Venue or Vendor Pictures

Each business can have its own repository of pictures.

Upload multiple pictures of your listing

Once uploaded, you can drag pictures from the thumbnail and drop them to a free slot.

Place pictures in each slot in the order on which you would like them to be displayed. The slot #1 is the primary picture used on search results.

The remaining images are displayed when the venue details are displayed on the website. In the details page all the venue information shows up: * Description, Address, Map, Calendar, Booking Form, etc.

You can move pictures around in any order you choose, or delete as well.

Your photos will also be featured in the WCWV Photobook, which can be found on the WCWV homepage.

How do I save my information?

Click on UPDATE before you leave the site to save you information.

What are the DELETE buttons?

The DELETE VENUE or VENDOR button will remove the listing from the website, this operation cannot be undone.

There is also a red DELETE PICTURE button on the editing page.

How do I set up my calendar?

There is a sub-screen of the Venue Editing process.

It will allow you to “reserve” certain date-ranges in which your venue will be pre-booked, and will not be available to booking requests. You can do so if you do a booking via a different channel, or have certain dates of no availability.

Enter start date through end date of when the venue is booked – enter the name and email of the person booking the venue (if any), and any comments about the reservation, these comments are for your reference only.

The Reserve button will execute the reserve, and the date-range will then appear on your calendar and on the viewer’s side. Reserved dates will not be bookable by visitors.

You can manage this reserve in the booking requests admin, in the same way as you will be able to manage booking requests.

What are the benefits of remaining up-to-date with my information?

http://worldclassweddingvenues.com/user-profile

Make sure your information is up to date for 2 reasons:

1. The system will need to send you information about your businesses.
2. The system will need to be able to charge your credit card, when it’s necessary to renew a membership.

A credit card is necessary for renewing the subscription of a business and preserve its visibility.

Describe important information about my account and booking information for the calendar on my venue.

http://worldclassweddingvenues.com/venue-book-admin

With it, you can see the date ranges (start / end), personal information for the requesting party, and the status of the booking, for example Rejected or Accepted.

By clicking the MANAGE button in the book admin, you will be able to manage a single booking on a single venue.

You can update the start / end dates, add notes, change the status of the booking request (accepted / rejected) and also send emails to the requesting party.

When you are comfortable with the booking settings, click the ACCEPT button. If you change your mind, you can always REJECT a booking.

When a booking is ACCEPTED, the calendar will display it as a busy date, and other visitors will not be able to book on the same dates. While a booking is in REJECT mode, other booking requests can arrive on the same dates, and you will have to sort them out.

Deleting a single booking request will delete this booking from the calendar, and from your records. If you are undecided, use instead the REJECT button.
