) reverts them to the incorrect dates.

edit: Just checked now and it has reverted to the incorrect dates, could you take another look, Zag?

I've removed the API number (3498) and changed the dates back once again in the mean time.

Unfortunately we are a slave to our API sources, I'm sure they will fix it eventually. Anyone can remove the API football ID if you want to go manual for a bit and skip the sync.
