Display-Only Vendors

Configure one or more display-only vendors to set them as the only vendors displayed in the search results. You can set options to mark all rentals from a vendor as display-only, or limit it to only certain options or specific locations.

To add a display-only vendor, click the add display-only vendor link at the top right of the Display-Only Vendors section on the Vendor Criteria screen. The Add Display-Only Vendor screen appears.

To edit a display-only vendor, click the Edit button next to an existing display-only vendor on the Vendor Criteria screen. The Edit Display-Only Vendor screen appears and is nearly identical to the Add screen.

Whether to use Excluded Vendors or Display-Only Vendors depends on how many vendor settings that you need to create. If there are only a few vendors to hide, Excluded Vendors is the better option. If there are only a few vendors to show, Display-Only Vendors is the better option.
