Hi,
I would like to show a Calendar with possible travel dates at the presentation page of each categorie / room type
Of course it would be good if a costumer clicks on a certain date-- the booking tool would open.
....
One reason for that would be:
IF
for some reason the rates or min. stay or else, would prevent that a certain room type/categorie to be shown
at least the costumer would see at the presentation page of that room type
that there IS an availability and a inquiry....if online booking is not possible, can be done....

You can show an availability calendar for each room on the booking page and set it to allow enquiries.
This way if a booking cannot be made because of a restriction etc. the guest can see the room is available and will be presented with an enquiry form.

Ok thanks
whats the url ext. for that?
like:
?roomid=57682
would show the search for a certain id

is it possible to choose different Booking Page Layout depending on the situation?
like:
?roomid=57682&pagelayout=6

(I know that code would do it, but if there is one...)

Hi,
I was on the right track I guess...

The code should be like

Code: Select all

https://www.beds24.com/choosen-link-for-bookingpage.php?propid=xxxxx&roomid=57682&layout=4
And of course... set one layout to fit my needs...
It is wise (I guess... to set the offers to only one offer unless more calendars show up...)

Thanks
I start adjusting ... :-)

One "thing" I could not find...
See Screenshot:

... There is a section under the calendar - Like: Not available for this selection
I guess thats from an offer not available for a choosen period and room type...?

If you really want to hide that, it should be possible using custom CSS on the booking page.

in order not to change the overall viewing..

... is it possible to "only" submit one class with the url?
like:

Code: Select all

https://www.beds24.com/booking.php?propid=24166&roomid=57682&layout=1&lang=de&numadult=4&hideoffer=1,2,3&class=.allert,display:none
I know that not working, but is there a code example to do such a call?
:shock:

Other then a solution like within url, I could trigger that with an external css file ... specially made for a page like we are talking about.
.... and If with external css - that css file MUST be hostet at a https Server... am I right?

You can include CSS by including a link to an external CSS file in the url with the cssfile parameter. see Booking Page Parameters at this link
