Create a Summarised Itinerary View Using Appearance Settings

Learn how to simplify your itinerary presentation using TripCreator’s itinerary appearance feature.

Overview

This article will guide you through setting up a simplified, summarised itinerary using the Itinerary Appearance settings. We'll use an example inspired by Lost in Norway. 📌 View the example itinerary here.

#1 What is an Itinerary Appearance?

In TripCreator, an itinerary appearance is a custom itinerary display that lets you:

• Show or hide specific itinerary elements to control how much detail is shared.

• Save and reuse these settings across multiple itineraries.

• Instantly switch between appearances to adjust visibility for different audiences.

#2 What You’ll Need to Create a Summarised Itinerary Appearance

To follow this guide, make sure you have:

1. An existing itinerary available in your dashboard.

2. Access to the Itinerary Appearance settings in your account (requires admin rights or the “Itinerary Appearance” permission).

#3 Locating and Creating a New Itinerary Appearance

1. Go to Settings in the left-hand menu.

2. Select General Settings.

3. Navigate to the Appearances tab at the top of the window.

4. Click the +Create new button.

Looking at the Lost in Norway example: the itinerary has fewer tabs, no pricing, and no contact information. We’ll aim to replicate this lightweight appearance by adjusting the following sections in your appearance settings: Title, General, Tabs, Buttons, Footer, and each product type (Attractions, Experiences, etc.).

#4 Step-by-Step: Configuring a Summarised Itinerary Appearance

1. Title: Give your appearance a clear name, e.g. Summarised Itinerary.

2. General: Disable all contact-related and pricing-related options.

3. Tabs: Turn off Pricing, Optionals, About Us, and Files.

4. Buttons: Turn off the "Have a Question?" button.

5. Footer: Disable Company Info and Social Info (these refer to your business address and social media links in the itinerary footer).

6. About Us and Pricing: No action needed here since those tabs are already hidden.

7. Product Categories (Attractions, Experiences, etc.): For each product type, hide the Price element.

8. Make sure to scroll down and click Save when finished.
