Administration area / Interactive extensions / Availability extensions
An availability extension is an addition that has been made to the original availability. This means that the availability of the linked calendars will be directly influenced by this component.
Availability extensions can be useful for instance when the same product or service has different prices for different categories of people (adults, children etc). Accordingly, when a reservation for two adults and a child is made, all three items are subtracted from the availability and the price is calculated considering the different prices for the two categories.
Main Settings
Once you have created an availability extension, you can customise it in the configuration section. In the advanced settings, you can set custom availability, schedule and conditions. Main settings incorporate three tabs: ‘applied to’ that can be used to link the component to one or more calendars, ‘actions’ which can be used to delete or duplicate it and ‘main data’ which contains the following:

For the example listed above (different prices for adults and children) you’ll have to create an availability extension for each category, then add an item for every available option.
