Airbnb Property Availability Checker Plugin: An Essential Elementor Inquiry Form Tool for Hosts
Airbnb Property Availability Checker is a WordPress plugin designed specifically for Airbnb hosts and short-term rental property teams, released by modeltheme on CodeCanyon. It provides Elementor-based form components that help hosts collect guest stay inquiries on their websites and improve communication efficiency. The plugin package includes plugin files, four form designs, demo data, and documentation, suitable for homestay official websites, short-term rental listing pages, and similar scenarios.
Core Features of Airbnb Property Availability Checker
To be clear, this plugin is a form builder, not an inventory interface. Visitors select check-in dates, check-out dates, number of guests, and property in the form, and after submission the inquiry is sent to the host's email or an on-site workflow, where the host manually confirms whether the stay is available. The plugin itself does not read the Airbnb calendar or perform real-time availability validation, so pages should not be labeled "real-time bookable."
Form Design and Field Customization
The plugin includes four built-in designs, corresponding to four layouts: large image background, left-right split columns, card style, and minimalist form. Fields can be added or removed based on property type: date range, number of adults and children, property dropdown, message, and contact information. Forms are built in Elementor via drag and drop, and field order, label text, and placeholder text can all be modified. Success and failure messages after submission can be configured separately, and you can also redirect to a thank-you page.
Embedding Methods and Compatibility
Forms can be placed on any Elementor page, or embedded via shortcode into posts, sidebars, or footers. The plugin is compatible with any theme, with no need to switch themes; however, Elementor Pro must be installed to use its form components, as the free version of Elementor does not provide a form widget. The demo page needs to be imported via the included content.xml, after which the form templates will appear in the template library. The plugin is fully translatable, and with WPML you can build multilingual sites, maintaining form labels and placeholder text separately. The officially stated supported WordPress versions range from 6.5 to 7.0, compatible with Elementor and Elementor Pro.
