Managing Visibility
Making Services Public

- Price is correct (or intentionally blank)
- Duration is accurate
- Linked to appropriate calendars
Making Services Private
When hiding a service:
- Existing bookings are not affected
- Clients can’t book new sessions
- You can still book it manually
- Service remains in your list
Temporary Privacy
For seasonal services:
- Create the service as private
- Make public when season starts
- Set back to private when season ends
- Repeat as needed
Display Order
Control the order public services appear:
- Edit service
- Set Display Order number
- Lower numbers appear first
- Save
Example:
| Service | Display Order |
|---|---|
| Free Consultation | 1 |
| Standard Session | 2 |

Put your most popular or introductory service first to guide new clients.
