Class type advanced settings

This article describes all the advanced settings that are available when you are creating a class type.

To learn about the general information settings available when creating or modifying an class type, see class type general information settings.

To learn about setting purchase restrictions, see Types of purchase rules.

NoteWhen the settings for a service are changed, those changes won’t apply to sessions of the service that you've already scheduled. Any upcoming sessions of the service that you’ve already scheduled must be canceled and scheduled again for the changes to apply. For example, if a service is scheduled for May 30 and the price of that service is changed on May 15, clients won’t have to pay the new price for the service. For the new price to apply, the service scheduled on May 30 must be canceled and then scheduled again.

In-person or Virtual ServiceA setting that determines whether your clients will attend the class in person at your studio, or remotely via a FitLIVE service, a Zoom meeting, or other non-integrated virtual service.

NoteTo start a non-integrated virtual service from WellnessLiving, you must sign in to the hosting platform beforehand. For more information, see Hosting a virtual service.

Note If you have selected Virtual service, This is an integrated Zoom virtual service, or This is a non-integrated virtual service for a class with upcoming sessions scheduled and want to change the class to an in-person service, we recommend you cancel the upcoming sessions before you can change the setting to This is an in-person service.

If you change the class settings to This is an in-person service without canceling existing sessions, previously scheduled sessions of this class may still appear on your schedule with the virtual service icon .

Age RestrictionA setting that determines whether classes of this type are restricted to clients in a certain age range. Select one of the following options:

  • Open to all ages – Classes of this type will not be restricted by age.
  • Restricted to certain ages – If you select this option, enter the Minimum Age or Maximum Age that clients must be within to book the class. You can also select an Age Range if you want to make the classes available to clients within a particular age group. If you want the age restriction to be displayed to clients, set the Display age restriction to clients option to ON. If this option is set to OFF, classes of this type will not be displayed on your schedule to clients who do not meet the age requirements.

Clients can’t book a service with an age restriction if they haven’t entered their date of birth on their client profile.

NoteWhen class types have an age restriction, clients must be the correct age at the time of booking to successfully book a class. For example, if a class is restricted to clients who are age 18 and above and a client is going to turn 18 in two days, the client cannot book a class that takes place in three days, even though they will be the correct age when the class takes place.

NoteThe Display age restriction to clients setting only affects clients who are logged in to their accounts. Clients who are not logged in will be able to view all services and will not see any indication that age restrictions exist even if this option is set to ON.

NoteConfirmation is required for staff members to book a client whose age is outside of the specified age range for a class with an age restriction.

For each required asset, you must also select one of the following options:

  • This asset is reserved individually per client – One asset is reserved for each client who books this class. For example, if the class requires stationary bikes, one bike can be reserved for each client. If you select this option you must also choose one of the following options:
    • Client is able to choose which asset they would like to reserve – Clients will be able to select which asset they would like to reserve when booking this class. If a class requires an asset from two or more different asset categories, the client must select one asset from each category when booking the class.
    • Asset is selected automatically and the client cannot change the reservation – An asset will be selected and reserved automatically when a client books this class.
  • This asset is reserved for the entire class – One asset is reserved for communal use by all clients who booked the class. For example, if a room is required for the class, you can reserve the room to ensure it cannot be booked by other staff members or clients during the class.
