Managing Locations
The Locations section is where you add and manage the physical locations your business operates from. Each location stores its address, business hours, featured image, and the staff members who work there. Locations can then be assigned to specific services so customers know exactly where each service is available.
The Locations List
The Locations page displays all your business locations as cards in a column layout. Each card shows:
- A feature image (or a location pin icon if no image is set)
- The location name
- The address
- A staff badge showing how many staff members are assigned to that location (e.g., "3 STAFF")
- Edit and Delete action buttons
The sticky header shows the total location count, a search bar, and controls for sorting and adding new locations.
Searching
Type in the search bar to filter locations by name, address, city, state, or country. Results update automatically as you type. Click the × to clear the search.
Reordering Locations
The order you set here controls the order locations appear on your site.
- Click the Sort button in the header.
- A drag handle appears on each card.
- Drag locations up or down into the order you want.
- Click Update Sort to save.
Adding a Location
Click New to open the full-screen Add Location form. The form is divided into a main content area on the left and a sidebar on the right.
Location Details
Name Required. The display name for this location (e.g., "Downtown Clinic" or "North Shore Studio").
Address Required. Start typing the address and select it from the autocomplete suggestions that appear. The system uses Google Places to fill in the full address, city, country, and geographic coordinates automatically. You must select a suggestion from the list — a manually typed address will not be accepted.
Working Hours
Time Zone Select the timezone for this location. All the opening and closing times you enter are interpreted in this timezone. It defaults to your browser's detected timezone.
Business Hours by Day Each day of the week has its own row with three controls:
- A checkbox to enable or disable that day
- A Start Time picker
- An End Time picker
By default, Monday through Friday are enabled with hours of 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM, and Saturday and Sunday are disabled. Check or uncheck any day and adjust the times to match your actual schedule. Time pickers are disabled for days that are unchecked.
Feature Image (Sidebar)
Required. Click Select Image to choose a photo from your media library. A preview appears once selected. To remove it, click Clear.
Staff (Sidebar)
Required. Click the Staff dropdown and select at least one staff member who works at this location. You can assign multiple staff members. The dropdown shows all staff accounts in your system — select everyone who should be available at this location.
Editing a Location
Click the pencil icon on any location card to open the edit form with all existing values pre-loaded. All fields are the same as when creating a location. Click Update to save your changes.
Deleting a Location
Click the trash icon on a location card. A confirmation dialog will appear before anything is permanently removed. Deleting a location does not delete the staff members or services associated with it.
Tips
- Set accurate business hours per location. If two of your locations have different opening times, each location stores its own schedule independently — you don't need to compromise between them.
- Use the Time Zone field carefully. If your location is in a different timezone than where you're managing the CMS, make sure the timezone is set to the location's local time, not yours.
- Assign all relevant staff to each location. Staff assignment controls which team members appear as available for bookings at that location — anyone not assigned to a location won't be selectable there.
- The Sort order matters. If you have multiple locations, the order you set here is the order customers see them listed when choosing where to book.
- A descriptive name helps customers choose. Use names like "King Street — Toronto" or "East Campus" rather than "Location 1" or "Branch 2" — customers see this name when selecting where to book.
