Auto response to Airbnb/VRBO inquiries

So glad to see VRBO messaging is now included in OR! I've been using Hospitable just for the messaging features. I was ready to close my Hospitable account (and have one less payment), but it seems OR doesn't have the option to have an automatic set response for inquires through Airbnb/VRBO. Airbnb tracks initial response time, so I don't want to fall in the algorithm if something comes in overnight and I don't see it until morning - we do have instant book on, but accept pets case by case so we get a lot of questions about that before people book. Is this a feature that can be added?

Yep. This is on the roadmap. I can't give any idea of schedule yet, as dev time lines can change.

Note that, to the best of our understanding, Airbnb (and Vrbo) do not track your initial response time if you are API-connected to a channel manager, because they assume that the channel manager is taking care of that.  So, this concern is moot.
