Appointment Hour Booking — Плагин WordPress бронирования

Описание

Appointment Hour Booking is a WordPress plugin for creating booking forms for appointments with a start time and a defined duration over a schedule. The start time is visually selected by the end user from a set of start times calculated based in the «open» hours and service duration. The duration/schedule is defined in the «service» selected by the customer. Each calendar can have multiple services with different duration and prices.

This plugin is useful for different cases like booking of medical services where services with different duration and prices may be available, for personal training sessions, for booking rooms for events, for reserving language classes or other type of classes and other type of services/resources booking where start times are selected and the availability is automatically managed using the defined service duration to avoid double-booking (the booked time is blocked once the booking is completed).

Appointment Hour Booking can be used for:

Booking services or resources: Define schedule, open hours, services, prices and durations and let the calendar plugin manage the schedule.

Sample cases: Medical services, personal training, resource allocation, booking rooms, classes, etc…

Для услуг может быть определена максимальная пропускная способность (например, число потребителей, которые могут записаться/получить услугу одновременно). По умолчанию пропускная способность равна 1. Если пропускная способность установлена на уровне 1, временной слот блокируется, как только кто-то записался на это время. Если пропускная способность больше 1 (например, 10), временной слот будет заблокирован после того, как пропускная способность окажется исчерпанной (например, после записи 10 человек). Подробно эта функция описана в статье https://apphourbooking.dwbooster.com/blog/2019/01/24/bookings-for-multiple-persons/

The Troubleshoot Area

Use the troubleshot if you are having problems with special or non-latin characters. In most cases changing the charset to UTF-8 through the option available for that in the troubleshot area will solve the problem.

You can also use this area to change the script load method if the booking calendar isn’t appearing in the public website.

The Notification Emails

The notification emails with the appointment data entered in the booking form can sent in «Plain Text» format (default) or in «HTML» format. If you select «HTML» format, be sure to use the BR or P tags for the line breaks into the text and to use the proper formatting.

Exporting Appointments to CSV / Excel Files

The appointment data can be exported to a CSV file (Excel compatible) to manage the data from other applications. That option is available from the «bookings list», the appointments can be filtered by date and by the text into them, so you can export just the needed appointments to the CSV file.

Other Versions and Features

The free version published in this WordPress directory is a fully-functional version for accepting appointments as indicated in the plugin description. There are also commercial versions with additional features, for example:

  • Ability to process forms/appointments linked to payment process (PayPal, Stripe, Skrill, …)
  • Form builder for a visual customization of the booking form
  • Addons with multiple additional features

Платежи, проводимые в плагине, соответствуют требованиям SCA (Strong Customer Authentication), совместимы с новой Директовой Евросоюза по платёжным сервисам (Payment services (PSD 2) — Directive (EU)), которая вступила в полную силу 14 сентября 2019 года

Вам лишь необходимо задать имя пользовательского класса в значении этого атрибута (имя класса согласно вашим предпочтениям), например, myclass, и потом определить новый класс в css-файле вашего сайта; или добавить необходимые стили в «Customization area >> Add Custom Styles» (Кастомизация >> Добавить пользовательские стили) (внизу страницы, содержащей список календарей)

.myclass{ display:none; }

Q: The form doesn’t appear. Solution?

A: If the form doesn’t appear in the public website (in some cases only the captcha appear) then change the script load method to direct, this is the solution in most cases.

That can be changed in the «troubleshoot area» located below the list of calendars/items.

Q: I’m not receiving the emails with the appointment data.

A: Try first using a «from» email address that belongs to your website domain, this is the most common restriction applied in most hosting services.

If that doesn’t work please check if your hosting service requires some specific configuration to send emails from PHP/WordPress websites. The plugin uses the settings specified into the WordPress website to deliver the emails, if your hosting has some specific requirements like a fixed «from» address or a custom «SMTP» server those settings must be configured into the WordPress website.

Q: Non-latin characters aren’t being displayed in the form. There is a workaround?

A: Use the «throubleshoot area» to change the character encoding.

Q: Can I display a list with the appointments?

A: A list with the appointments set on the calendar can be displayed by using this shortcode in the page where you want to display the list:

[CP_APP_HOUR_BOOKING_LIST]

… it can be also customized with some parameters if needed, example:

CP_APP_HOUR_BOOKING_LIST from=»today» to=»today +30 days» fields=»DATE,TIME,email» calendar=»1″]

… the «from» and «to» are used to display only the appointments / bookings on the specified period. That can be either indicated as relative days to «today» or as fixed dates.

The styles for the list are located at the end of the file «css/stylepublic.css»:

.cpabc_field_0, .cpabc_field_1, .cpabc_field_2, …

Clear the browser cache if the list isn’t displayed in a correct way (to be sure it loads the updated styles).

Вы также можете добавить необходимые стили в области «Customization area >> Add Custom Styles» (внизу страницы, которая содержит перечень календарей)

Могу ли я отслеживать реферальную конверсию?

Да, для этих целей вы можете использовать плагин CP Referrer and Conversion Tracking, который уже включает автоматическую интеграцию с этим плагином.

Q: Are the forms GDPR compliant?

A: In all plugin versions you can turn off IP tracking to avoid saving that user info. Full GDPR compliant forms can be built using the commercial versions of the plugin.

I don't do reviews. Almost never, but I'll make an exception here because the product is exceptional and very flexible, especially if you have some knowlege of HTML and CSS. The support was not only timely but helpful in guiding us to a solution that will work for us. We ultimately requested a customization and found that it was unbelievably inexpensive, and the changes were made within a few days. After reviewing the changes, which were implemented exactly to our specification, we requested another small change that we expected to pay for but they made the change gratis and provided the new version the next day. Thanks to Karen, the Codepeople support/technical agent who helped us through.
