Blocking out dates in the calendar

We have a flat in Canterbury which we sometimes list for the summer months.

I want to list it now but only with availability from mid-March, however I can't

seem to locate the tab/ functionality to block out dates. Haven't listed the

accommodation for over a year and find the new interface difficult to navigate.

Can anyone provide any guidance? Does the accommodation need to be listed

before I adjust the calendar? Am hesitant to list in case I can't block out dates

until March and get a booking which can't accept.Thank you

Hi @Helen3344,

 

I responded on your other post. 

Yes, you do need to publish your listing first before the option to adjust your calendar appears. 

 

I find the best thing to do is go to the Availability section of your calendar and the go to the Availability Window section and choose, "Dates unavailable by default".  Then all the dates will be blocked out and you manually open the dates that your listing is available.  Here is a screenshot.
