To reorder products on your Papalocal booking page, change their order on the Rentals Inventory tab. Sort A to Z, put the most booked first, type place numbers or drag items. Each change saves by itself. Give items a group, and your booking page shows a button for each.
Step by step
Before you start: you need a Papalocal account, your rental company on Papalocal and the items you rent.
0:00Open the Inventory tab. In Rentals, open Inventory. The order of your rentals here is the order customers see when they book.
0:05Sort them A to Z. Tap Sort A-Z to put them in name order.
0:08Put the most booked first. The flame shows how many bookings an item has had. Tap Most booked first to put those at the top.
0:15Type a place number. Type an item's place in its # box, like 1 for the Popcorn Machine, and tap Apply numbers.
0:20Drag one instead. Or move an item by dragging its handle, as the video does with the Gaga Ball Pit.
0:23Let it save. Each change saves by itself, and the page says Order saved.
0:26Give items a group. Type a Group for an item, like Extras. Your booking page gets a button for that group.
0:32Check your booking page. Your items show in your order, with a button for each group.
Good to know
One order for both. The order on the Inventory tab is the order on your booking page.
The flame is a count. The number beside the flame is how many bookings that item has had.
Group buttons show a count. On your booking page, each group's button shows how many items it holds, like Water slides (3), beside All.
