Wix Bookings: Blocking Off Time in Your Calendar

In this article
  • Blocking off time in your calendar
  • FAQs
Taking time off or needing to manage your team's availability? Block off time in your Wix Bookings calendar for yourself or your staff member(s). You can also create repeating time blocks, making it easy to manage time off for events, vacations, or regular staff training. For instance, if you’re attending a conference and your team is unavailable for a weekly staff meeting, you can block off the same time for all staff and set it to repeat until your return.

Blocking off time in your calendar

  1. Go to Booking Calendar in your site's dashboard.
  2. Click Add or click the time slot you wish to block off on the calendar.
  3. Select Blocked time.
  4. Click the Staff drop-down and select the checkbox next to the staff member(s) whose time you want to block.
