Defaulting your Group widget to open on a specific venue. 

This allows you to set you group widget to open and offer availability for a specific venue. If the guests chosen date and time in not available, they can check availability with your other venues with a simple click. 

Step 1: 

Go to Promote > Widget Configurator. 

If you wish to create a new widget, please click ''create new theme''. 

Ensure you choose a 'group' style widget. 

If you wish to adjust an existing group widget, please click the edit icon next to the group widget you have already created. 

Step 2: 

Once you have opened the configurator console, please navigate to 'Venue Selection' - 'Default Venue'. 

Here you can choose the default venue you wish your group widget open on. 

Step 3: 

Once you are happy with your widget set up, click the blue continue button. 

You will then be brought to the widget embed screen. 

Note - the preview of your group widget here will not default to your default venue, don't worry - it will once it has been embedded. 

Step 4: 

Extract your widget URL from the embed code. 

Your widget URL begins with https and will end with your microsite name, please see below: 

It will look something like this (Please note, this is a test widget, do not use the below URL) 

https://booking.resdiary.com/widget/Standard/KayJays/62454?

Step 5

Once you have located this URL, a small change is needed before you can embed it. 

Within the URL, add the code ?&initialProviderMicrositeName='add your microsite name here'. You can see what your microsite name is on the link above where it says KayJays exceot this will say your microsite name not KayJays. 

Your new URL should look like the below: 

https://booking.resdiary.com/widget/Standard/KayJays/62454?&initialProviderMicrositeName=KayJays

We would recommend using an iframe to embed this code to your website.
