FAQ
-
Do my clients need an account?
-
No. They enter their name and email and receive a confirmation by email.
-
Can I change how the booking page looks?
-
Yes. Under Bookira Settings Booking page appearance choose the Bookira card (one step at a time, in the two colours you pick, on a background that follows your theme) or a plain layout that inherits your theme’s colours. Both use your theme’s fonts. You can also set it per page:
[bookira_booking style="theme"]. -
Can I change the booking page title?
-
Yes:
[bookira_booking title="Book a call" subtitle="Pick a time that suits you."]. Use an empty value to hide either line. -
Reminders arrive late. Why?
-
Reminders use WP-Cron, which runs only when your site gets visits. On low-traffic sites, set up a real system cron job that calls
wp-cron.php. -
What happens to my data if I delete the plugin?
-
Your bookings are kept unless you enable Bookira Settings Data Uninstall before deleting the plugin.
