If your organization offers events, group classes or workshops where space is limited, you can easily publish class registration information and manage waitlists in Caredove.

First, navigate to Listings and create each class as a separate listing. In most cases, you will likely select Health Education Classes, Support Groups, Fitness Classes or other group-based activities. If the classes are only run a few months out of the year, the listing can be suspended at any time.

Tip: Be clear in your service description and location. Be sure to name the service so that you can easily recognize it later on. If the service is offered at more than one location, two listings are required. In these cases, we recommend adding the location to the service title, e.g., "Senior Fitness Class - Main Street" or "Craving Change - Main Campus".

In the status bar or description, indicate how many recurring classes there are, e.g., "Every Tuesday at 5 pm for 6 weeks". 

To start, navigate to your Calendar and select New Entry.

Next, select Group for the Event Type. Group Options will now appear as a section at the bottom of the appointment modal, where you can indicate Group Size and Enable Waitlist.

In the Timeslot, enter the start time of your event. Make sure to fill in all other required fields, such as the event date and duration.

If your group has more than one session, select “This group has multiple sessions”, and add the date and time for each of the additional sessions. (If you need to edit the first session date, scroll back to the top of the appointment modal and adjust it there.)

Click Create, and your group appointment will populate in your calendar on the first session start date and time.

Note: When you select "Use recurrence pattern description," a description box will appear. The text entered in this box will overwrite the multiple session dates. As a result, you will need to choose either the multiple session dates or the description field.

From the Calendar, you can view the attendance list at any time by selecting the appointment time. From here, you can:

Customize your automatic Emails and Handouts by navigating to Settings and select the relevant Calendar. Scrolling through the page, you can change the name of your group events, manage registrant reminder emails, and customize any outgoing emails or handout messaging.
