I'd like to have the possibility to show more places than available. Here is an exemple : I have events that host 12 persons, but 6 spots are blocked for regulars every single event. As of now, I do not have any other choice but put 6 open spots in the app, so customers see 6/6 spots available. I would love if they saw 6/12 spots available. Maybe just add a field somewhere that overwrites the "maximum spots" number... Thank you!

    Being able to adjust capacity on any given day would work. For example, if I have a person booking who has special needs I’d like the option of limiting the number of bookings for that day. Other times I’d like the option of adding a spot on a particular day,

    scholar-rider.myshopify.com That's not really what I am saying. What I am saying is that my classes can, most of the time, accomodate 12 people. But at least 6 spots are automatically filled by regulars who do not use the booking system. When someone sees on the website 5 of 6 spots left, he will believe classes are for 6 persons and only one person has already booked, but in truth there are 12 spots and 7 of them are already booked. Big marketing difference.

    Matthieu In some ways we are both asking for more flexibility and control when it comes to booking numbers. On my bike tour if I discover a small group booked the tour and at least one person is not a confident biker, I want to reduce capacity for that day. It is better if I give one family a slow and easy tour and not make experience confident bikers' tour being impacted. If I could limit the capacity those riders can book on a different day or time and have a much better tour.
