The Availability board
One board across every hunt type, showing exactly which days a guide can actually take — the same read your public booking page uses.
The Availability board answers one question at a glance: for any hunt type and any day, can you actually take a hunter? It reads the same supply signals — season capacity, guide load, request-only settings — that gate your public booking page, so what you see here is what a hunter sees when they try to book.
The four states
- Open — every signal is positive. Book it.
- Request — bookable, but as an inquiry rather than an instant confirmation (request-only settings, or thin signal).
- Full — the season or a capacity limit is sold out.
- Closed — no active season covers that day.
When signals are missing or ambiguous, the board is deliberately conservative — it degrades toward Request rather than showing Open. It can undersell a day it isn't sure about; it will never oversell one.
What's on the board
- A per-guide load grid, so you can see who's already booked before you commit another hunt to them.
- A bookings-in-view panel — the active bookings in your current window, grouped by hunting party.
The board shows up to 5 hunt types at once. If you run more, switch between views rather than trying to see all of them together.
Why the public page never oversells
Your public booking widget disables exactly the days the booking gate would refuse — the same check runs again, a second time, the instant someone submits with instant deposit. A hunter can't complete a deposit on a day that turns out to be unstaffed; the charge never happens.
The Availability board is on the Solo, Pro, Business, and Elite plans, and is currently in Beta.
