Choosing time in the schedule but booking the whole day

Hello, In the application “Bookings”, I offer several appointments per day (according to my availability in the software outlook). But I wish that if a customer books an appointment, no other custom...

    Assuming your day is 9-5 for this example, you could set a buffer time before and after of 8hrs.
    This would block out 8hrs either side of the time chosen by the customer without effecting the next business day.

h3dge Thank you very much for this solution ! However, as soon as I set my buffer time (12h in my case), in the "Service" section, I no longer have any availability offered in my agenda. Same thing when I test with a small buffer time : some availabilities disappear. Maybe I'm not going to the right section ... Please, where should I set this buffer time ?

    I have my buffer time for this particular service set to 1hr after, changing any of these settings for me does not change availability unless someone books a service. 

     

    Maybe its to do with when people can book, for me I have it set to fluid between 10am-6pm

      h3dge Thanks for the screenshot, I am setting in the right section. And strangely for my side changing only the buffer time always modifies availability.

      Thanks anyway for time you spend helping me.

      Best,
