There are two types of classes in Community Connect and here is a guide that will help users understand how the various class options dictate how it will be displayed in Online Sales.
First, some basic background on classes. The two types of classes are Roster classes and Drop In classes.
Roster Class - Allow single visit purchases and/or the entire class to be purchased (all activities) and include a wait-list.
Drop In Class - Are single visit purchases and they have a limited registration window prior to the start of the activity (by default each activity can only be purchased 2 hours prior).
When setting up either type of class users can add individual, one-off activities or generate a bunch of activities via a schedule.
Online Sales will vary in appearance depending on how the classes are set up.
Roster Classes
A basic roster class will show the class schedule which includes the applicable dates, days of the week and time and when selected it will show customers all individual activities.
A roster class with multiple schedules will show customers the first two schedules and when selected it will display all schedules and individual activities.
A roster class that allows single visit purchases will display the schedule and show the next few upcoming activities. When selected, the details will default to the class purchase and show all of the individual activities.
When setting up a class with only single visits it is recommended to use the Drop In class type below.
Drop In Classes
A drop in class will appear the same in Online Sales regardless if set up with a schedule or single activity. The search result for a drop in class will display the next six upcoming activities. When selected it will show all activities but only allow customers to select activities that are currently available for purchase.
