  @Tyler-Powell Hi! I’m Michelle with MyVR. Thank you for the question. In order to access the Advanced Rate Options, you need to have a Default rate plan in place temporarily. Once you’ve updated the Same Day Turn option, you can put the original rate plan back. We’ve updated this Help article with step-by-step info: https://help.myvr.com/hc/en-us/articles/4402997402132-Setting-Same-Day-Turn-Rule-for-a-Property Please let us know if you have any further questions.

  @terry-amacher I don’t think that’s a filter choice - but I can see it’s application. Might be worth a feature request.

  @kishore-kakileti Hi Kishore, just a note to say the system works perfect! We are managing multiple units and getting unique access codes added automatically to each reservation. We could not be happier and look forward to working with you in the future. Charles - Cedar Creek Vacation Rentals

  I don’t think that exists at the moment, but would be an interesting feature request. The catch would be, if the guest books off of that attached quote, I wouldn’t want it to be pre-approved in the same way that a quote I send is.

  A quick follow up to this thread… If you are interested in the Zapier beta, send an email to zapier-beta@myvr.com and we’ll provide instructions for accessing it. It’s a great way to connect your MyVR account to thousands of other applications, no technical skills required. It currently supports a wide number of triggers and actions related to inquiries, messages, reservations, and payments. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions about the beta. Cheers, Mike

  They have reportedly updated their plug-in to allow use on non-Wordpress sites. Since I don’t really use wordpress I was wondering if I could get it to work with MYVR. Trying to gain broader exposure to our site and build domain authority in our market since we’re writing useful and in-depth articles on traveling in our area. Darrell

  @dave-both - that works for locks where you can choose the code (Schlage) and I do that for one property where I have that, but our condos have resort locks so the only way to create a code I can define is manually on the lock. Since I’m remote, I have to use the system software to generate a code. So that’s why I just manually have to edit the email with the correct lock code before setting the send date.

  Hi Jonathan, I’ve been working this path for a while - and have a longer list of what doesn’t work than what does. Regarding owner statements, what do you currently use as an accounting package for your business? If using Quickbooks (as I do) you can generate those statements there. For cleaning and maintenance, I’m currently using an app called Task Meister - evaluating it. It doesn’t have the bells and whistles I’d like, but it does keep items from dropping through the cracks and it doesn’t cost my first born son. How many properties are you managing? Jenny

  @michelle-clark said in Calendar sharing and a question: where do you find the window ‘sych with iCal’? TY Hi @michelle-clark, Here is a tutorial on how to set up calendar syncing with MyVR. This should get you started with the MyVR side of things. You will need to reference the iCal syncing help material for whatever platform you are trying to sync with to complete the other half of the syncing setup. Best, Danny

  Hi @mackenzie-owen , MyVR doesn’t currently have a way to edit the rates for multiple properties at once, although that sounds neat! Feel free to submit a feature request for this. Cheers, Danny

  Hi @Jenny-Oest, At MyVR, we strongly believe in being an open platform. We want you to be able to use the property data stored in our product to better market your vacation rentals. As a result, we have a robust API that you can use to get data out of MyVR, including rates. MyVR API - Rates That is how you can get your rates out of MyVR. How to get them into FloridaRentals.com is up to you. Best, Danny

  Hey Jill, Each partner interprets the iCalendar feeds a little differently rather than to the specification. For this reason, we’ve added some advanced controls to overcome the situation you’re experiencing. From your Calendar Export settings for the iCalendar feed in MyVR. You can add or remove days from calendar events so that the feed reflects the differences in how each channel is interpreting the feed. I’m assuming this is for all events sent to TripAdvisor for this calendar. These are the advanced controls I’m referring to: Thanks for the question. Hope that helps.

  Hi John, Great question. This is the default automatic inquiry responder. This will be sent as a response to an inquiry if none of your other inquiry responders should be sent based on their rules. To customize this message, add an inquiry responder to the end of your list that has absolutely no conditions (it always sends if nothing before it sends). Make sure it is on the end of your list, otherwise it will block anything that comes after it. Here is an example of how to set this up. Cheers, Danny
