How to set up a listing to make the Calendar sync when entire home is rented vs an individual room

[Hayley227]

Hi, I am listing my entire 5 bedroom upper level of my home as one listing. But I also rent out the bedrooms individually. How can I make the calendar auto sync if I rent the entire home out? Won't the individual listings still show as rentable? Is there a way the system can make them nonvacant when I rent the whole home?

You need to link calendars as described here:

I dont see how that will auto-unlink the 5 individual rooms if the house is rented or unlink the house if even one room is rented.

Here is a past post on this topic:

Summary is…say your whole house is the “Kingdom”, and 2 individual rooms are “Chalets”. Then:

Link your top-level “Kingdom” as follows:

- Link the Kingdom to Chalet One

- Link the Kingdom to Chalet Two 

- DO NOT link Chalet One to Chalet Two

Now:

-If someone books the Kingdom for certain dates, then Chalet One and Chalet Two will be unavailable for those dates

-If someone books only Chalet One for certain dates, then the Kingdom will be unavailable for those dates, but Chalet Two will still  be available

-If someone books only Chalet Two for certain dates, then the Kingdom will be unavailable for those dates, but Chalet One will still be available
