This article shows you how to set up, design and publish your free program website, and choose what families fill in to ask to join.

Before you start

  • You are a director. Your website is included on every plan and stays hidden until you publish it.

Set up and publish

  1. Go to Settings → Pages & design. The Overview tab opens.
  2. Under Your website address, type the end of your address (learningsense.org/c/your-name).
  3. Set New families to Accepting new families, Waitlist only or Not accepting new families.
  4. Pick a Main button: Request to join, Request a tour or Ask about joining.
  5. Turn on Published, click Save changes, then View website to see it. Use Copy to share the address.

Write your pages

  1. Open the Pages & sections tab. Fill in About, Days and hours, Fees, Questions and Links.
  2. Under Sections, turn sections on or off and set their order.
  3. Open the Design tab to add a logo or cover photo (under 5 MB) and pick a color.

Set the join form and policies

  1. Go to Settings → Join form & policies.
  2. On Join form, choose what to ask About each child and About the family, and add Your questions.
  3. On Policies & documents, write a policy or upload a PDF (under 5 MB). Check Show on website and, if needed, Must agree to join.
  4. Add a note under Reply to families and click Save.

What happens next

  • Your live classes, fees and dates come from your semesters and classes, so the site stays current.
  • Requests to join land in Join requests. Approving one sends the family an invite.
  • Unless New families is set to Not accepting new families, the page also shows a Request a tour button. Tour requests land in Join requests with a Tour tag. Ask about joining opens a short question form that emails you.
  • Your website never shows children's information. Don't add children's names or photos.

Common problems

  • No join requests coming in? Check that the site is Published and New families isn't set to Not accepting new families.
  • Image won't upload? Use one under 5 MB.
  • Policy families already agreed to can't be deleted? Turn off Show and Must agree instead.
  • Add families: invite, signup link, add by hand, approve
  • Create a semester, session or term
  • Data, privacy and COPPA
