    How and where do I see the bookings?

The dashboard includes the options to approve, reject or discuss a booking. You can also modify the date and time for each booking. Check out our documentation article to learn more.

    How do I get an appointment scheduler to show up on my page?

    You can embed a simple shortcode which will output the calendar on ony post or page. You can also pre-define a booking form for this calendar. Once user tries to book a slot on this calendar your booking form will hover over the calendar.

    Does the plugin support multiple calendars?

    Yes. You can define an unlimited number of calendars. Each calendar can have it’s own unique booking form, availability timeframe and meeting duration. There are other parameters you can set for each individual calendar.

    Can the admin manually add bookings?

    Yes. Admin can add booking from the plugin backend. This adds the ability to support customer bookings made by the admin. When manually adding bookings all notification will be sent to both admin and user ensuring the user is also notified about the meeting. Check out the user guide to learn more.

    What type of fields can I include in the booking form

    The booking form is totally customizable. You can include as many fields as you need, define which are mandatory and also add a label and description for each. The form generator supports input, textarea checkbox and radio buttons. All can be added and moved by a drag and drop interface.

    Does this plugin support appointment payment

    Yes. You can restrict bookings until payment is made by the customer. You can define for each calendar how much should be charged per booking.

    Can appointments be automatically approved without moderation?

    Yes. Our plugin supports both automatic and moderated booking. You can define which behaviour you would prefer for each calendar. When calendar does not have moderated booking the user will receive a confirmation immediately after completing the booking form.

    If clients must input payment information at the end of the booking, does the payment go through immediately or can it be held until the booking is approved?

    ​There are two options: ​

    If booking is moderated then client will be asked to pay ONLY after moderation is confirmed therefore he will not add his credit card information when making the booking but only once booking is approved. When booking is approved an email will be sent to him to pay for booking and if he fails to to pay within set amount of time booking will be canceled.

    If booking is not moderated then client will be required to pay immediately once making the booking.
