Displaying Custom Fields on the Booking Calendar

By default, the booking calendar shows basic information about the booking, such as the purpose and destination

.

You can

create and select individual custom fields to display

on the booking calendar.

How to Display Custom Fields on the Calendar

By default, the Application Setting to show custom field values on the booking calendar is disabled. It can be enabled by going to System Admin menu > Application Settings

> Calendar and finding the text "Bookings on the calendar should display values of custom fields". Set this Yes, scroll down and click the Save button.

Note this will now show every custom field on the calendar.

How To Display Only Certain Fields

Once the Application Setting is set to Yes (above), you can show or hide individual custom field values on the calendar.

From the System Admin menu, click Booking Form Custom Fields which is found under the System Data heading.

Locate the field you wish to hide, click Edit, tick or untick the box where it says "Display on Calendar?" and click the Save button.

• If you have enabled Bookings on the calendar should display values of custom fields after  v8.3.1 (March 2018) then by default all custom fields will be set to hidden. To show individual fields you will need to edit then tick the ones you want to show.
