Cancelling Make-Ups
|
When your customers want to cancel a make-up on your website, they can now select from a list of their pending make-ups. They'll see this behavior if they have logged in before visiting the "Cancel Make-Up" page. Users who have not logged in will continue to need to search for their make-ups before cancelling.

New Make-Up / Attendance integration
|
Your families can now schedule make-ups and mark absences at the same time. New optional settings have been added to Setup > Settings > Make-Up Settings to support this. When these new options have been activated, the process will look like this: - Your customer will need to select the class they will be missing based on their current enrollments. They can also select an absence that has already been marked for them, if any.
- Then they can schedule the make-up.
- Scheduling the make-up will mark them as absent if the class meeting they selected.
The new settings look like this. By default they are disabled. The first option turns on the new behavior. The other two options give you additional control over the process. Scheduling make-ups when users are logged in [ ] Show a list of class meetings so users can mark future absences or reference a prior marked absence [ ] Users can only reference meetings and absences in currently active semesters when scheduling make-ups
[ ] Allow make-ups to reference unexcused absences Note: customers will need to log in on your website to use this feature. Important: this is a new two-step process for scheduling a make-up. It will be a different experience for your returning families. You may want to let them know about the change and/or be familiar with how it works yourself.

Add multiple elements to a layout column
|
Columns in class listing layouts now support multiple items for a given column. Class images can also be included in class schedule layouts. This can allow for a great deal more creativity in your class listing layouts.
For example,
- you can stack multiple buttons vertically
- you can put class start and end dates into a single column
- you can combine a class image and the class name into a single column
- you can add formatting around various elements (like borders, background colors, shading, etc.)
See the attached image for illustrations of some of these ideas.
When using this feature, each element will need to be positioned in the space using padding, margins, alignment, etc. This is necessary to get the best results. When you edit a layout column in Website > Settings > Named Layouts, you'll see a new formatting option is associated with each element for this purpose.
Please reach out to support if you need any help with this new option.
Reminder: images can be added to Class Types at Setup > General > Class Types. Those images can be selectively overridden at the class level if needed.
