Closures, swaps and substitutes
A holiday, a moon-day swap, another teacher for one morning: how to change a single date without touching the rest.
Cancel one class
Section titled “Cancel one class”- In the app: tap the class on its date, then ❌ Cancel this class. ↩ Restore brings it back.
- In the bot: open the shala’s 🗓 Schedule and tap ❌ Cancel a class…. It lists the classes of the next 48 hours.
The class stays in the week, marked as cancelled, so nobody wonders where it went.
A substitute for one morning
Section titled “A substitute for one morning”Tap the class on its date in the app and choose someone under Teacher on this date. The week shows their name with “substitute”, and in /classes both teachers see who is covering.
Close the shala for a few days
Section titled “Close the shala for a few days”- In the app, open the shala and find 🏖 Shala closed.
- Set First day and Last day.
- Tap ➕ Add closed days.
All classes on those days show as cancelled, with the reason “shala closed”. You can close up to 92 days in a row, starting from today. 🗑 Remove opens the days again.
Moon days
Section titled “Moon days”What happens on a moon day follows the shala’s setting: see Classes and the week.
- To hold one class on a moon day anyway, tap it and then ✅ Hold anyway.
- If your shala observes the moon day on a different date from the calculated one, hold the classes on the calculated day and cancel them on yours. Members’ own moon days and reminders still show the calculated date, so send an announcement as well.
Swap a moon day
Section titled “Swap a moon day”When a moon day falls on a practice day, some shalas hold that day’s classes on their day off that week. If yours does, you can set it up here.
- Find 🔁 Swap a moon day on the shala’s screen.
- Choose the Moon day and the day to Hold its classes on.
- Tap ➕ Add the swap.
The new day can be the shala’s day off, or a day with no class of the same type, up to 6 days away. It can’t be another moon day or a day the shala is closed. Only the classes that were cancelled for the moon day or a closure move. 🗑 Undo the swap puts everything back.
Good to know
Section titled “Good to know”- Nobody gets a message about any of these changes. They show in the schedule and in people’s calendar subscriptions. For anything that matters, send an announcement too.
- The owner, managers, teachers and the front desk can make these changes.
