WebRes - Customize / Configure

Hide Room Type

To hide a room type, in the Room Type Setup in the PMS software, set Central Res'v Code to "$NO".



WebRes Customization (Look and Feel)

These steps may be performed by the web developer or by Execu/Tech. If the web developer doesn’t wish to modify the WebRes configuration, Execu/Tech will do it for an hourly charge.

  1. Create a header and footer so that the WebRes pages fit the theme of the customer’s web site. The header will be placed inside inc_header.asp. The footer will be placed inside inc_footer.asp.

  2. Modify the fonts, calendar colors, calendar size, page colors, text, etc. webres.css contains all CSS settings. inc_variables.asp contains feature enabling and disabling, label text, etc. Read this file in a text editor to see what options are there.
Any images used by the web designer should be copied to the WebRes folder to prevent an SSL message warning that there are unsecure items on the page.
