Code snippets for the booking page and booking widgets are available in SETTINGS->BOOKING WIDGETS.

Customise Booking Widgets

You can use HTML and CSS to create custom solutions.

Customise Booking Page

The booking page can be embedded in a page using an iframe or opened with a link or form.

Custom CSS and Javascript can be entered in SETTINGS->BOOKING PAGE ADVANCED.

The behavior of the booking page can be controlled with the following parameters passed in the URL or form.

URL Parameters are always added in the format name=value. To separate them, the first parameter must have a ? before it and all following parameters must have an & before them.

For example if you want to change the default for the numbers of night selector to 7 nights you change the link to your booking page from

https://www.beds24.com/booking2.php?propid=2047

to

https://www.beds24.com/booking2.php?propid=2047&numnight=7


For example if you want to hide the header from
