6. Scroll down and find the **block specific dates** section.
7. Click on **Add blocked dates** to block the date of the specific time slot you want blocked and make sure that the start and end time matches the time slot you want closed.

If you add a start and end time that is outside of the time slot you want to block you may end up closing out another time slot.

Example: If you want to block a time slot that is on January 10th from 12:00 - 13:30. Then you would add January 10th -> January 10th from 12:00 - 13:30
