Happy New Year and A New Feature

Yes, it is already 2012.  Every year seems to go quicker than the next.  To kick off the new year, we just finished work on a slideshow feature.  Photos uploaded to the Additional Photos section under the Property, Room, or Fraction screens can now be turned into a slideshow automatically.

‍

Once enabled, a link to open the slideshow will appear automatically under the Primary Photo.  The slideshow can also be access easily by clicking on the Primary Photo.

The slideshow opens right on top of the reservation page, defaulting to auto play, three seconds on each photo.  The slideshow window also has controls for advancing with a mouse through the photos, or users can press the arrow keys on their keyboard.

While editing your Property, Room, or Fraction screens, any photos uploaded under the Additional Photos section can now be automatically transformed into a beautiful slideshow. Once enabled:

• A “View Slideshow” link will appear just beneath the primary photo—or just click the main photo directly.
• The slideshow pops up in an overlay on the reservation page.
• It auto-plays every 3 seconds and supports navigation via mouse controls or keyboard arrow keys.

This offers a sleek, interactive alternative to the traditional Additional Details section—you can use both or just one, based on your preference.

This is a nice alternative to using the Additional Details window for displaying extra information.  You can now use just the slideshow, or not, or both.

Why Your Business Will Love It

• Visual Impact: Make a strong first impression with dynamic, professional slideshows that immediately engage potential guests.
• Enhanced User Experience: Visitors can browse full-size, auto-playing images without leaving the reservation flow.
• Easy Setup: Simply upload your photos and one click activates the slideshow—no coding required.
