School settings

Staff, branding, language, calendars and payment setup.

You can create a free course before setting up your school. Open Settings when you need to invite staff, take payments, connect a calendar or send mail from your own domain.

Common settings

AreaWhat you do there

TeamInvite staff and manage their access.
PaymentsConnect Stripe before selling paid course access.
SchedulingConnect a calendar before adding appointment slides.
EmailSet up a domain for course messages.

Only organization owners can change branding or manage the Stripe account. The following sections explain staff roles and email language. For terms and privacy documents, see Terms and privacy. For domains and CSS, see Domains and styles.

Roles and access

RoleWhat they can do
OwnerManage the organization name and branding, Stripe and staff roles.
ManagerWork with courses, groups and students without the settings reserved for owners.

In Settings → Team, choose Invite staff, enter the person's email and send the invitation. Check the pending invitation list. If it has not been accepted, you can resend or cancel it there. After acceptance, check that the person appears in the team.

An owner can change their role or remove their staff access. The last owner cannot be removed or changed to a manager. Students do not join the staff team; add them to a group to give them course access. Only owners can cancel and refund purchases.

Connect a booking calendar

Open Settings → Scheduling, choose Connect for Cal.com or Calendly and complete authorization with that service. On return, check that the connected account appears. If the connection or booking updates need attention, use the retry or reconnect action shown beside it.

In an appointment slide, choose that calendar account and the event students should book. Check the event's availability in the calendar service and try the lesson in Preview. Preview does not book a real appointment. Before disconnecting an account, check which appointment steps use it.

Choose personal notifications

Use Notifications → Preferences to choose your inbox and email updates. These choices belong to your account; they do not change a colleague's alerts. See Choose your notifications.

Email language

Course and group email settings offer English and Spanish. A course starts at Default (English). A group starts at Use course settings, meaning it follows its course until you choose a language for the group.

When the app sends an email, it first uses the student's chosen language if known. Otherwise it uses the group language, then the course language, and finally English. Changing a setting affects later emails, not messages already sent. Check the language before sending access messages.
