Link multiple listings does not work?

[Mongkol0]

Hi all,

I have a home with 2 bedrooms so I create 3 listings, one each for each bedroom and the third one is for the entire house. I tried using the created the linked listing function, it looked fine but then when I tried to test by blocking the entire house listing, the other 2 listings are not blocked. Or is this function only works when there is a real booking coming in? 

Thank you very much in advance for all of your advices.

@Mongkol0 - only with a booking.  You can block individual calendars.

Hi Alice & Jeff, thank you very much for your help. That is really what I assume. I wish the link would be more useful if it applies to both from guest reservation and from host themselves....

Is this an Airbnb business decision (making it more difficult to manage bookings made outside Airbnb) or a bug. In my case I only list on Airbnb but have friends staying and it seems at the moment have to block the whole house. I have spoken to support and they agreed it was a bug. Will update if I hear anything more.

As an aside and to avoid confusion Airbnb use 'synced' calendars when referring to external (outside Airbnb) calendars and 'linked' calendars between Airbnb listings.
