Automatically translate messages send through inbox
Airbnb does automatic translation but I was just trying to do as much of my messaging and tasks through Hostfully as I can instead of having to go back and forth! I’ve been just responding through Airbnb so it would automatically translate what I’m texting instead of having to go through Google translate

Ability to suggest automatic replies to common guest questions
If we had a bot in guidebooks or messaging we could have instant answers to:

Can I check out late?
Do you provide coffee?

Automatic retrying of failed messages whenever possible
Sometimes some messages failed to be sent due to server errors (Call failed 500, 429, 404). I had to go to Message Log > manually re-fired it. However, it will be better if the system automatically retries the failed messages for these types of errors.

Set fees globally in bulk
Many fees are the same for every property, or for large groups of properties. It's a huge pain to have to add every fee to each property individually. There should be an option to set defaults globally and then override them at the property level.
34 votesWe are planning to provide bulk edit capabilities for Fees and Policies, as we did for Main Property Settings. Once the feature is deployed, setting fees across your inventory (or a subset you select) will be done in a couple clicks.

Edit fees/taxes
Currently if a new channel is added, you have to delete a fee/tax and add it again as new to include the new chanel.
We should be able to edit this information as we do with any other content.
In addition, it would be nice to be able to apply globally fees/tax settings for new channels as they arise.
As it is now, every new channel we have to delete and read a tax and fee on EVERY listing.

Automatically cancel the reservation when payment fails
Currently when payment fails for insufficient funds the booking goes into our calendar and blocks the dates preventing anyone else from booking. In VRBO it looks like a valid reservation. It isn't obvious to the guests or to us that there is a problem with payment so the conversation with the guest continues as usual and check in details are provided. Until I see a vague email from Hostfully saying that a payment failed. It doesn't identify the reservation. Just that a payment failed. If I hadn't been checking my email I wouldn't know. Quite often the email gets lost…

Set parameters on Discount Code
It would be really helpful to be able to select a timeframe for the discount - ie. Stay 7 nights and receive % discount.
Also to be able to apply the discount to particular houses as not all our property owners like to offer discounts33 votes -
Configure agency split per owner per property
As a VRM I would like to have a different agency/owner split per property per owner. Right now, the same agency/owner split applies to all properties that belong to a single owner. Instead, I would like to have different splits per property per owner.

All all TIME variables to have option for AM/PM vs. Military time
I use [$LEADDEPARTURETIME$] in multiple automated triggers to remind guest of their upcoming check out time.
Normal time is 11:00am but we do allow for later at times.
When I use the variable, it just says "11:00" in military time and "13:00" for 1pm.
The issue is since most are 11:00am.. and it just shows 11:00, guest could push it and you said 11:00, we assumed 11:00pm!
I could hardcode "AM" in the text, but then when we allow for a late checkout in the afternoon, it would say ex: "13:00AM"... kinda odd.
If we had the AM/PM…32 votes -
Get a notification when an Airbnb guest needs to alter their reservation.
When a guest requests to alter their Airbnb stay, the notification only goes through Airbnb. I'm a co-host and have several other Airbnb accounts connected to my Hostfully account. When guests request an alteration, I don’t get any notification of that.
I would like for Hostfully to provide notification for me so I can approve/decline Airbnb guests for an altered stay.

Make more variables work for trigger "New Message in Inbox"
As a Property Manager, I would like to get as much information as possible about the SMS/Email notification upon receiving a new message. It would be better to know which guest [$GUESTNAME$] is sending the message, from which channel [$LEADCHANNEL$]/which property [$PROPERTYINTERNALNAME$].
At the moment, only these 2 variables work for trigger event “New Message in Inbox” because the message is thread-oriented. I want more variables to work with this event.
[$NEWMESSAGECONTENT$]
[$INBOXTHREADURL$]

Refunds for Cancelled Airbnb bookings outside of free cancellation periods are not captured at all
Currently, when an Airbnb guest cancels their stay outside of their free cancellation period (ours is Firm), the reservation is not updated with the correct payout information. We need to capture the cancelled bookings earnings in our reports.
We tried to used the filter in reports to not screen the Cancelled Lead status. This was not a fix because in doing this the total cost of the reservation is displayed rather than the actual payout after the cancelation policy was applied, so, the total cost of the cancelled booking is included in the earnings report, obviously not good.

Make Rate Multiplier available at Property Level
I would like to be able to adjust the pricing on a booking channel for each property. So, on Airbnb, property A gets -10% property B gets 0%
And on hostfully, property A gets 0% and property B gets +10%Right now, the rate multiplier is only available at the channel level.

Remove the "Sign Up For A Free Hostfully Account Here" from the direct reservation confirmation
big issue with the guests because whenever they make a direct reservation, the confirmation shows in big letters "Sign Up For A Free Hostfully Account Here".
This confuses the guests and they have to clarify each time they don't actually need to register for any account since they are only booking a reservation.27 votes -
Delete Owner Invitations from the Owners list page
There is no delete function available now. Owners main page needs more functions from that page. Like listing all Owner names from there!
