Click, drag, and drop a Theme Day menu from the Theme Days list [4] onto a date in the Calendar [5].

Once a Theme Day menu has been added to the calendar the Add Class Override window will automatically open.

NOTE

The Edit Class Override can be opened by clicking the Theme Day menu that has been applied in the calendar.

In the Add Class Override window the Checkboxes [6] are all selected by default. If this selection is not changed, the Theme Day menu will be applied to all students across the whole site who have the selected student template assigned. Un-select the Checkboxes for the classes that will not need the Theme Day menu.

Use either the Select/Deselect All checkbox [7] to unselect all classes and tick the relevant classes the menu should apply to or untick specific classes the menu should not apply to.

When you have made the necessary changes in the Class Override table click the OK [8] button.
