"Boost your chance of getting booked" link do nothing

I got "Boost your chance of getting booked" e-mail saying I can turn on option to automatically send one-time offer with 10% discounts to guests who view certain dates in my calendar. But, when I clicked the link in e-mail, it just opened my calendar without any hint what should I do to activate that option.

 

Some help would be appreciated here.

 

Thanks in adavance.

When you clicked the link and it opened up your calendar it should have displayed the date's options on the right side to accept the change. You might try clicking on the exact date to see if it gives the option.

 

I have actually never received an email, but have received a 10% off opportunity twice on my calendar page about specific days. Both times I accepted the offer, but still did not get booked. This last time the 10% off stopped showing the day before the date arrived.

 

When your listing shows on the results page there is no text or any type of icon to indicate that that listing is "on sale." After you click the listing, select the date that includes the sale, there is just one line of small text under the pink "book now" button to indicate that there is any lower cost.

 

Adter you accept the offer there will be a tiny medium grey icon displayed on the sale date on your calendar to indicate that that day is having a special price.

 

 

The offer said e-mails would be sent to prospective customers who have been looking at my room, but nothing came up to say this had been done. I frequently have issues with the site not working properly. 

Currently I am trying to upload photos, it will let me take photos, but even though I have allowed access to my photos, nothing happens when I try and load. It's all very frustrating.

I appreciate this is a forum, but do Airbnb ever actually address any of these issues, or just rely on the generosity of its members to placate, and I'm sure in many instances help, but at no cost to themselves!

Same thing here. It's happened twice. On my phone and in Chrome it just opens up my calendar - no options to set a sale price that gets emailed out to prospective renters. Any solutions?
