Introducing New Onboarding Listing Flow and Special Offers
Hostshare is excited to unveil significant updates designed to streamline the listing process, enhance calendar synchronization, and introduce enticing special offers for our users. These changes are aimed at improving the overall functionality and user experience on our platform.
What’s New:
New Listing Flow - Backdoor Reviews:
  • Immediate Go Live:
    Users can now immediately go live, accessing their 21 nights and completing membership payments, even before their listing is fully reviewed.
  • Pre-Review Access:
    Users have full access to view all listings and availability, but will encounter a notification error if they attempt to book before their listing is approved.
  • Preview Status:
    Listings will display as "preview or coming soon" until manually reviewed and marked as
    approved
    , ensuring only suitable and fully synced listings are bookable.
  • Enhanced Admin Insights:
    The admin dashboard now displays detailed review and view statuses (e.g., pending key details, approved, in-review) to manage listings more effectively.
Export Calendar Requirements:
  • Clear Sync Steps:
    We've clarified the calendar synchronization process by separating it into import and export steps, enhancing understanding for users.
  • Sync Confirmation Requirement:
    Users are required to acknowledge that they have exported their calendars to Airbnb or a property management system. Admins can verify sync requests, ensuring accurate calendar integration.
  • Admin Cal Export Sync Status:
    The admin panel now indicates whether the Hostshare calendar have been "synced" or "not yet synced," prompting necessary follow-ups to ensure full integration with other OTA websites like Airbnb and other PMS.
