The “Create New” shortcut in the top-left corner of your admin panel is designed to save you time when you’re managing things behind the scenes.
It gives you fast access to three core tools used by studio teams:
Admin Session
Admin Bundle
Slot Blocker
These actions can also be initiated elsewhere in the CMS, but this shortcut puts them all in one convenient place—perfect for when you're working quickly or jumping between tasks.
🔧 Where to find it:
At the top-left corner of your Admin Panel
Look for the button labeled:
“Create New”
Click it to reveal the dropdown menu with the following options:
✍️ 1. New Admin Session
Used to manually book a session for a client—ideal for handling:
Custom or off-platform bookings
Partnerships or private clients
Manual overrides for complex scheduling situations
When you create an Admin Session, you can:
Enter the client’s email
Choose setup, base service, date/time, and add-ons
Adjust pricing (optional)
Add internal notes
📌 Important:
Admin-created sessions do not send a payment link. The client will receive a booking confirmation and calendar invite, but payment must be handled separately via Stripe, Square, or other manual methods.
🎁 2. New Admin Bundle
Used to manually assign a bundle to a client account without requiring them to go through the purchase flow on the website.
Perfect for:
Complimentary packages
Partnerships
Pre-arranged deals
Offline purchases
You can choose:
Which bundle to assign
How many sessions it includes
Which client receives it
Once created, the bundle will appear in their user profile, just like any regular bundle purchase.
⛔ 3. New Slot Blocker
Used to temporarily block off time on a specific setup (room) to prevent bookings. This is ideal for:
Studio maintenance
Staff time off
External use of the space
Custom session setup
Slot Blockers are set at the room level, and override availability for the selected time.
If a client tries to book during this time, they won’t see it as available.
✅ Why it matters:
The “Create New” shortcut isn’t just a time-saver—it helps you:
Move quickly without breaking your workflow
Handle internal bookings or exceptions with ease
Prevent mistakes by keeping key tools in one place
It’s especially useful for teams managing bookings in real time or dealing with high-touch client relationships.
🔄 Also accessible elsewhere:
While the “Create New” button is the fastest route, you can also access each of these tools from their dedicated pages:
Admin Session → from the Sessions tab
Slot Blocker → from the Slot Blocker tab
Admin Bundle → from the Bundles tab
✅ Summary:
The Create New shortcut is your fast lane for managing bookings, bundles, and blocked times. It’s small, but powerful—especially when you’re wearing multiple hats and need to keep operations moving without skipping a beat.
