Time Slots
I created slots on the wrong date — how do I fix this?
- Go to the Appointments page.
- Open the Slots drop-down and select Move Slots.
This moves all slots (and any existing appointments) to a new date. You'll have the option to email anyone whose appointment is being moved.
My slots are 20 minutes long, but I want a 30-minute break in the middle.
If your break doesn't match your slot duration or a multiple of it (e.g., 20-minute slots with a 30-minute break), you'll need to create slots in two sections:
- Create slots for the time before the break.
- Create slots for the time after the break.
Why are some of my time slots grey?
Grey slots mean the teacher is unavailable at that time — typically because they're:
- Attending meetings as part of a team, or
- Booked elsewhere as a parent making their own appointments
Click the grey slot to see a message explaining where the teacher is booked.
Why are some of my time slots yellow?
Yellow slots indicate the scheduled time has already passed. These slots are hidden from parents/participants.
Fix: Check the date on these slots, then either delete them or move them to the correct date.
Slots on the correct (current/future) date will appear blue, indicating they're active and bookable.
I created time slots with the wrong duration.
Slot duration cannot be edited after creation. You'll need to:
- Delete the slots with the incorrect duration.
- Create new slots with the correct duration.
I created time slots with the wrong duration, and customers have already booked appointments.
Slot duration still cannot be edited directly — you'll need to delete and recreate the slots. However, since appointments already exist, you have options for handling them:
- Go to Slots / Delete Time Slots.
- A dialog will show you the number of existing appointments on the slots you're about to delete.
- Choose how to handle them:
- Cancel them — optionally send an email asking customers to reschedule, or
- Hold them — the default option moves affected appointments to a holding area on the Appointments List page, where you can review and manually cancel or reschedule each one.
