Seller Settings 

Before setting up your products, you need to first complete your seller settings. Here’s how you can go about it:

• Step 1 – Login to your account and you’’ll be redirected to the dashboard.
• Step 2 – Go to Seller Settings and this is how you will see your page:

• Step 3- Fill your address and make sure your location is visible on the map as shown below, click on SAVE. Note that without saving your location, no profile changes will be accepted. So, this is a very important step. 

• Step 4 – This is all about your brand setup. Add all your general settings like email, phone number, and about you.

Now, coming to the Seller Banner Type, this controls the big header image or media shown on your store’s page.

You’ll usually see 3 options here:

1. Static Image

• You upload one image that stays the same all the time.
• Example: A nice studio photo for your dance coaching brand.
• Common size: 1200x400px (desktop), but check theme requirements.
  

2. Slide

• Lets you upload multiple images that rotate like a slideshow.
• Useful if you want to show different class moments, offers, or testimonials in rotation. You can use the “+” sign to add more images for the slides. 

3. Video

• You can upload a short video file or embed from YouTube.
• Great for showing a welcome message, dance performance snippet, or promotional clip.
• Keep it short (10–30 seconds) for faster loading.

Tip: If you choose “Slide” or “Video,” extra fields will appear to upload multiple files or paste video links. If you choose “Static Image,” you’ll see only one upload field.

Seller Visibility Setup

These settings control what information is shown on your public seller page.

• Seller Page Name Position → Where your store name appears (e.g., “At Header” means top of the page).
• Products per page → How many products/services are shown before pagination (e.g., 8).
• Hide Email / Phone / Address / Map / About / Policy →
  • Tick to hide that info from customers.
  • Useful if you want only certain contact details shown.

Please click on “SAVE” after completing your settings. 

• Step 5 – Set up your payment. There are two ways by which you can setup your payment withdrawal method – Bank transfer or Stripe account. 

• Step 6: Now, add the customer care details of your brand. 

Step 7: Add the seller hours. This section lets you set the days and hours your store is “open” for orders or bookings. It’s mainly useful if you only want customers to place orders during certain times or want to show your working schedule on your store page.

Seller Hours Setting

This is where you turn the feature on or off.

• If enabled, you can set specific working hours and days.
• If disabled, your store is considered open all the time.

Enable Seller Hours

• Tick this to turn on business hours control.
• Once enabled, you’ll see options to set daily opening and closing times.
• Example: If your dance classes are only bookable between 9 AM and 8 PM, you can set that here.

Disable Purchase During OFF Time

• If ticked, customers cannot make purchases or bookings outside your set hours.
• If unticked, customers can still buy anytime, but your page will just display “closed” outside of hours. Example: If you only want people to book during working hours (like 10 AM–7 PM), enable this option.

Set Week OFF

This is for choosing which days your store is completely closed.

• Just tick the days you are off.
• Example for dance coaching:
  • If you don’t take new enrollments on Sundays, tick Sunday.
  • The store will show as closed and won’t allow bookings on that day (if purchase restriction is enabled).

Step 8: Fill in all the seller profile details. Add your social accounts, whichever are available – FB, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, etc. Once done, click on save:

After you save all the details, you can see the settings percentage.  Aim to make it 100%. In this case, it’s 58% since we didn’t add a few details. But please follow the above suggestions when you set up your seller details. 

How to Set Up a Dance Coaching Class – Steps to Know 

Step 1 – Make It a Bookable Product

Where to click:

1. On the left menu, click Products → Add New.

2. There’s a dropdown at the top — choose Bookable Product.

Step 2 – Add Your Class as a New Product

Where to click:

1. In the box at the top, type:
   30-Days Dance Coaching (this is the title your customers will see).

2. In the large text box below, write about your class — what’s included, benefits, and schedule outline. Also, choose the category.  You can also add images.

Step 3 – Set the Booking Duration

Where to click:

1. In the General tab under Product Data:
   • Booking duration → Fixed blocks of → type 30 → choose Days from the dropdown.
2. Choose fixed, defined blocks.

Note:
A “block” is the length of the booking. Since your course is 30 days long, we make one block = 30 days.

Step 4 – Control When People Can Book

Where to click:

Max bookings per block → 10
(You can have up to 10 students in a single 30-day class.)

Minimum block bookable → 1
(Customers must book at least 1 day in advance — so they can’t book on the same day the class starts.)

Maximum block bookable → 6 months into the future
(This allows people to book a class that starts up to 6 months from today.)

Require a buffer period between bookings → 0 days
(Since each booking is already 30 days, you don’t need extra days in between.)

Adjacent Buffering → Leave unchecked
(Not needed unless you want gaps between sessions.)

All dates are… → Available by default
(We’ll make exceptions only if you manually block holidays or breaks.)

Check rules against… → All blocks being booked
(This ensures your 30-day block must be fully available before it shows on the calendar.)

Restrict selectable days? → Leave all days unchecked
(This means people can start their 30-day program on any day you’re offering.)

First block starts at… → Leave blank
(Since this is booked per day, there’s no set start time like 10:00 AM.)

Step 5 – Set Your Price

Where to click:

1. Go to the Costs tab.
2. Base cost → put the full price for 30 days (example: 200).
3. Leave the block cost blank if the price is fixed for the whole course.

Step 6 – Decide on Confirmation & Cancellation Rules

Where to click:

1. Still in Product Data → General tab:
   • Tick “Requires confirmation” if you want to approve each booking before payment.
   • Tick “Can be cancelled” and set a number (e.g., 7 days) if you want to allow cancellations.

Note:
If you don’t tick “Requires confirmation,” bookings are instantly confirmed and paid.

Step 7 – Publish and Preview

Where to click:

1. On the right side of the page, click Submit for Review.
2. Once approved by our admin team, it will be live, and your customers can book the product.
