Booking
Visitors book an appointment, a slot, days, a camp or a workshop, right on your page. Set up what can be booked under Bookings in the site menu.
Using it well
The Booking block only shows what can be booked; you set up offers, hours and rules under Bookings in the site menu. Start with Getting started with bookings. Use What can be booked here to show one offer per page (for example one page per treatment), or all of them. The pencil next to it opens that offer's settings in a new tab (with "All my offers" it opens your list of offers). In the builder the block is a preview; booking works on your published site.
What your visitors see
Booking goes step by step, with a small step indicator on top: first the day in a calendar (or the period or date for camps and events), then the times of that day, then their details (number of people, your questions, contact details), and finally the result: booked, with the payment instructions if you set them, or what went wrong with a button to go back. Every step has Back, and nothing they chose or typed is lost. Steps with nothing to choose are skipped: a single period or event date, or days without times.
Size and place
Under Look, Width keeps the block a comfortable column (Medium, 720 px, by default; also Narrow, Small or Full width) and Alignment puts it left, centred or right when it is narrower than the page. Show the time zone adds "Times are in Brussels time" (your time zone) under the times; leave it off when your visitors are local.
A coloured box
Under Box, pick a Box colour to put the whole booking in a box of that colour, with rounded corners. Texts and links switch to white or black, whichever reads best (or pick your own Text and link colour). Buttons and chosen days take the text colour, or a colour of your own, such as your brand's second colour. The input fields stay white with dark text, so they read well on any colour. Space inside the box sets how much room there is around the steps.
Adding it
Open your site in the builder, choose Add in the left panel and pick Booking (or search for it). Click the block in the preview to open its settings on the right.
