Typically, updates to the order of your service menu are reflected instantly, but it may take up to 30 minutes. Restart Phorest if changes do not appear on your Appointments or Purchase screen right away.


Grouping Service Categories Together Online

Service Categories are grouped together based on their Online category setting to make sure that similar services are kept together in your online booking menu.

To view or change the Online category assigned to a Service Category, go to Manager > Categories > Service Categories, then click on the Service Category you want to edit.

Here, you can view and change the Online category setting. Click the drop-down option to select a new Online category and then click Save.

The groupings are based on the headers in the Online category dropdown menu.

They will appear automatically grouped together as below.

Note: Changing the online category for a service category may also result in a change in the wording in the staff selection dropdown menu ('Any Stylist', 'Any Therapist', 'Any Staff'). Click here for more information on how that wording is changed.


Service Category Order in Staff View

If you are linking clients directly to specific staff booking pages in Online Booking or have the Floating Book Now Widget installed on your website, it's important to note that your Service Categories will be listed alphabetically when viewing the Staff view and will not follow the Grouping rules listed above.

Services in the Staff view will appear in the order that you have arranged them.
