Help centre/Scheduling

Change opening hours

Your opening hours determine what customers see in the booking widget. You set them once and then adjust them per day or per date.

Where to find your opening hours

Go to Salon and choose Opening hours. On the Opening hours tab you see a schedule from Monday to Sunday with a start and end time for each day.

Closed for a whole day? Switch the toggle off. That day then disappears from the booking widget straight away.

Adjusting a day

Click the time you want to change, choose a new time and click Save opening hours. You set the hours per staff member under Salon > Staff, Work schedule tab.

Changes take effect immediately. Appointments that are already booked stay in place, even if they fall outside your new hours.

Adding breaks

On the Fixed breaks tab, switch on Use fixed breaks and add a break with Add break, for example from 12:30 to 13:00. A fixed break applies every day to the whole salon; nothing can be booked during it.

Would you rather have some breathing room between appointments? Then use Buffer after (min) on the service instead of a break.

Holiday or a different day

On the Public holidays tab, Dutch public holidays are automatically set to closed, and with Add closing day you close a day yourself. For a holiday or a training day, use Calendar > Absence > Block time.

Customers cannot book online during that period. Your weekly schedule stays as it is.
