Showing more advanced options
Back to topIf you are ready for some more advanced options, then simply click on Show more options to reveal additional settings.
The page expands to display Background Color, End Date, Tracking ID, System Language, and Customer Language settings.
Choosing a background colour
Back to topJust like the Font Color above, you can also select a colour for the background of your booking portal.
The default colour is white (#ffffff), but if you are feeling adventurous, you can experiment with a wide range of colours.
Specifying the end date
Back to topThe End Date setting allows you to specify the date selected by default as the end date on the Booking Page. This is most commonly used in combination with the (start) Date, to create a booking span.
For example, if you choose June 1st as the start Date and June 10th as the End Date, then those dates are selected by default within the calendar. This creates a booking span of 10 days. Customers can select a different start or end date, but the system continues to enforce that 10-day span.
If you don't specify a start date, then the system uses today as the start date.

This setting does not configure the last day a Customer is able to book! In most cases, we do not recommend setting an End Date. It is best to configure booking date restrictions at the item or product level: |
Adding a tracking ID
Back to topA Tracking ID is simply a code that can be added to the Drupal plugin for future reference. The ID code shows on your invoices so you know where the booking came from specifically. This is great for tracking advertising campaigns!

Selecting your system language
Back to topDo you want to display the Drupal plugin in a specific language? Simply choose the language from the list of available options within the System Language dropdown menu.
Should you use Customer languages, an additional Customer Language dropdown menu displays. From here, you choose which of your multiple Customer languages is selected by default on the Booking Page.
