v4.9.1 Booking site and Automation Updates.

1. Around the booking request feature of booking site, we have added multiple notifications and allows guests to communicate directly with hosts via email. Hosts can easily manage these operations using the Hostex Inbox.

  1. Hostex interface now displays a new booking request notification/app push to hosts.
  2. After a guest sends a booking request, they will receive a confirmation message from the host via email. The guest can directly reply to the email to communicate with the host.
  3. After the booking request is accepted or declined by the host, the guest will receive relevant notifications by email.
  4. Once the booking request is accepted by the host and the reservation is created, the guest will receive a booking details email (this feature was already available before).

2. Automation messages can now be conditionally set based on whether the booking includes children, infants, or pets.

3. In the reservation list, you can now filter by room type.

4. You can set whether to allow team accounts to view room rates in bookings.

5. The Guest list now includes channel and property information for guests' previous bookings.
