How to block out dates manually?

Hi @barneystinsonawesome,
Thanks for your question. You may block the accommodations via Dashboard > Bookings > Booking Rules > Block Accommodation. There you may restrict check-in/ check-out and stay in for certain dates and add comment to know the reason of the block.
If you upgrade to Pro version you will be able top add bookings from back-end as an admin.

Hi there,

Thanks for your help, your solution was perfect!

Instead of starting a new topic, I’ve posted here as it is to do with the same feature.

I can now block out certain dates which is great, and at the moment the blocked out dates are shown using a strikethrough through the dates which are unavailable.

Is it possible to have a solid block of colour (red for example) on the blocked out dates instead of a strikethrough?

Hi @barneystinsonawesome,
It is possible to inspect the needed class and apply custom CSS to change background and text colors. I might help you if you provide a link to page with availability calendar where the dates are blocked by the rule. Thanks.

Hi there,

Thanks for getting back to me ??

You can see an example of this on this page here:

And if you go to July 2020, you will see the dates which are blocked out. So ideally blocked out dates like these would still have a strikethrough, but the squares (the background to the squares) would be a solid red block?

Hopefully that makes sense!

Hi @barneystinsonawesome,
Thanks, try applying the style below:

.mphb-date-cell.mphb-not-available-date.mphb-not-stay-in-date{
  background-color:#db0000 !important;
  border:1px solid #fff;
  color:#fff !important;
}

Thanks, would I put that in the Additional CSS section of the theme or does it need to go into Hotel Booking Lite somewhere?

@barneystinsonawesome
Yes, you need to place it to Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS. I see you use Palmeria theme so I’d highly appreciate if you review it https://www.ads-software.com/support/theme/palmeria/reviews/

Hi there, many thanks!

If you look at this property:

https://pollyvillasmoraira.com/welcome/accommodation/casa-de-la-rosas/

You will see that February & March 2020 look the same as before, but it does seem to work for the months of June & July 2020?

Do you have any idea why it works for some months, but not others?

Hi
Please replace that style with one below:

.mphb-date-cell.mphb-not-available-date {
background-color: #db0000 !important;
border: 1px solid #fff;
color: #fff !important;
}
