Disabling a calendar service menu temporarily removes it from your active offerings without permanently deleting it. This is particularly useful for services that are seasonal or not currently available. Here's how.

Start by accessing the Calendars Settings section within the CRM. Then, select the "Service Calendars" tab and open the Service Menu list.

Find the service you want to disable. If the Status of the Service Menu is listed as "Inactive," the service has already been disabled. Make sure you select the right service menu, as each one may have its own calendar setup.

Disabling the Service

Click on the 3-dot dropdown menu next to the service menu you've chosen. This will open a menu with several options. From the dropdown, select the option to deactivate the menu.

A confirmation popup will appear. Click "Save" to proceed.

Once disabled, the scheduling link for the service menu will no longer allow appointments to be booked and will redirect users to a 404 error page.

How to Enable a Calendar Service

When you're ready to offer the service again, enabling it is just as straightforward.

Locate the Disabled Service

Go to the Service Menu section and find the service you previously disabled.

Enable the Service

Click on the 3-dot dropdown menu next to the disabled service. This will bring up a menu with the option to enable the service. Select "Activate Service Menu" from the dropdown.

Confirm the activation by clicking "Save".

The menu will be instantly re-enabled and will no longer display a 404 page, meaning it's active and available for bookings once again.
