Scheduler: Override regular hours with custom days
Synapse Consulting
I understand the way the scheduler was created, you can set your normal availability, then on your personal calendar "block out" times you're not available etc.
This is stressful.
It would be great to have an override option where a calendar pulls up and you can select the days/times you are available for that calendar. Instead of just having to manage the Moxie calendar, I end up having to manage my google calendar too.
With Acuity, I can set my availability for let's say, Monday, the 11th from 1pm -3pm and another week Thursday the 21st, from 7pm - 9pm. That is MUCH easier than having an open calendar for every single Monday at 1pm - 3pm or Thursday from 7pm-9pm, then trying to go back and block the specific Monday's and Thursday's I'm not available on my personal google calendar.
When I'm traveling, Moxie checks my google calendar for flights etc., but I now have to add blocked time and adjust my calendar so that the scheduler doesn't book the meeting 15 minutes before my plane takes off. It's more work this way to make sure your scheduler isn't inadvertently open when you don't want it to be. It's a hassle putting time blocks sporadically throughout the month on your own Google calendar.

100% I would love this. None of my weeks are the same and being able to add in availability makes so much more sense for me than blocking things out. I’m currently
Working on embedding tidycal but hoping to avoid the extra steps and extra platforms is why I joined moxie to begin with so might defeat the purpose.

Yes please! I need different meeting schedulers for different days. I spend a lot of time and energy making adjustments and having to schedule without using the links because of this.

Definitely missing this compared to other calendars. I was just going to assign hours for when I'm traveling and work remotely. Can't seem to do that.

I have a particular service that can only be booked on the first Monday and third Monday of the month. I would like to block out the second and fourth Mondays. I would not like to block it out of my Google calendar cause it'll block out my availability for other schedulers too 🙈
Being able to set availability/unavailability with more flexibly and depending on the date (like how it was in Dubsado) would be great. Thank you Moxie folks you are amazing

Yes! I did this with my previous ProBooking calendar. I just went to add available time for next Monday, which I normally keep closed - but I can't without making it available every Monday. And I don't want to do that.
In my previous calendar, there was an override. So you could have routine weekly openings, like it is in Moxie currently, but you could override it for a particular day and either add openings or change the times available without affecting other days.
