Change how booking widget displays unavailable dates from availability settings. (not booked dates)
We do not allow Saturday check ins and we are trying to use the booking widget - However, it looks like our Saturdays are blocked off of our calendar, which will be a deterrent to guests from even trying to book.
It’s not about the ability to block certain days, but on how it’s displayed on the booking widget to avoid the misconception that the days are “booked” already.
For example. on Airbnb booking widget UI,
- Strikestrough days=booked,
- Greyed out= unavailable from host,
- Bold black= available
In Hostfully widget, all unavailable dates are greyed out, regardless of the reasons (booked, or availability settings) which can confuse potential bookers to quit booking, instead of trying to just avoid the restricted dates for checkin / checkout.
