Booking Widget to Open First Available Date

What’s New?

Previously, the system automatically searched for available slots for the next 3 months. If no slot was found within that timeframe, bookers would then have the option to search for slots in the next 3 months. Now, when only date-specific hours are configured for a calendar (without weekly working hours), the widget will automatically open the first available date—no matter how far in the future that may be.

This enhancement is particularly useful for businesses hosting future events and wanting to accept bookings in advance. Bookers no longer have to manually search for the next available slot; the widget will automatically show it.

Example:

For a New Year’s Eve event on December 31st, bookings can be taken immediately, and the widget will open directly to that date, ensuring a seamless booking process.

How to Use?

  1. Navigate to Calendar Settings > Choose your Calendar > Availability Tab.
  2. Configure Date-Specific Hours and ensure that no Weekly Working Hours are set for this feature to work.
