General Help and Questions » Booking widget quirk?

Yep, it was updating the date in the textbox but not the picker. It's always updated the check out date to the next day, but the bug kept the picker dropdown from changing months. Looks like that is…

Excellent! We're still contemplating the separate housekeeping management module, but we also don't want to get over complicated on the modules. I've seen sites where every last thing is a separate …

Blog » Gallimaufry of July and August enhancements

We got great feedback on the Gallimaufry post from June, so I figured it should become a recurring series. We do announcement posts for the larger features, but there are so many small ones that ca…

There's been some debate on this internally. Portal access is a pretty big ball of features, and something we'll be adding to over time with scheduling for cleaning, maintenance, etc. The way a lot o…
