Περιγραφή

TheBooking is a modern booking plugin to manage appointments and reservations, focused on usability and nice-looking user interface.

User friendly booking plugin

With its reactive calendar widget and a step-by-step reservation process, TheBooking allows customers to book your services in a snap!

Availability schedule

TheBooking implements an intuitive weekly planner to define availability hours, vacations and day offs.

Weekly working hours: define the available time intervals for each day of the week.
Closing dates: configure the day offs.
Booking time frame: define (if needed) both reservation opening and closing time independently for any of your services

Reservation form

Define and customize a reservation form for each one of your services. TheBooking ships with a flexible form builder.

Custom fields: add your desired fields in the reservation form to collect the data you need (even files!)
Conditional fields: fields can be configured to show/hide or being required in consequence of values of other fields.
Validation: apply the desired validation rule to any text field, if needed.

Zoom meetings and Google Meet

TheBooking integrates with Zoom and Google Meet to automate meetings creation and management for your services.

Google Calendar 2-ways and 3-ways integration

Connect your Google Calendar to see all your reservations there and to block available timeslots when busy. TheBooking is the only plugin that also allows you to plan the availability directly through Google Calendar (3-way) without the need to use the plugin backend to define time slots and opening hours.

Locations

Each service can have one or more locations that customer will be able to select during the booking process.

Google Maps is also supported.

Notification email messages

TheBooking is very powerful when it comes to build the perfect notification system for your booking system.

Complete stack of notifications for any action: confirm, cancel, reschedule, approve, decline etc.
Differentiate by service: any notification can be configured independently for each service
Dynamic content: use placeholders to put dynamic data inside notification templates, such as service details, reservation details and customer’s data
Advanced email content editor: create amazing HTML email content thanks to the clarity and power of TinyMCE editor

Service restrictions

You can configure services to be booked by registered users only. Services can also be configured to require approval of the bookings.

Data export

Reservations and customers can be conveniently exported in *.CSV format.

Our Guild needed a reservation system for a specialized wood working tool we just purchased. Our Guild operates 7 days a week and every day can have different hours based on the volunteer foremen availability. The Beauty of this plugin is that it works off of Google Calendar where we maintain our Shop Schedule. All other booking programs I tested had a fixed work schedule based on repeating days, weeks or months. This meant we would have to setup each day as a special due to the fact that we do not have a repeating schedule. With TheBooking we just copy our Google Shop Calendar to our reservation calendar and name it accordingly. This plugin author has a premium plugin on CodeCanyon called TeamBooking that appears to be a similar program on steroids. It has the same Google calendar support and great ratings so we will probably buy and use that version.

After installation many bug reports occured, andwhat is worse, there is a problem to uninstal this plugin. Template Twenty Seventeen, no other "strange" plugins.

This is a very interesting appointment/booking plugin. Main thing is that it works as described in the documentation! The integration with Zoom and google calendar/meetings is very useful. The documentation describing how to set these up is very good - just take care to select the correct google calendar... For a 1st edition (June 2021) it has good flexibility of configuration without being overly demanding to set up. Developer has been very responsive to the couple of support requests I've made.
