Option to classify blocked dates as "Booked" for Vrbo algorithm purposes

I’ve noticed that when a booking is made on another platform (e.g., Airbnb), the dates are reflected as “blocked” on my Vrbo calendar through Hospitable, rather than being categorized as “booked.”

I recently learned from Vrbo support that marking these dates as “booked” (instead of just blocked) can positively impact listing performance and ranking within their algorithm.

Would it be possible to add an option in Hospitable to default classify externally blocked dates (like Airbnb reservations) as “booked” on Vrbo?

This would help hosts maintain better visibility on Vrbo and align with their suggested best practices.

Thanks so much for considering this improvement! Jessie
