It is possible to open the booking calendar with a specific category. This is useful if you have a different webpage for each category.

To open the booking calendar for a specific product category, you'll need to modify the booking calendar code to include the parameter pcid . You will need to add the parameters in two places within the code. This parameter instructs the booking calendar to show display the requested category. You'll find the pcid value for each category in the product category list under Setup - Business Information - Advanced Options.

Example:

<iframe id="bookingcalendar" src="https://secure.webreserv.com/services/bookingcalendar.do?businessid=decolodgingga&pcid=2572&embedded=y&search=0&css=" style="width: 100%; max-width: 800px; height: 1200px; border: 0; padding: 0; margin: 0;" frameborder="0"><a href="https://secure.webreserv.com/services/bookingcalendar.do?businessid=decolodgingga&pcid=2572&embedded=y&search=0&css=">Make Reservation</a></iframe>
