Close the gym for a day or a holiday

Mark the days the gym won't open, such as public holidays or a summer break, so no classes are scheduled on them.

Needs the Manage schedule permission.

  1. Open Schedule in the sidebar, then the Closed days tab.
  2. Select Add closed day.
  3. Pick the First day. For a run of days, such as August, pick a Last day too.
  4. Optionally write What members see, such as the holiday’s name, and a Note for staff only your team sees.
  5. Select Close these days.

What closing a day does

  • The weekly schedule puts no classes on it.
  • Classes on that day with nobody booked are cancelled.
  • The calendar and your website’s timetable show the day as closed, with what you wrote for members, or “Closed” if you left it blank.
  • No new class can be added on it.

Today can be closed too: classes that have already started are left alone.

A day with booked classes can’t be closed

Orlo won’t cancel anyone’s booking for you when you close a day. If a class on that day has bookings, Orlo lists those classes and saves nothing. Cancel each one from the calendar first, which refunds its members and lets you tell them, then close the day again.

Reopening a day

Select Reopen next to the closed day. Its classes go back on the calendar, empty. To change the dates of a closed day, reopen it and add a new one. Its label and note can be edited at any time.

Holidays

Orlo doesn’t keep a list of public holidays. Ask the assistant, for example “close us on Barcelona’s public holidays next year”: it looks the dates up, lists them for you to check, and closes the ones you choose.
