Look Busy Enhancement – Slot Randomization

/in

Enhancing Availability with the "Look Busy" Feature

The "Look Busy" feature helps users appear more in demand by hiding a percentage of available slots on the booking widget, creating a sense of urgency for bookers.

Increased Realism and Variety

Previously, the slots that were hidden remained the same throughout the week. With this new enhancement, the hidden slots are now randomised across different days of the week, making your availability appear more realistic and varied.

How It Works

  • When a booker opens the widget, they will see a randomised set of slots.
  • If the page is refreshed without booking, the same set of slots will remain visible.
  • Once a booking is made, the widget will refresh, and a new random set of available slots will be displayed.

Applicable Calendars

  • Event Calendar
  • Round Robin Calendar
  • Collective Calendar
  • Service Calendar

The "Look Busy" feature is currently not applicable for class bookings and service menus.

  1. Go to Calendar Settings and select the desired calendar.
  2. Navigate to the Availability tab.
  3. Locate the Look Busy option.
  4. Turn it on and enter the percentage of slots you want to hide.
  5. Click Save.
