We are renting some houses on a weekly basis and they can only be rented 7, 14, 21 days etc. How can I set this up? I have setup a minimum of 7 days, but then if someone enters 8 days then it will show that it is also available for 8 days and it must be a full extra week 7, 14 etc.

    Hi hifi,

    Are these these weekly rentals set up from a specific day of the week? (ie: all weekly rentals starting/ending on Saturday?)  If that is the case, I would probably set up specific date events that are week long events, using specific dates (for example January 7 - 14), as well as create a rule that all house rentals must start on Saturday

    have a look at some screenshots and see if this is what you're looking for:

    Hope that helps,

    Would I have to setup date events for the whole year?
    I cannot get it to show without quantity as you show in the screen shots and it does not show in the availability calender.

    Hi hifi,

    Yes, I'm suggesting that you would set up date events like I suggested for the whole year (52 events).  As for viewing options on parameters, always check to see the parameters under your global configuration ( /manage/setup/config/ ) and also category.  In this case, I checked hide on both the booking unit and qty.

    Thanks,

    Chris
