Creating Events
How to create a program
Events in Monstro X are built as programs with scheduled sessions. Open the Programs page in your location dashboard and click + Program to start.
- Enter the Program Name and Description.
- Set the Capacity for the number of attendees.
- Optionally set Min Age and Max Age restrictions.
- In the Session Scheduling section, choose the Day, Time, and Duration in minutes.
- Select the Default Assigned Staff from the dropdown.
- Pick a Calendar Color to identify the program on the schedule.
- Enable Waitlist if you want members to queue when capacity is reached.
- Enable Make-up Class if you want to allow make-up sessions for missed classes.
- Set a Cancellation Threshold if you want to limit how late a member can cancel.
- Save the program.
[!INFO]
Programs represent recurring events. Each scheduled day/time pair becomes a recurring session.
How to add a session to an existing program
If you need an extra session outside the regular schedule, add it directly to the program.
- On the Programs page, find the program row.
- Click the more options (⋯) menu and select Add Session.
- Choose the Day, Time, and Duration in minutes.
- Save the new session.
How to edit or cancel a session
Program details can be updated from the program list, but individual sessions are managed separately.
- To update the program name, capacity, or other settings, open the more options (⋯) menu on the program row and select Update.
- To cancel a single session, open the more options (⋯) menu on the session and select Cancel Session.
[!WARNING]
Sessions cannot be edited from the Update Program modal. You must cancel the individual session and add a new one if the time changes.
What to do next
- Add a member so they can enroll in the program.
- Set up holiday and custom closures if you need to block sessions for holidays or special events.
- Send a group message to notify members about schedule changes.
