Categories - Calendar Events Organization

Are you struggling to organize and categorize the many different types of events in your schedule? When you want to restrict memberships to specific events, navigating between all the options becomes complicated? Our new tool we developed for you solves this issue by grouping similar events together under one category. For example, we can gather the events "Functional Training", "Weight Lifting", and "TRX" under the category "Power".

To get started, we will show you how to add a new category to your calendar. All you need to do is click on the "Settings" icon (located in the top right corner of the "Calendar" page) and select "Booking Services":

You will notice a new button - "Manage Categories", please click on it:

Click on "Manage Categories" to add your first category

Now, choose a name for your category, and gather different service types under the same category:

Pick a name for your category, and gather different services under one category
Every time you add a new event to your calendar you can easily choose which category to classify it under.

Where do we go now?


Great! You have successfully added your first category to the management platform. Now, we would like to show you how to maximize the use of this tool. To make it easier for business owners with many different events, we have created a new filter in the calendar! From now you can filter the general calendar view to only show events under a specific category:

We saved the best for last!

From now on we save you precious time and keep order in restricting memberships. Press the "Settings" category, choose "Membership Types", and edit one of your existing memberships:

Click the "Settings" page, and choose the "pencil" icon under "Membership Types" to exploit this feature to the fullest.

As you can see in the example bellow, we have restricted this specific membership to 3 registrations per week. The registrations include all events gathered under the "Yoga" category:

Now you can restrict your memberships frequency easily! Just pick a category, instead of filtering many different events.

Instead of picking between many different event types that fit the "Yoga" category, we have easily applied the restriction and saved you valuable time!
