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 Hours tab (operating hours).
- Freelancer: the Availability tab.
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.
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.
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.
