Not sure if this option is available yet, but in my condo, the pool code changes monthly. It would be nice to have a way for OR update a custom field depending on the month.
Hi Russ, have you tried customizing the Website override of your property description to include your floor plans as inline images?
Hi Caleb,
Thanks for that info. The problem is for multiple homes on a hosted site, this would mean multiple floor plans in the same PDF, or 4 different menus just for floor plans. The floor plans would also be hidden in a menu, but some guests would probably not know where it is since it isn't listed on each property page. For those reasons, having the floor plan tied to each property is preferable. A simple link to the file uploaded above would be nice for each property.
Hello,
You have the ability to upload your floor plans as PDFs within your Account > Files page. This would allow you to grab the public URL for said file, and drop it into a menu on your Hosted Website.
After you've uploaded the file and grabbed the public URL, you'll go to Settings > Hosted Website > (select website name) > click +Create Menu in the Menu & Pages tab. The next screen will allow you to enter your Menu Display Text as you'd like it to appear in your website header, and just below that you'll see the Destination URL. That is where you'll drop the public URL from your Files.
I didn’t realize that the taxes were included. Actually, my preference would be to remove them from the standard report, with the option being to add them.
Hmm... what if you click-and-hold on the location where a mouse-over would trigger the hover?
Hi, I'd rather not click or hover, that's the extra step I'd like to avoid, it's so when you glance at the calendar you'll know exactly where each guest booked from without having to click or hover on each one, it would make my life easier, since I don't plan on API with VRBO any time soon, plus It's for those that handle things differently with each booking platform.
This way if you print screen your calendar it will also show there.

At present there is not. However, we are currently considering a major redesign of this entire process, which would address your concern in a variety of ways. No ETA on that though.
Thanks for the information. It seems like too much information for them to enter during the booking process, and I feel they will move on and not complete the booking. Is there a way to request the information later, to pre-fill a form like the one I have attached, or to add these fields to be filled/captured as part of the legal agreement signing process, separate from the booking process?
I have guests fill out all that info on my legal agreement. Add custom fields then go to legal agreement and insert them. Preview it to make sure it's right. Easy enough. Just set up the custom fields right. Make them "required" and a "booking" type for it to show on legal agreement.
Yes, no indication that they plan to add it in the future either.
Yes, using custom fields:

With the current legal agreement format, is there a way to allow guests to enter additional information, such as additional guests names and phone numbers, vehicle information etc. and submit it back electronically, or is the only information returned the electronic signature?
Any updates on this? We have a couple different Resorts where this could be useful, and also several condos in the same complex. Pool closure, announcements about activities, icy conditions, thunderstorm or tornado warnings, etc.
Agree, I am constantly searching for a bank deposit amount to tie back to a transaction, but the deposit amount does not seem to be searchable... even though "payments" shows as searchable, results don't populate.
Is this still an unsupported feature via api for 2023?
If you need any smaller guys for beta, would love to be included! I own, designed and manage two myself.

Wheelhouse is officially integrating with OwnerRez! If you'd like to be on the list of early adopters and be notified by Wheelhouse when this becomes available to you, fill out the Google Form below:
Could you allow or implement a toggle to search for dollar amounts in transactions from the search field? This may just be a "me" problem but it would help so much with some of my reconciliation bookkeeping. Or I could use a suggestion on how to better be able to find charges from Lynnbrooke/Cardpointe corresponding to chargebacks and things of that nature. Thanks.
Would be extremely helpful!
This would be great. I have wanted this feature for awhile.
I agree. This would be really helpful.
I just did this using IFTTT. It was super easy; I have an Ecobee thermostadt.
I set up a template and a trigger in OR that sends an email to IFTTT, based on certain conditions (summer season and no one stayed in the place the night before).
This email triggers IFTTT to turn the Ecobee thermostadt to a certain temperature and Hold until the next scheduled transition.
This way, I can set the AC to kick on a few hours prior to a guest's arrival, so they don't arrive to a hot place.
I had never heard of IFTTT before. Can you explain more about how you send an email to IFTTT? I would love to do this at multiple properties with the thermostat!
Also, I would like to put in my vote for OR to work with ecobee and nest!
I'm not seeing affirm in the options for Stripe. Please advise.
I would appreciate the ability to filter out pass through occupancy taxes on the Bookings Report. Currently the Bookings Report includes all of the pass through taxes that we have to collect and submit. I love the line chart for a quick visual of my revenue, but it is not accurate because it includes any pass through occupancy taxes I collect. I would love to be able to filter out the pass through taxes so the Bookings Report will show my true revenue.
That would be so helpful! When I am looking at it on my phone I have to actually click on the booking because I can't hover on the phone.
Duplicate of another feature request - merging into the other request.

This would be a great feature. Just voted.
Hi there! First and foremost, I love the platform as a whole and find the website integrations to be strong.
When I incorporated the widgets, plugins and shortcodes into our site, my goal was to leverage them as much as possible so that as we make changes in OwnerRez, they dynamically pull into our site vs having to make changes in two places.
In many cases, everything works well, but there are a few improvements that could be made to the widgets, but the one that stuck out the most was the Amenities widget. As we all know, platforms like Airbnb have an overwhelming number of "amenities" they ask about that are relevant as people are searching with filters on the site, but that are not necessarily important for someone that has come to your site directly. In addition, sites like Airbnb group amenities into categories that they feel are relevant on their end, but may not be the right way to display them on an independent website.
When using the widget, I then had a massive list of poorly organized stuff that was not able to be well-stylized for the site. The only way I found to group things as I wanted in a moderately well-stylized manner was to hardcode my amenities into my site manually. See example here for how we handled. A potentially "simple" work around would be to enable users to select via checkbox which amenities they wanted to display in the widget and which to leave off. This way, in theory, we'd be able to pop in multiple amenities widgets on a single page grouped however we want them to be and enable for more customization aesthetically.
Would love to hear if something like this is in the works or if there are other possible workarounds.
Many thanks!
