Pause new online bookings

Pause new online bookings while keeping existing appointments in the calendar.

Before you start

Decide whether you need a general pause or only a particular date closure. Use date availability for a single day.

  1. Open booking rules

    Go to Settings → Edit booking rules.

  2. Pause and save

    Select Pause new online bookings, then Save booking rules.

  3. Check the client view

    Open your booking page and confirm new booking is paused. Review existing appointments and contact any affected clients separately.

  4. Resume when ready

    When ready, return to Publishing and sharing, resume booking and check the client page.

What you should see

New booking availability reflects the pause while existing appointments remain on the calendar.

If you need help

Existing appointments are still present

That is expected. A pause is not a cancellation or a notification to existing clients.

There are still no times after resuming

Contact the client directly if their appointment needs to change. Pausing affects new bookings only.
