Setup Your Class Schedule
This article walks you through the process of setting up your class schedule in FitHive. Before you can schedule classes on your calendar, you'll need to create your class types and class templates.
Once those are configured, you can begin scheduling classes, customizing class settings, and extending your schedule.
Step 1: Create Your Class Types
Class Types help organize your different class offerings (for example, Yoga, HIIT, Personal Training, or Spin).
To create a Class Type:
- Go to Settings > Class Schedule > Class Types.
- Click Add Type.
- Enter the class type name.
- Click Save.
- Repeat for each class type you offer.
Step 2: Create Your Classes
Once your Class Types have been created, you'll need to create each class template.
Navigate to:
Settings > Class Schedule > Classes Available
Click Add Class and complete the class information, including:
- Class Name
- Class Type
- Default Duration
- Description
- Default Settings
These defaults will automatically populate whenever the class is added to your schedule, saving time and ensuring consistency.
Step 3: Add Classes to Your Schedule
After creating your class templates, navigate to:
Schedule > Schedule Classes
There are two ways to schedule a class:
Option 1: Add Event
Click Add Event and complete the class details.
Option 2: Click the Calendar
Click and drag on the calendar to highlight a time slot.
Select the class from the list, then either:
- Create with Defaults to use the saved class settings.
- Customize to modify the class before saving.
Step 4: Configure Class Settings
When creating a class, configure the following settings:
- Class – Select the class template.
- Instructor – Choose the instructor teaching the class.
- Date & Time – Set when the class will begin.
- Duration – Select the class length.
- Signup Threshold – Choose how close to class members can register.
- Cancellation Threshold – Set when members can cancel.
- Maximum Attendees – Set a class capacity or enter 0 for unlimited.
- Price – Enter the class price or 0 for a free class.
- Active – Displays the class on your website.
- Members Only – Restricts registration to active members.
- Members No Charge – Allows selected memberships to attend at no cost.
These settings determine how members can view, register for, and attend the class.
Step 5: Extend Your Schedule
Once you've created your schedule, you can quickly copy it into future weeks.
Click Copy Schedule, select the date range you want to copy, choose the future start date, confirm the copy, and execute the process.
Important: Review your schedule carefully before copying it. Correcting mistakes after copying a large date range can be time-consuming.
