Visibility and Publishing a Listing

A Haven listing is publicly visible and able to take bookings only when all of the following are true:

The property has the required setup fields (photos, title, description, location, pricing).
You are on an active paid plan (not Free).
Your Stripe payouts account is connected and effectively verified.
The property is not archived.

If any one of these is missing, the listing is private — only you can see it.

There is no separate "publish / unpublish" toggle for an individual listing. Visibility is derived from the four gates above. To take a listing off the market, archive it (see Delete or Archive a Listing). To pause every listing at once, the levers are your plan and Stripe status.

The Visibility section in Edit Listing

Open any property's Edit Listing page and choose Visibility in the section sidebar. The page is the single status board for "Is this listing live?". It has three blocks:

1. Bookability checklist

The top card lists every property-level field that is blocking bookability — photos, title, description, location, pricing. Each row links directly to the section that fixes it. A progress wheel shows how many checks remain.

This is the exact same checklist surfaced by the "Not bookable" pill in the sidebar; opening Visibility just shows it inline so you can work through it without leaving the page.

2. Plan

If you're on Free, the Plan card shows the inline plan picker (Essentials / Pro, monthly or yearly) and the listing is private until you choose a paid plan.
If you're on a paid plan, the Plan card shows your current plan with a Manage plan link to Settings → Billing & Subscription (/host?tab=billing).

3. Payouts (Stripe)

If your Stripe account is missing or unverified, the Stripe card prompts you to connect or finish onboarding. Until Stripe is verified, no listing on your account can accept money — therefore no listing can be public.
Once Stripe is verified, the card shows a green check.

What "publicly visible" actually means

When all gates are green:

The listing's Single Property Site is reachable on the public web (its custom URL and/or custom domain).
The listing appears on any Multi-Unit Site that includes it.
The listing is discoverable from the Haven listings page in the public marketing nav.
Guests can request or instantly book, depending on your booking rules.

When any gate is red:

The Single Property Site renders a private placeholder for everyone except you (the owner).
The listing is hidden from Multi-Unit Sites.
The listing does not appear in any public index.

"How do I unpublish one listing without touching the others?"

The answer is archive — that is the only per-listing off switch. Archive:

Removes the listing from all public surfaces immediately.
Stops new bookings.
Removes the per-listing billing add-on.
Keeps existing reservations intact.
Is fully reversible — unarchive any time.

See Delete or Archive a Listing for the full flow, PMS-synced edge case, and billing impact.

"How do I pause everything at once?"

Two account-wide levers:

Cancel or downgrade to Free — every listing immediately becomes private (existing confirmed reservations are unaffected). Re-subscribe to bring everything back.
Disconnect or pause Stripe — bookings stop processing across all listings until Stripe is reconnected and verified.

Plan changes are done from Settings → Billing & Subscription; see Multi-Property Billing.

Common scenarios

Scenario	What to do
New listing, can't figure out why it's not public	Open Visibility — the checklist names the exact blocker
Property is sold or off the market	Archive the listing
Pausing for a long renovation	Archive (stops billing too); unarchive when ready
Taking a quick block (a weekend, a month)	Don't archive — block dates on the Calendar instead
Want one listing visible only via direct link, not in the index	Today the only "private link" path is a custom URL with a non-obvious slug; Haven does not have a per-listing "hidden listing" mode beyond archive
Hide everything because I'm taking a long break from hosting	Downgrade to Free, or archive each listing individually
