Basically, until curbside hours can be adjusted separately from "hours of operation", one is forced to just change the open hours to whatever your curbside hours are. (So patrons can't make appointments outside of actual curbside hours.)
There is a fun side effect to this... if one doesn't offer curbside pickup every day, you have to set the hours for non-curbside days to closed.
But now you have to take note of your "Charge fines on overdue circulations when closed" settings. If you don't charge overdue fines on closed days... now you're not charging them on non-curbside days either. So you're forced to choose between:
1. Having at least some curbside hours on every "open" day.
2. Having some non-curbside days, while accepting there will be no fines for those days.
3. Having some non-curbside days, but change that setting... and start to charge fines even on actually-closed days, too.
What we really want is for curbside hours to have nothing to do with "open" hours. Because in reality, they can be very different. Especially if one of the main points of curbside is to be able to offer some form of service when you are *not* open, *because* you are not open. (Even if your hours of operation say you are. Really... hours of operation, open to the public hours, and curbside service hours are all potentially different things.)
