Hello,

It’s been a while since I was on TH. Does anyone know why the availability calendar on the dashboard has gone? I got sit invites I can’t do. Many thanks.

Calendar by all accounts useless and HO’s inviting often don’t check anyway.

The Availability Calendar is there but found in the Your Profile section.

The calendar is odd in that it lets you enter the dates you are available rather than blocking the dates you are not. It also doesn’t prevent invitations or listing notifications for dates when you are unavailable.

@catcaller68, as @Cathie rightly noted then the THS calendar function has no effective purpose. Even if HS enters availability then HO can still invite anytime. And cold invites are typically ineffective anyway. Suggest politely decline cold invites, as appropriate.
