Hello.
If you need to have this feature only for the 1 booking resource, so then it’s means that you need to customize the different booking form with start and end times selections or time entering. It’s possible in the Booking Calendar Business Medium or higher versions. Check more about this feature here: https://wpbookingcalendar.com/overview/#custom-forms
Watch it in this video guide https://wpbookingcalendar.com/help/custom-booking-forms-video-overview/
This forum is only for Booking Calendar Free version. So about the paid versions contact here https://wpbookingcalendar.com/contact/
Kind Regards.
Thanks for your quick answer.
I already had figure out that I could add “start and end times selections” to a specific form. That is what I met by “predefined slots” in my previous post.
What I want is to provide the users with the flexibility of choosing themself the start and end time (or start time and duration). That they could choose “anytime” they like.
As I said this is typical of a meeting room where people would reserve only the duration they need at the time they need to use the room (not predefined time-slots like appointments).
An idea: If I add to the form “start time” and “duration” fields could that be applied to the reservation ? Could it be dynamicly convert to the “rangetime” ? And check that there is no other reservation overlapping.
Hello.
In the Booking Calendar Business Small or higher versions possible to use these shortcodes at the Booking > Settings > Form page:
Enter time: [starttime] - [endtime]
It’s will provide 2 text fields, where visitors can enter any start and end time in 24 hour format.
Also it’s possible to use the shortcode like this:
<p>Start Time:<br />[select starttime "08:00" "08:30" "09:00" "09:30" "10:00" "10:30" "11:00" "11:30" "12:00" "12:30" "13:00" "13:30" "14:00" "14:30" "15:00" "15:30" "16:00" "16:30" "17:00" "17:30" "18:00" "18:30" "19:00" "19:30" "20:00" "20:30" "21:00"]</p>
<p>Service:<br />[select durationtime "Service 1@@02:00" "Service 2@@04:00" "Service 3@@06:00"]</p>
For selection of the start time and selection of duration of time.
etc…
Please note if you will make the booking for the specific timeslot, this timeslot become unavailable for the other visitors for that selected date in current specific calendar.
Please watch more in this video: https://wpbookingcalendar.com/help/booking-calendar-video-timeslots/
You can use one”timerange” (timeslots) or “start time” and”end time” selections or”starttime” and “duration”of time selections shortcodes or even start time and end time entering shortcodes. Please read more about the booking form fields configuration here https://wpbookingcalendar.com/help/booking-form-fields/
You can test the bookings for the specific time-slots in action on the live demo of Business Small version (which is configured by default for the bookings of specific time-slots) here: https://bs.wpbookingcalendar.com/ Other live demo you will need to reconfigure.
Thanks for your very complete answer.
I will now be able to test these features and see if it does do the job for us.
