The Next Availability widget helps streamline the booking process for your clients. With this widget, you can display the next available time slot for a specific service directly on your website. Clients can then book appointments without having to search through a calendar or contact you directly.

Important:
Currently, the Next Availability widget is not available in the Wix Harmony Editor.

Step 1 | Add the Next Availability widget to your site

The Next Availability widget allows you to display any of your most in-demand services on any page on your site. 
  1. Go to your editor.
  2. Click Add Elements  on the left side of the editor.
  3. Click Bookings.
  4. Click Next Availability.
  5. Drag the widget onto your page.

Step 2 | Choose which service to display

Now choose which service you want to display in the widget and at what location. You can add other Next Availability widgets, with different services, on various pages on your site. 
Tips:
  • You can add as many widgets as you like to your pages. For example, you can add a widget for each of your services on different pages of your site. 
  • To change the image you display for your service on the Next Availability widget, update the image on the relevant service page in Booking Services in your site's dashboard.

To choose which service to display:

  1. Click the Next Availability widget in your editor.
  2. Click Settings.

Step 3 | Design the text that appears on the widget

You can now design the text that appears throughout the Next Availability widget. This is a great way to make the widget fit your style and branding. Click on any piece of text in the widget to edit the design.

To design the text that appears on the widget:

  1. Click the Next Availability widget in your editor.
  2. Click any piece of text to customize the design. 
  3. Click Design Text
  4. Use the available options to adjust the style, fonts, font size, formatting and more.
