Holidays while Scheduling a Class



When creating a class, you will receive an alert about the holiday.
While creating a repeating class, if any class falls on a holiday, this information is displayed in the holiday section.
Tick the boxes if you’d like to create classes despite the holidays.
Proceed with the usual steps for creating the class.

💡 If you choose a date on the calendar that's marked as a blocked holiday, a prompt will appear asking whether you wish to proceed with the 'yes, proceed' and 'no, cancel' options. You can then proceed as per your preference.
