New Color Coding in Activity Availability Search

September 13, 2012

When reviewing activity results for Availability Search (entries that get recorded when someone searches for availability on a Reservation Page), if the search results in no units available, a red “No Availability” tag appears next to the activity log. If the search was within your cut-off period, an orange “In Cut-Off” tag appears. Also, groups of searches performed by the same IP address are now color coded into blocks. These enhancements should make it much easier to spot trends in the activity results.
