Multi-session class

I am looking at possibly switching over to Checkfront and was wondering if it supports a single inventoried event being spread across multiple days. For example: we have a lathe class at our woodshop that will run on:

10/3 (1-5PM)

10/5 (1-5PM)

10/10 (1-5PM)

This is one instance of 'a class' that will be spread across three days. I can see how to make a one session class and have it show up on the calendar, but not a multi-session class. Our classes currently run from 1 to 4 sessions. The dates and times may not conform to a pattern.

We also have class prerequisites, but those will be addressed in the class description.

 

Thanks

  Hello Charles,

  Isadora here from Checkfront support. Thank you for getting in touch, and I'm more than happy to assist with this matter. 😁

  Absolutely, Checkfront does support this type of configuration! You can easily achieve this by creating a product to represent your class, assigning it per timeslot, and attaching two upsells to account for the additional days.

  Here's how you can set it up:

  1. Create a product that represents your class and allocate it to the first day's timeslot:
     - Availability Event: 10/3 (1-5PM)

  2. Next, create two copies of the class product with the visibility set to "Upsell." Adjust the availability events for each to match the respective additional days:
     - Availability Event for first copy: 10/5 (1-5PM)
     - Availability Event for second copy: 10/10 (1-5PM)

  3. Attach these upsell copies to the main class product. Ensure that each upsell has a custom date restriction, set to start 2 days and 7 days after the start date of the class.

  Alternatively, you could create the primary class product with just the availability event for the initial day, and include information in the product description indicating that it's a multi-session class.

  I trust this guidance will prove helpful to Checkfront.

  Should you require further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. My colleagues at Checkfront Support and I are here to help at any time!

  Best regards,
