Define Meeting Places in Yoplanning.pro

Introduction to the Feature

The meeting point definition feature in Yoplanning.pro allows users to specify precise locations for planned activities or sessions. This system is integrated with Google Maps, providing increased accuracy and ease of use. You can define a default location for your products, which can then be modified at the session level if necessary. Note: you also have a free complementary field to give more precise information to your customers about the exact location of your meeting point such as a parking lot or an easily recognizable point.

Steps to Set a Meeting Place

  1. Access to the Feature: Log in to your Yoplanning.pro account. On the dashboard, select the 'Administration' section, then click on 'Configuration' and choose 'Locations'.

  2. Adding a New Location: In the 'Locations' section, click on the option to add a new meeting location.

  3. Using Google Maps for Location:

    • Enter the desired address in the search bar. Google Maps will display potential matches.

    • If the exact address is not found or you need to specify a location outside of a standard address (such as a park or outdoor area), use the Google Maps pointing feature.

    • To do this, click and hold the cursor on the exact location you want on the map until a marker appears. You can adjust the position of the marker by dragging it to the exact location you want.

  4. Saving the Location: Once the location is selected, give it a descriptive name and save the information.

Tips for Use and Best Practices

  • Location Accuracy: Make sure to choose specific meeting locations to make it easier to understand and accessible for your clients and staff.

  • Descriptive Name: Use descriptive names for locations to avoid confusion (e.g., "Central Park - North Entrance").

  • Regular Update: Check and update meeting locations regularly to reflect any changes in address or access conditions.

Handling Common Errors and Problems

  • Google Maps Location Issue: If the exact location cannot be determined via an address, use the manual pointing feature on the map.

  • Warning wrong address: Make sure that the changes made when you point to a specific location in the countryside, the address memorized by Google is indeed a GPS point (like: 2V5R+9J La Bresse, France) Otherwise Google tends to hang on to the closest known address, zoom in more if necessary to get the right location.

By following these steps and tips, you will be able to efficiently manage and define meeting places in Yoplanning.pro, ensuring optimal organization and planning for your activities.
