Calendar & bookings
Offline message
When online booking is off, an offline message tells customers why and when you'll be back — e.g. "Closed for holidays, back on the 12th" — instead of leaving them staring at an empty calendar. It turns a closed door into a clear, reassuring note.
How to set it up
- 1
Turn online booking off
The offline message shows only while booking is paused.
- 2
Open the offline message field
In the booking settings, find the offline message box.
- 3
Write a short, dated note
State the reason and the return date so expectations are clear.
- 4
Save
Customers visiting your page now see the message in place of the booking button.
Good to know
- Always include a return date — it sets expectations.
- Keep it short and friendly.
- Remember to clear it when you reopen.
