PT Manager's My Menu Gives Every Tool Its Own Switch, So The Home Page Shows Only The Rooms You Run

In short: PT Manager has a My menu page under Set-up with one switch per tool. Switch a tool off and it leaves your menu, your home and your account, and you can switch it back on any time because nothing is deleted. Each section has All on and All off, and so does the page as a whole. If you open a link to a switched-off room, PT Manager shows a card naming it with a one-tap switch to bring it back. PT Manager is free with any FASTER course.

A big toolkit is easier to use when it shows only your tools

PT Manager covers a lot: bookings, clients, programmes, money, analysis, website and more. A trainer who runs classes may never open the programme tools, and a trainer who coaches online may never touch the till. My menu lets each trainer decide what shows.

Today's other post, from the Core and Pelvic Floor course, is about giving a client a say in their own sessions. My menu gives a trainer a say in their own software.

What the page does

My menu sits under Set-up. Every tool has one switch, listed in the same order as the menu itself, so the page reads like the thing it edits.

  • Switch a tool off and it leaves your menu, your home page and your account.
  • Switch it back on any time. Nothing is deleted.
  • Each section has All on and All off, and so does the top of the page.

You can only see tools that have been released to you, so the page never offers a switch for something that is not ready.

A link to a switched-off room does not dead-end

Suppose a client's message or an old bookmark points at a tool you switched off. PT Manager sends you to My menu with a card that names the room and carries its switch. One tap turns it back on and opens it. My menu itself has no switch, so the way back is always there.

Who it suits

A new trainer gets a calmer home page while learning the basics. An experienced trainer hides the rooms that belong to a different kind of business. Both can change their mind in a tap.
