How To - Timeline View

The Plan / Timeline buttons allow you to toggle between the traditional table plan view and the timeline view.

The Timeline view allows the host to see an overview of the day ahead in terms of reservations and those already seated. This can be used to identify gaps in the booking schedule allowing you to offer customers different timeslots if their preference is unavailable.
