How to Block Off Dates and Times in Your GoHighLevel Calendar

By Marnix Geerkens. Published 2020-07-20. Updated 2026-06-02.

GoHighLevel lets you mark specific days or time slots as unavailable directly from the scheduling calendar. Open the calendar, click any date you want to close, select all day to block the full day, or drag across a time range to remove just those hours. Blocked slots disappear from your booking widget immediately.

Summary. This walkthrough covers how to close out specific dates or time windows inside a GoHighLevel calendar without deleting or rebuilding it. By clicking or dragging on the scheduling view, any day or portion of a day can be hidden from clients before they ever see the booking widget. The change takes effect as soon as the block is saved.
