At present, no - our iCal calendar feeds don't include the extra blocked-off day.

However, it would be possible to add that as an option for our custom iCal calendar feeds, so you could create an iCal that did include them and use that instead.

I've moved this thread into the Feature Requests forum.

If this is implemented make it optional. We don't need ID's so I don't want to require my guests to upload one.

Due to COVID-19, I block 1 day between all bookings. This works fine for Airbnb, VRBO, and Houfy API integrations. For my single ical OTA listing, Florida Rental By Owners, it doesn't show those separation dates at all. Is there a fix for this?

It would save a lot of key-strokes if OR would prefill the city and state using zipcode. This would also require changing the zipcode field location and tab order on the address section.

@staff, Chris, etal
I just realized this feature was requested already by Donna M in November. So if you want to merge this request and votes, with the other one to clean up the list, I'm totally ok with that.

Could the country of the guest be made available in triggers?
This would then enable many multilingual possibilities.

Thanks for your reply! On my previous website host I did a lot of online advertising to try to capture real estate investors. I just need a contact form so I can call them back and talk about that, not necessarily want them booking anything or adding them to mailing lists (not saying it's a bad idea, just one I haven't seriously considered yet)

Isn't option 2 already possible with the Booked on and then set the date to on or after and then a second criteria on and on or before. That gets you a valid date range. You can add many criteria with similar options.

Doesn't the Book Now / Enquiry widget do what you want?
Alternatively use one of the many 3rd party form plugins and push the names into a mailchimp or other mass email marketing tool.

Hi! I've been unsuccessfully trying to add a contact form to new sites I add so that people can sign up or message me, but I haven't been able to. Usually on other sites it's just a button we can click to add it.

Anyone can help?

Yes, I would like the ability to add an expiration date to a discount code as well as the ability to set how many times a discount code can be used. I want to offer repeat guests a discount without worrying that they will give the discount code to all of their friends and family.

We have long term stays often and would really love the automatic option to add a number of days at the end of a reservation. For instance 30 days-add on day between bookings. 60 days add 2 between bookings etc.

I would like to see the automatic text in the quote changed from the (to me) confusing
"3 nights (5 February - 7 February, departing 8 February)"
to
"3 nights (check in 5 February, check out 8 February)"
Or at least grant the option to change the way it reads?
Thank you!

That's only in the Book Now/Inquiry widget settings - maybe you were looking at the wrong widget type? Otherwise, please write in to the Helpdesk and we'll take a look.

I do not have a box in my widget to check to simplify Charge details and I want that. How do I get that on mine?

Yes, But a day of week trigger could be used for many things.

Yes, we're aware of this limitation, and are working with Vrbo to develop a way to generate custom quotes that works with their API. This is a bigger task than you might suppose and requires work at both ends, so may take a bit longer, but is very much on the roadmap.

Not all property fields are used the same way by all the channels. You may find a way to accomplish what you want via this table:

is this a notice sent to the guest?

I realize we can edit the content in blue at the top of each page, but I would like the ability to also edit some of the other content. Some guests, who are paying with Zelle, Venmo, or check find it confusing when #3 of the "What to Pay" section of the form mentions "a Security Deposit will be due x# of days prior to arrival", because I include the security deposit as a line item on the booking total for guests that are paying with those methods. So technically for them it's due now, and not 2 days prior to arrival.

I am currently unable to discount a quote that comes from the VRBO platform. This would be a nice feature since the API department at VRBO does not work on weekends which is when most of my requests come in.

I have VRBO API and exactly what I fill out in my property description in OR gets published to VRBO. However I want more details (ex "see my other VRBO listing #...) to be in the VRBO description, but not on my website that is hosted by OR. I can't simply go into VRBO and edit just the description there because once I have the API in place it does not allow it, I can only edit in OR which gets pushed to VRBO but also my website. Can we implement a way to separate these?

I would like the ability to have the guests initial certain items in the rental agreement. I especially am interested in having an accept decline on travel insurance.

Adding tag visibility when hovering over a booking on the calendar would be *enormously* helpful. Right now, when hovering over a booking we see some crucial details... I would love the ability to also see any tags that exist on that booking!

The current QB integration is not compatible with how I keep my books.

As is common with real estate, I have multiple entities and properties all tracked in a single QBO subscription. To get around the 40 class restriction on the plus subscription, instead of using classes to track my properties, I use customers. I use classes instead to track the "type" (flip, rental, str, etc) so I can get an overview report of flips across multiple businesses/locations.

Each property is a customer and then I can run P&L or BS by customer to see the property level detail.

The problem with the current QB integration is that a customer is created for every guest/booking. Since I need to track the income on a property level basis, I need to do a JE to move the income from the "guest" customer to the "property" customer.

It would be great if there was an option to "sync to a single customer" for each individual property. Similar to how you can set a class for each property.

In the past I've explained to our guests the fact that VRBO won't refund their service fee unless we refund their payment in full and have offered them the option to make an outside payment to me for the cancellation fee (through my PayPal account). If they do, then I initiate the full refund for the cancellation so that VRBO will also refund their service fee.

I record the cancellation fee in the charges and the payment for the cancellation fee as a payment in transactions.

Any update on this? I see lots of post from 2019, however, didn't know if it happened in 2020.

Add functionality to select which picture go to each platform. Each platform has a different picture limit. Also ability to set different default profile pictures by channel or listing.

I was trying to add a simple "Contact us" form, but am not given the option.
Sad.
