Hosted Websites - CSS Magic

This page contains notes on CSS snippets that can be used in Hosted Websites to do various things.

WARNING: These are coding magic and are not guaranteed to be supported forever. We will attempt to keep this page up-to-date, and not to make changes to Hosted Website functionality needlessly, but this cannot be a promise.

CSS snippets can be added to your Hosted Website by navigating to Settings > Hosted Websites > click your website > Edit Theme/Layout button > CSS tab. Just drop the code snippet on a separate line in the field block, and save.

Hosted Sites

Remove Rates

You may not want to show rates on your property pages. For instance, you may use Spot Rates (PriceLabs, rate calendar editing, etc) and so the seasonal/average displays are correct. To hide those sections, use the following CSS snippets:

Multi-property sites > on the individual property page > the "RATES" tab on the menu

a[href$="#rates"] { display:none !important; }

Multi-property sites > on the individual property page > the high/low amount that shows under the picture carousel

.multiproperty .body-content .col-md-8 > div:nth-child(5) { display: none; }

Multi-property sites > on the individual property page > the rate section (header and table) that shows down under the amenities towards the bottom

.multiproperty #rates { display: none; }
.multiproperty #rates + div { display: none; }

Multi-property sites > on the home page > the high/low amount that shows next to each property in the list

.multihome .property-result-list h3.pull-right {display:none;}

Multi-property sites > on the Properties page > the high/low amount that shows next to each property in the list

.multipropertyindex .property-result-list h3.pull-right {display:none;}

Single-property sites > on the home page > the "Rate" label and price range

.amenity-summary-rate { display: none; }

Remove Cancellation Policy Display

.multiproperty #rates + div + p { display: none; }

Remove Description

.singlehome .amenity-description { display:none }

Remove Location (Map)

You may not want to show the "Location" section on your property pages which is the Google Map tile that shows in the middle. To hide location/map, use the following CSS snippets:

Multi-property sites > on the individual property page > the "LOCATION" tab on the menu

a[href$="#location"] { display:none !important; }

Multi-property sites > on the individual property page > the location section (Google Map tile) that shows down under the availability calendar in the middle

.multiproperty #location { display: none; }
.multiproperty #location + div { display: none; }

Remove Reviews

You may not want to show reviews on your property pages. To hide reviews, use the following CSS snippets:

Multi-property sites > on the individual property page > the "REVIEWS" tab on the menu

a[href$="#reviews"] { display:none !important; }

Multi-property sites > on the individual property page > the reviews section (header and table) that shows down under the amenities towards the bottom

.multiproperty #reviews { display: none; }
.multiproperty div[data-widget-type=Reviews] { display: none; }

Remove Property Search Result Count

If you want to show a simple list of the resulting properties without a numeric count, hide the count display.

.property-count {display:none}

Page Backgrounds

Locking Photo Background on OR Hosted Web Pages - If you add a photo as the background on a page, and you want that photo to remain as the background even when visitors scroll down the page.

body { background-attachment: fixed !important }

Changing secondary background color:

html.has-fullpage-background #content { background-color: #f00 !important }

Replace the hex code in the example with the desired color.

Hero Unit Slideshow Font Color

This turns the color black, but the hex code can be changed to any color.

#carousel-hero .carousel-caption h1 {color:#000000;text-shadow:0 0 3px rgba(255,255,255,1);}

Widgets

Individual widgets have their own CSS which can be controlled, to affect how they display on the pages where they are used. This is helpful for when Widgets are in use in sites other than an OwnerRez Hosted Website.

Book Now/Inquiry Widget

Remove Dates/Size

Sometimes you just want a contact us form, without actually sending in a full inquiry. You can do this by editing the CSS on the inquiry/booking widget itself.

*NOTE* This must be set directly in the widget CSS, not on the hosted website CSS mentioned above. As such it will work for widgets regardless of whether you have a hosted website or not.

Also, if you use this option, make sure to turn off date validation in the widget settings! Otherwise, the widget will reject every inquiry because it doesn't include any dates, but they can't include dates because you turned them off.

.date-holder,
.size-holder
{
  display:none;
}

Remove Contact Info/Make A Quote Viewer

Sometimes you just want to show a quote, without a bunch of fields where the guest thinks they have to enter the contact info first. You can do this by editing the CSS on the inquiry/booking widget itself.

*NOTE* This must be set directly in the widget CSS, not on the hosted website CSS mentioned above. As such it will work for widgets regardless of whether you have a hosted website or not.

Also, if you use this option, you may want to set the "Quote Without Occupancy" option on the widget so it quotes immediately when dates are entered -- particularly if you have no guest fees so the quote will be the same regardless of number of guests selected.

#group-Name,
#group-Email,
#group-Phone,
#group-DiscountCode,
.comments-holder,
.book-button-holder,
.inquiry-button-holder
{
  display:none
}

Change Button Name

This changes “Search” to “Find Your Stay”. You can replace “Find Your Stay” with some other text if you prefer.

.btn[type=submit]:before {
  content: "Find Your Stay!";
  font-size: 14px;
}

.btn[type=submit] {
  font-size: 0;
}

Change "Properties" Dropdown Name

This changes “Properties” to "Packages”. You can replace “Packages” with some other text if you prefer.

.form-group label[for=PropertyKeyx] {
  visibility: hidden;
}
.form-group label[for=PropertyKeyx]:before {
  content:'Packages'; 
  visibility: visible;
}

Book Now/Inquiry Widget: Remove Comments Field and Inquiry Button

This results in a pure "book now" form, no inquiries or questions allowed.

.comments-holder,

.inquiry-button-holder

{

  display:none

}

Calendar Widget

Shrink Width

Sometimes, if you are including Rates on your Calendar Widget, the display gets wider, but your website doesn't automatically adapt to it and the edges are cut off. You can fix this with the following code:

.flex-calendar.has-rates .day-content
{
    width: 28px;
    overflow: hidden;
}

Change Color for Past Dates

We use a color based on the blocked color to show past dates and other out of range dates. If you want to set your own color, use with the following code.

"#999999" is just a medium gray, but you can change that to something else. Go to Hex Color Picker to find a color you like. Copy the "HEX" value for your color, and replace the "#999999" with your color HEX (be sure the # sign is present after changing the value).

.flex-calendar .flex-calendar-out-of-range {
    background: #999999 !important;
}

Ribbon Calendar Widget

Remove Today/Holiday Legend

You may not use holidays so you don't want "today" and "holiday" legend to show. To remove the legend from the top-right corner, insert this CSS:

#legend {display:none;}

Reviews Widget

Change Star Color

.review-average > .review-average-stars { color: gold; }
.fas { color: gold; }

If you'd rather have some other color, use this online color picker to find one, and replace the word "gold" in the above code with the HTML hex code of your selection - the 7 character code starting with a pound sign # and followed by 6 more alphanumeric characters.

Hide The Filter Bar

.reviews-filter-bar { display: none }

Using a Custom Font in a Widget

To override fonts on a widget, you'll need a source for fonts such as https://fonts.google.com/

To get CSS from there:

Pick the font and add the style
Review the selected style and switch it to @import mode
Copy the @import

So for example, for this font in the screenshot you'd end up adding this CSS to the widget:

@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Akaya+Telivigala&display=swap');

*
{
    font-family: 'Akaya Telivigala', cursive;
}
