Activity Settings

This article describes general activity settings that are available under Settings > Activity Settings.

Activity Label

The activity label should be set as the general category of what the company offers.

The activity label should be entered as lower case and plural.

This text will be used in auto-generated phrases throughout the site, like in the related activities section header or auto-generated for banner book buttons like “All Tours”.

Example: Common terms used in place of activities include:

• Tours
• Cruises
• Events
• Classes
• Rentals

Activity Icon

The activity icon will appear by default on all your activity page book buttons.

If left blank, no icon will appear on the activity page book buttons.

To customize individual buttons with icons, create a custom book button under the activities button tab.

“From” Price Subtitle

To add the “per” label in the “from” price box on all activity blocks and grids, navigate to Activity Settings > “From” Price Subtitle field:

If left blank, no subtitle under the “from” price on an activity block will appear.

Note: You do not need to set the “From” Price Subtitle globally to enable this for a single activity. This field has an 11 character suggested limit.

Example of how it will display:

Need to set the From Price Subtitle on an individual activity

Need to override the global label on a specific activity? OR only need to add it to a specific activity? OR different “per” labels for each activity:

Go to edit the activity page. Under the pricing tab, there is a “From” Price Subtitle field. This will also override the global label set in Activity Settings if there is one set there.

Example of how it would display:

Activity Display Options

Some display options can be set globally in Activity Settings:

• Don’t render “From” when showing an activities starting price. – Removes “From” from all activity blocks on the site.
• Use the body font for the quick details header as opposed to the headline font.
• Enable branding for the Lightframe. – This setting will display the company’s logo at the top of the checkout section on the lightframe for all activities – Globally.
• Enable horizontal scrolling on more than 3 related activities: This property can be reversed locally on each activity page – If you have more than 3 related activities they will be shown in a scrolling view rather than stacked for all activities. This helps reduce the length of each the page.
  • You can disable horizontal scrolling per activity page. Under Related tab > “Override global side scroll on featured activities: See current global setting option page here.”

There are many display options for activities that can be set on a per activity level:

The full list of display options is below, with details for when to use them:

• Activity is Affiliate – Treat this activity as an affiliate activity.
• Activity is Event – Treat this activity as an event. Set a start and optional end date in the Timing tab that display on the front end.
• Call to Book – This option will remove the calendar from the activity page and the book button will call the companies phone number.
• Hide Calendar on Desktop – Hide the calendar on this activity page on desktop – by default it is visible. (Please make sure this is the correct solution)
• Show Calendar on Mobile – Show the calendar on this activity page on mobile – by default it is hidden
• Lightframe Branding – Enable branding for this activities lightframe. This setting will display the company’s logo at the top of the checkout section on the lightframe for the selected activity. We suggest using this if the site is an Affiliate Site. This will add ” &branding=yes” to the url of the activity.

Activities Display Order

In the activity grid, there will be a default order of activities displayed. You can manually set them to a display order, ideally in an order where the most popular activities are listed first.

Select items from the left column to add them to the right, and then drag and drop them to change the order. Anything not added to the right column will automatically be displayed last.

Exclude Activities

To exclude any items completely from the sites activities grids, use the Excluded Activities section. However, it’s important to note that simply adding an activity to the Excluded Activities section does not necessarily mean it will be completely gone from the site.

Featured Activities

To use the Featured Activity Grid, you must select 1-6 activities. The selected activities will automatically show in the following locations:

• 404 page
• No search results page
• Related Activities section on activity pages
• Featured Activity section on blog posts

You can override this on activities and blog posts by selecting related/featured activities for each post, or hide related/featured activities altogether by checking ‘Don’t show featured activities on this post.’

This grid can also be used throughout the site (a good place might be the homepage where you want to feature a few activities) by creating an activity grid row and selecting the ‘Default Featured Activities set in Activity Settings’ option.

Taxonomies

Taxonomies are a way of categorizing activities on the site. For information on defining and using taxonomies on FareHarbor sites, reference this help page.
