How to Use the “Look Busy” Feature
Want to create urgency or reduce your visible availability? Koalendar’s Look Busy feature helps by hiding a percentage of your open time slots—making your calendar appear more booked.
✅ How to Enable Look Busy
- Open your Booking Page Editor.
- Scroll to the bottom and click “Show advanced configuration” under Additional Options.
- Find the “Look busy” setting and toggle it on.
- Click Edit to choose a range—for example, hide 30–60% of available slots.
- Save your changes.
🔍 How It Works
- When someone visits your booking page, Koalendar will randomly mark a percentage of available times as busy—based on the range you selected.
- That selection is cached for the visitor, so refreshing the page shows the same blocked slots.
- Once a real booking happens, that time is blocked for everyone as usual.
💡 Why Use This?
- 🧠 Reduce choice fatigue for invitees
- 🚀 Create scarcity and increase conversions
- 🛡️ Protect your calendar without using strict booking limits
🛠️ Best Practices
- ✅ Turn on “Gray out busy slots” to help visitors understand blocked times visually.
- 🎯 Use a conservative range like 20–40% to appear naturally booked.
- 📅 Combine with booking limits for even more control over your schedule.
