Per-property message templates

Why per-property

Properties differ enough that one global template doesn't fit:

• Different door-PIN-delivery format per property
• Different parking instructions (some have garage, some street, some both)
• Different WiFi sign-on details
• Different building-entry quirks (intercom code, lift card, gate ringer)

A global template forced operators to either (a) handle these via placeholders (which got long and brittle) or (b) accept generic copy that's wrong for half the properties.

each property has its own template set; operator edits per-property without spillover.

Where the editor lives

V28 → Properties → pick property → Message Templates tab.

Per-property mode:

• Each template slug carries a per-language body.
• Edit one property's checkin_instructions without touching the others.
• Diff view: "show me what's different between Vydrica and Prístavná" → highlights divergent placeholders.

Inheritance

For templates an operator hasn't customized per-property, the platform falls back to the global template (still present, accessible via the V28 Message Templates editor). So operator can:

1. Author a sensible default at the global level.
2. Override per-property only where needed.

When you open the per-property editor, templates fall into two groups:

• Overridden (per-property body in effect)
• Inherited (using global default — listed with an Override button)

Picker shows the right templates

The V28 Inbox REPLY WITH TEMPLATE dropdown previously showed templates with property scope NO TEMPLATES · N OTHER because propertyFkId was a string vs the filter expected number. Fixed; the picker now shows the right per-property templates.

If a property has no per-property templates AND no global default for a slug, the picker shows the inherited fallbacks marked (inherited).

Removing from Operations

The legacy /operations/messageTemplates global table is removed post-.

If you used to bounce to legacy /operations/messageTemplates, that surface no longer exists in V28 navigation. Use Properties → pick property OR Properties → All Properties.
