If you have a property on VRBO, but instant booking is not on, it will not be ported over to Expedia from VRBO. Instant Booking on VRBO is a mandatory requirement for any VRBO property to appear …

General Chat » Anyone else having bookings down compared to last year?

Yes. Around July 1st of 2023 was like a light switch. Bookings just started drying up everywhere. Search AirBnBust online and you will see lots of news articles about it. Inflation and high inter…

Feature Requests » Add Inquiry Actions to the OwnerRez Zapier Integration to Accept Inquiries from ANY Source (and LOTS more!).

I receive a large number of inquires from a site via email that OwnerRez does not recognize or convert into inquires when the email arrives, despite the fact that the emails are specifically sent to …

General Help and Questions » OPTIONAL Surcharges automatically included with AirBnB Nightly Rate? NO!

I just realized as I was working through the tedious AirBnB integration that a SEASONAL OPTIONAL ITEM (NOT a SURCHARGE, but OwnerRez doesn't distinguish between the two - which is a HUGE failure for …

Feature Requests » Select which photos are sent to the difference channels and our own website.

Sorry Ken, but I disagree with your contention about photos being swapped in and out of the active set being inherent to which ones get sent to a channel. In a global perspective it may be, and I und…

Feature Requests » Select which photos are sent to the difference channels and our own website.

I realize we're on the wrong thread for this part of the discussion, but the ability to swap photos in and out of the active set is ALSO a different feature than being able to have it done automatica…

Feature Requests » Select which photos are sent to the difference channels and our own website.

This is NOT the same feature request. Being able to send different photos to different channels (this thread) is a different facility than being able to upload additional photos and have the extr…

General Help and Questions » is this pricing correct?

I have the same problem.  I added pricing for 2026, and EIGHT new surcharges were mysteriously created with a 2026 label on them, and associated with new seasons during the 2026 year.  I was able to …

For those of us that don't have an OR Hosted Website, it would be really great to be able to view a 'live' preview of the landing page using a link on the GVR Integration page. by Robert P (/forums/…

Feature Requests » Custom Quotes

I'm confused by the request. Once a quote is created, and before it is sent, you can click on the [Charges] button and then edit them. You can add line items, or discounts or surcharges, or chang…

Feature Requests » A different email address for "inquiry is created" system alert

Perhaps a slightly different take on this, but what I really need is a separate email address specifically for inquiries, that is separate from my account email. And I'm not sure if this exists or no…

Feature Requests » Add arbitrary notes to any calendar day

This really doesn't help when none of this shows in the calendar we are viewing when we are creating quotes!!!!! I need to see this stuff when I'm preparing quotes for guests. I also need to see …

Feature Requests » Add arbitrary notes to any calendar day

This brings up a good point. It would be ideal if calendar notations could be marked so that they are public (anyone can see them) or private (only we do).

Well... I gave it a good shot. At least I have a workable solution for my situation going forward. I wish you lots of luck with yours and hopefully a new feature will come out to provide what you nee…

Feature Requests » Repeat Guests - Custom message triggers

Could you not add to the trigger the requirement that the guest's departure date is more than two weeks previous? Only a previously stayed guest would have a departure date like that. A new one, or f…

Feature Requests » Repeat Guests - Custom message triggers

So then when a guest books as a repeat, add a tag for that to their record. And have all of your templates duplicated as necessary to send out the 'repeat guest' version of your emails when the tag i…

Feature Requests » Repeat Guests - Custom message triggers

There was also a feature request about having tags automatically assigned when a booking is created, so this could solve the issue you are raising. But you did bring it up, which leaves me confus…

Feature Requests » Repeat Guests - Custom message triggers

Hi Alece, Could you just not setup a tag for prior guests and assign it to every guest after their departure (after all, once a guest has stayed with you, any contact they have with you makes the…

Feature Requests » Add arbitrary notes to any calendar day

I REALLY need this feature, or a different take on it. It would be really great if our rate seasons could show on the calendar. For example, I need to see when Easter is each year on the Cale…
