Hours and availability
The hours tab is where you tell FindMyGig when you accept clients. Everything you open up here becomes a booking option on your storefront — and anything you don’t open up simply doesn’t show up for the client.
Where the tab lives
Section titled “Where the tab lives”The name changes depending on your account type, but the function is the same:
- Physical studio: the Horário de Funcionamento tab (operating hours).
- Freelancer: the Minha Disponibilidade tab (my availability).
Set hours by day of the week
Section titled “Set hours by day of the week”You configure a service window for each day of the week — Monday through Sunday. For each day you set:
- Whether or not you work that day.
- The start time.
- The end time.
Leave a day without a window (or mark it as closed) and it becomes unavailable for bookings.
Half-hour time slots
Section titled “Half-hour time slots”Times now accept half-hour intervals, not just whole hours. You can open at 09:30 and close at 18:30, for example. This helps anyone who starts their day off the hour or wants to fit more sessions into the day.
Shifts that run past midnight
Section titled “Shifts that run past midnight”A rehearsal studio that goes until 01:00 or 02:00 on Fridays doesn’t need to mark Open 24h. Set the closing time before the opening time, like 09:00 → 02:00, and the app understands that closing is on the next day: a +1 dia (+1 day) tag shows up next to the fields. Then just hit Salvar Horários (save hours).
On your storefront, the hours after midnight show up in the list of the day the shift started (on a Friday set to 09:00 → 02:00, Friday’s list runs up to the 01:00 slot), and the booking lands correctly in the early hours of the next day. The system also measures closing time on the next day: a session that runs past 02:00 is refused with “Esta sessão ultrapassa o horário de fechamento do estúdio (02:00)” (this session goes past the studio’s closing time).
How windows limit what the client books
Section titled “How windows limit what the client books”The windows you define are the source of truth for the booking. In practice:
- The client can only choose times within the windows you’ve opened.
- Times outside your hours don’t even appear as an option.
- Days without a window are unavailable on the storefront.
In other words, you control the schedule from the hours tab — you don’t need to manually decline a booking for being outside your hours, because the client never even gets to select that time.
This tab applies to every week, always the same. To close just one date or a period (holiday, maintenance, private event), use Bloquear agenda (block calendar) on your dashboard calendar. The step by step is in Your calendar.
Multi-day bookings
Section titled “Multi-day bookings”Besides sessions within a single day, the system also supports multi-day bookings — useful for projects that occupy the space for several days in a row (an extended recording day, for example). The booking duration still respects the operating hours you set for each day.
