Adding students

There are two ways to add students to FightKit — manually for one-off additions, or via CSV import when migrating from another system.

Add a student manually

Go to Students → Add student. Fill in the student's details and click Save.

Import students from a CSV file

If you're migrating from another system, export your student list as a CSV and import it at Students → Import.

The import process has five steps:

1. Upload

Upload your CSV file.

2. Column matching

FightKit will try to match your CSV columns to student fields automatically. Review the mapping and adjust if anything looks wrong. If your file has separate first and last name columns, FightKit can combine them automatically — look for the combined option in the Name dropdown.

The only required field is Name. All other fields — email, phone, date of birth, address, emergency contact, rank, notes — are optional.

3. Preview

Review the students that will be imported. FightKit will flag any rows with missing required fields or duplicate names (both within your file and against existing students).

4. Import

Click Import to start the import. Only valid students will be imported. Duplicates are flagged as a warning but will still be imported — review the preview carefully if you see any.

5. Complete

Once done, click View students to see your imported students.
