Let's Get Started with Class Types
Before building out your plans, it’s helpful to create and define different calendar types. Calendar types add an extra layer of segmentation, helping to manage member access to specific classes.
Some common examples include:
Group Fitness Classes
Fundamentals Classes
Level 1 Yoga Classes
Weight Classes
Youth Classes
Outdoor Classes
Online Classes
Where to find Class Types
From the PushPress dashboard head to Schedule and select Calendar.
Select the settings cog to find class type as an option.
Create a Class Type
After creating a calendar type, you can organize your schedule by calendar type and restrict access to specific calendar types when setting up a plan.
Steps to Create a Calendar Type:
Choose the “+ Class Type” Button
This will open a form to set up your calendar type.
Enter Calendar Type Details:
Name: Specify the calendar type name (e.g., Group Fitness, Yoga, etc.).
Color: Choose a color to easily identify this calendar type in your schedule.
Free Toggle (Yes/No): Indicate whether this calendar type is free or paid.
Description (Optional): Provide any additional details about this calendar type.
Fields for Calendar Type Creation:
Name:
This is the name of the calendar type, visible on the dashboard when creating new classes and in the member app.
Example: “Group Fitness,” “Fundamentals,” etc.
Calendar Type Color:
This color will visually identify all classes under this calendar type, making it easier to differentiate classes on the main calendar.
Free Toggle:
A free class will not count against the member’s pass, designed for events like family classes where members can attend without using limited membership classes or punchcards. This is not for a FREE trial.
Important Note: Members must have available classes or punches to reserve the class.
If a member checks into the free session, the class is credited back to their plan.
If they do not check-in, a class will be deducted from their plan.
Description (Optional):
Add more details about the calendar type, providing additional context about the class.
Delete a Class Type
If you need to remove a calendar type, follow these steps:
Locate the Calendar Type: Find the calendar type you want to delete on your dashboard.
Click the 3 Dots: Select the 3-dot menu next to the calendar type.
Choose “Delete”: Click “Delete” from the dropdown menu.
Confirm Deletion: A prompt will appear to confirm your choice. Confirm to delete the calendar type.
Edit a Class Type
To make changes to an existing calendar type, follow these steps:
Locate the Calendar Type: Find the calendar type you wish to edit on your dashboard.
