Lobby View
This feature is in response to clubs wishing to show all courts across one page / screen.  Kudo's to the customers with Kiosk's and even a Jumbo-tron in the tennis lobby showing how the courts are booked (who is playing where, who is playing beside you, before you, after you, etc).

Sample: Open the Tennis Lobby in the demo club



Important Features:

• This page should be shown in 100% width
• This page is "inquiry only" and refreshes every 30 seconds
• The default opens to "today"
• If you attach a keyboard or mouse to your kiosk then your players can "advance the view 7 days (upper right hand part of the page)
• You can control "which" courts are presented in the lobby view
• 25% of the width of the Lobby view is reserved for you (right hand column).  Common uses include welcoming new members, making announcements, or advertising your Pro Shop services.
• Player names and comments ARE displayed in the active cells - so the link to this page should be from a Members Only page.

Setting up the Lobby View
On the Horizontal Navigation Bar go to Basic Settings | Tennis Court Scheduler | Option #12.

1)  Establish a Directory for your Lobby (4-6 characters, no spaces, no special characters - this will become part of the URL for the Lobby View page so you do not want it to be too long).



2)  Choose which courts to show in the Lobby View Basic Settings | Tennis Court Scheduler | Option # 1 - Courts and Hours

The 6th column (Tennis Lobby) is a toggle.  By default all courts are Hidden.  Click the word "Show" to show.  If a court is Shown, click the word "Hide" to Hide.  In the following example Indoor Courts 1, 2, 3, and Clay 4 are showing, Clay 1, 2, and 3 are not.



3)  View the Tennis Lobby (set user defined content)
Click the Tennis Lobby View link in the header to open the user-defined content area:



Create your user defined content.  TIP:  Use a table with 1 row / 1 column set to 25% of page width so your content looks well organized Here's how)



TIP: If you choose to make your lobby available on your web site, place a hyperlink to the Lobby View page on a members-only page.  Since the Lobby page can be quite wide, set the properties on the Hyperlink to open in a new page (or pop-up window @ 100% - here's how)

 If you choose not to put the Lobby View on your web site, Bookmark it on your Kiosk PC for easy retrieval (it is not on any menu so you need to copy and paste the URL).
