Update minimum stays across calendar when updated on the property page
Change the minimum stay settings on the property so that when this is updated, the calendar gets automatically updated to these new minimums for the future. The one condition should be that any manually set minimums that are greater than the new minimum stay setting should not be updated, but otherwise they should be.
I've had a couple situations where I updated the minimum stay on a property from 2 nights to 3 nights, but we still had 2 night bookings come in because I hadn't manually gone into the calendar and updated the minimum stays for future dates.

Yes! I had set my calendar to 30 day minimums because I got a monthly guest over the summer in the desert. And then they announced the headliners for Coachella and I immediately got a four day booking, which was OK even though I’ve let my permit lapse because I’m only doing monthly. Hopefully I’ll squeak through till I get my permit renewed. But then a two day booking came in for the other Coachella week which is a disaster because those two weekends are the highest grossing bookings for the entire year. Airbnb refused to cancel it because they said my calendar was set to two day minimums so I was very surprised to learn because I didn’t know you could set overrides in the Hostfully calendar and I have never set any settings in the Hostfully calendar so they were must’ve been imported - even though I would never have had a 2 day minimum for that month. Luckily, I was able to convince the guest to cancel because I said that I had no permit and if the city found out they would cancel it and ask them to leave. So they canceled on their own thank goodness.
