Next, go to “Edit calendar’s configuration” from the calendar’s actions. Press on “Offer several bookings at the same time”. This wpould be the conventional and regular scheudule. On this way, if you are not going to offer appointments on a constant way and you prefer to configure them so that these are offered only in specific days, mark on every field: 0. Yo can do it manually or writing on the “Default shifts” field de number 0 and, after, pressing on “Assign to all”. Press on Save and check that the changes has been saved correctly.
