Flexible and User-Friendly Design
The new background customization feature has been thoughtfully integrated into the YouCanBookMe platform:
- Settings can be adjusted on a per-booking page basis, giving users the flexibility to tailor each page to specific needs or clients.
- The customization options are easily accessible under the "Additional options > Appearance section.
- A live preview allows users to see their changes in real-time, ensuring the perfect look before going live.
Optimized for All Devices
YouCanBookMe has ensured that this new feature looks great across all devices:
- On desktop, background images and gradients sit behind the booking page, creating an immersive experience.
- On mobile devices, the background adapts to become an attractive header, maintaining a professional look on smaller screens.
- Choose the right image size. For mobile devices, images that are less than 600 pixels wide may appear blurry, and for desktop devices, anything under 1080 pixels wide could also appear unclear. You might find it helpful to use an image resize tool like Canva to adjust your images to the right dimensions.
