I know this sounds crazy, but there has never been a way for our Administators to delete Entries (properties, caravan parks etc.) in our Admin Console.

Well, now you can.

The reason it has taken us so long to implement this feature is that there are many implications of deleting something.  For example, although you might have stopped managing a holiday property and no longer wish to see it when you log into the Admin Console, you do not want to lose historic bookings that were made to that property.

As of today, balance payments will now show up on your Dashboard timeline in the Admin Console.

This means you are more likely to get that reassuring feeling that your guest has paid you!

From 1st February 2013 we will no longer support the use of Internet Explorer 8 within our Admin Console.  

This will effect less than 2% of our users.

We will also stop checking client websites in IE8 as a matter of course.

Why can't we support it forever? 

Technologies and browsers move on, and we want to take adantage of them.

IE8 has limited support for HTML 5 and other web technologies that we want to use and give our users the best possible experience.

Useful:

• Google no longer supporting IE 8

Where can I find a link to the iCal availability calendar?

When logged into the Admin Console, look for the "Share" heading when viewing your property.

Why is this useful?

The iCal formatted feed can be used to

1. view your vacation rental's availability in your favourite calendar application 
      
2. publish availability to 3rd party listing websites
