## Description
**ReservePro is an online booking and payment system for dance and fitness schools,
sports clubs and courts, camp and course organisers, shooting ranges and driving
schools.** You run your offer, sign-ups and payments in the ReservePro panel; your
customers book online and pay by card, BLIK or Przelewy24 (through Stripe).
This plugin puts that offer on your WordPress site. Visitors see your classes, dates,
prices and free places on your own pages, click “Sign up” and finish the booking
and the payment on your ReservePro booking site.
#### First: a ReservePro account
The plugin is free, but it has nothing of its own to show — it displays widgets
from **your ReservePro account**.
* Create the account yourself, online, at [reservepro.app](https://reservepro.app).
* You can start for free. What is free and what is paid is described in the [price list](https://reservepro.pl/pricing).
* Add your first offer in the ReservePro panel — a class, a court, a course or
an event. Only then is there something to show in WordPress.
Without a ReservePro account the plugin shows nothing.
#### The widgets you get
* **Offer cards** — a photo, the place, the dates, the level, the instructor, the
price and a sign-up button. One card or a grid of cards you choose. (Screenshot
1)
* **Schedule with filters** — all your weekly classes, courses or drop-in sessions
as cards, with filters by location, instructor and level. (Screenshot 2)
* **Weekly calendar** — the same classes as a Monday-to-Sunday timetable of days
and hours.
* **Court and station availability** — a strip of days and a grid of free and taken
hours for every court, lane or station; a click on a free hour opens the booking
with that hour chosen. (Screenshot 3)
* **Sign-up button with free places** — a button for any place on a page, with
a line such as “last places” under it; it turns into “Notify me” when the offer
sells out. The number of free places is also available as plain text.
* **Offer hero** — a large presentation of one course, camp, trip or event with
a photo, the date, the price and a choice of group or date.
* **Instructors with free hours** — instructor cards with a week of free and taken
hours for individual lessons.
* **Cabin calendar** — a monthly availability calendar for a cabin or an apartment.
* **“Looking for a gift?” banner and gift vouchers** — a strip in your colours
that leads to your gift vouchers, and voucher cards in the card grid. (Screenshot
4)
* **QR code** — a code with the link to an offer, for a poster or a leaflet.
* **AI assistant (beta)** — a chat bubble that answers visitors’ questions about
your offers, dates, prices and free places. We are testing it with selected organisers.
It is not part of the standard plans yet; terms and pricing will be announced
after the tests. Want to join? Write to support@reservepro.app.
#### Start in 3 steps
1. **Create a ReservePro account and add an offer** at [reservepro.app](https://reservepro.app).
2. **Install the plugin and click “Connect with ReservePro”** in Settings ReservePro.
You confirm in your ReservePro panel and come back to WordPress with “Connected
to …”. (Screenshot 6)
3. **Add the “ReservePro widget” block** to a page, choose the widget and pick the
offer from a list. The editor shows a live preview. (Screenshot 5)
#### Why it works this way
* **Part of your page, not an iframe.** Your WordPress server fetches the widget
and prints it in the page HTML. Search engines see your real offer, nothing pops
in after the page has loaded, and the widgets work without JavaScript in the
visitor’s browser.
* **It keeps itself up to date.** Free places, “sold out” and waiting-list states
and court availability refresh while the page is open. You never edit the page
after a booking.
* **No API keys.** Connecting takes one click and nothing secret is stored in WordPress—
the widgets show only what is already public on your booking site.
* **Your theme stays as it is.** Widget styles ship with the plugin and apply only
to the widgets, in the colours you set in ReservePro.
#### Block
Add the “ReservePro widget” block in the block editor (search for “ReservePro”),
choose the widget, then pick the offer and the group or date (or the gift voucher)
from the lists in the block settings — no codes to copy. The editor shows a live
preview, and the published page shows exactly the same widget.
#### Shortcode
Prefer shortcodes, or use a page builder? Every widget is also available as a shortcode:
```
[reservepro widget="course-card" offer="offer-slug"]
```
The ready-made shortcode for every widget and offer, with all options, can be copied
from your ReservePro panel (Widgets “WordPress” tab). A `[reservepro]` shortcode
in a Shortcode block can be turned into the block with the block toolbar (Transform).
Widget names: sign-up button (`cta`), offer card (`course-card`), card grid (`grid`),“
Looking for a gift?” banner (`gift-banner`), schedule with filters (`schedule`),
weekly calendar (`calendar`), offer hero (`jambo`), free places label (`remaining`),
court availability (`resources-availability`), cabin calendar (`stay-calendar`),
instructors with hours (`instructor-hours`), QR code (`qrcode`), AI assistant (beta)(`
assistant`).
Examples:
```
[reservepro widget="cta" offer="offer-slug" cta="Sign up"]
[reservepro widget="schedule" preset="classes"]
[reservepro widget="jambo" offer="offer-slug"]
[reservepro widget="grid" offers="offer-a,offer-b"]
[reservepro widget="grid" offers="offer-a,voucher-slug"]
[reservepro widget="gift-banner"]
[reservepro widget="gift-banner" voucher="voucher-slug"]
[reservepro widget="qrcode" offer="offer-slug"]
[reservepro widget="assistant" offer="offer-slug"]
```

### External services
This plugin connects to ReservePro (https://reservepro.app), the booking service
that provides the widgets. Without it the plugin has nothing to show. No request
is made until an administrator clicks “Connect with ReservePro” or enters the booking
site address in Settings ReservePro.
What is sent, when and where:
* **Connect with ReservePro** — when the administrator clicks this button, their
browser is sent to the ReservePro panel (`https://reservepro.app/admin/connect/
wordpress`, or the panel of the booking site already entered) with the address
of the plugin settings screen and a random one-time code. After the administrator
logs in and confirms, the browser comes back with the public organiser identifier
and booking site address, which the plugin then verifies with the connection
check below. No password, key or token is exchanged or stored.
* **Connection check** — when the administrator saves the settings, clicks “Test
connection”, comes back from “Connect with ReservePro”, or (once) when settings
saved by version 1.0 are upgraded: a request from your WordPress server to `<
your booking site>/api/tenant` (for example `https://yourname.reservepro.app/
api/tenant`). It returns the public name and identifier of the organiser.
* **Widget content** — when a page with the `[reservepro]` shortcode or the ReservePro
block is displayed (or previewed in the block editor) and the cached copy is
older than the cache lifetime: a request from your WordPress server to `https://
widgets.reservepro.app/api//widgets/` with the
shortcode parameters (offer, group, date and display options) in the query string.
* **Widget refresh** — while a page with a widget that changes (sign-up button,
free places, court availability, calendars, cards) is open and the browser tab
is visible, the plugin’s script in the visitor’s browser asks your WordPress
site (REST route `/wp-json/reservepro/v1/widget`) for the current widget; your
WordPress server answers from its cache or, when the cached copy is older than
the cache lifetime, makes the “Widget content” request above. The visitor’s browser
does not contact ReservePro for this.
* **Offer list in the block editor** — when an editor opens the settings of the
ReservePro block and the cached list is older than the cache lifetime: a request
from your WordPress server to `https://widgets.reservepro.app/api/offers?tenant
=`. It returns the public list of offers (names, booking
types, groups and dates) shown in the block settings. Together with it: a request
to `/api/voucher-offers`, which returns the public list of
your published gift vouchers (the plugin keeps only their names and addresses)
for the “Looking for a gift?” banner and the card grid. The lists are available
only to logged-in users who can edit posts.
* All server requests carry the IP address of your WordPress server and a User-
Agent header with the plugin version and your site address. No data about your
visitors is sent by these requests.
* **QR code widget and images** — the visitor’s browser loads the QR code image
from `https://widgets.reservepro.app` and the offer photos shown in widgets from
your ReservePro booking site, which shares the visitor’s IP address and browser
information with ReservePro as with any web resource. Links in widgets lead visitors
to your ReservePro booking site.
* **AI assistant widget** (only when you add `[reservepro widget="assistant"]`
or the block with “AI assistant”) — the visitor’s browser loads the script `<
your booking site>/widgets/assistant.js` and, when the visitor opens the bubble
and asks a question, sends the question, the address of the current page and
the optional offer context to `/api/assistant/messages`; the
answer is streamed back. ReservePro processes the question with an AI model to
answer it (see the ReservePro privacy policy) and keeps only statistics of the
conversation (no message texts). Nothing is sent until the visitor types a question.

## Installation
1. Install the plugin from the Plugins screen (Add New search for “ReservePro”),
or upload the ZIP file from your ReservePro panel, and activate it.
2. Go to Settings ReservePro and click “Connect with ReservePro”. Log in to your
ReservePro panel if asked and confirm — you come back to WordPress with “Connected
to …”.
3. Alternatively enter the address of your ReservePro booking site (for example `yourname.
reservepro.app`, or your own connected domain), click “Test connection”, then “
Save Changes”.
4. In the block editor add the “ReservePro widget” block, choose the widget and pick
the offer from the list in the block settings.
5. Or use the shortcode: in the ReservePro panel open Widgets, choose a widget and
an offer, switch to the “WordPress” tab, copy the shortcode and paste it into a
page, a post or a Shortcode block.
## FAQ
### Do I need a ReservePro account?
Yes. The plugin shows widgets of your ReservePro booking site; offers, schedules
and bookings are managed in the ReservePro panel.
### Is ReservePro free?
The plugin is free. ReservePro itself can be started for free; what is free and
what is paid is described in the price list: https://reservepro.pl/pricing
### Is the AI assistant included?
Not yet. The AI assistant is in beta: a chat bubble that answers visitors’ questions
about your offers, dates, prices and free places, which we are testing with selected
organisers. It is not part of the standard plans yet; terms and pricing will be
announced after the tests. If you would like to join the tests, write to support@
reservepro.app.
### Does it need an API key?
No. Widgets show only public offer information that is already visible on your booking
site, so nothing secret is stored in WordPress.
### How do I disconnect the site?
Settings ReservePro “Disconnect”. It clears the organiser, the address and the
widget cache in WordPress; nothing changes in ReservePro.
### Does it need JavaScript on the visitor’s side?
No. The widget HTML is fetched by your WordPress server and printed in the page.
Filters and tabs inside widgets work with CSS only. With JavaScript, a small script
of the plugin keeps the widgets up to date while the page is open and switches the
day of the court availability widget without reloading the page.
### Will it slow down my site?
No. Your WordPress server fetches a widget once and keeps it for a few minutes,
so your pages do not wait for ReservePro on every visit. You can change how long
widgets are kept in Settings ReservePro (5 minutes by default).
### How quickly do changes show on my page?
While a page is open, the widgets refresh by themselves: court availability every
minute, sign-up buttons and free places every two minutes. A visitor who opens the
page sees a copy that is at most a few minutes old.
### Will the widget styles change my theme?
No. All widget styles are limited to the widget containers.
### What happens if ReservePro is unreachable?
The plugin shows the last copy of the widget it fetched successfully, or a plain“
View offer” link if no copy exists yet, and it waits a minute before asking ReservePro
again, so an outage does not slow down your pages.
### Is there a block for the block editor?
Yes — “ReservePro widget”. It lists your widgets, offers and groups, shows a preview
in the editor and renders the same HTML as the shortcode on the page.
### Does it work with page builders?
Yes, wherever shortcodes are supported — the Elementor “Shortcode” widget, the classic
editor and text widgets. In the block editor use the “ReservePro widget” block.
### How do I show widgets in another language?
Widget texts come from your ReservePro booking site. The settings screen of the
plugin is translatable.

## Changelog
#### 1.5.1
* “Looking for a gift?” banner: on wide screens the button keeps its natural width
on the right and no longer squeezes the text; on phones it stays full width under
the text.
* New plugin description and screenshots in the plugin directory.
#### 1.5.0
* New `gift-banner` widget: the “Looking for a gift?” banner — a strip in your
colours with a button that leads to your gift vouchers on your booking site.
Shortcode `[reservepro widget="gift-banner"]` opens the list of all your gift
vouchers; add `voucher="voucher-slug"` to open the purchase page of one voucher.
Optional `title`, `description` and `cta` replace the heading, the text and the
button text. The banner shows only when you have a published gift voucher in
ReservePro.
* Card grid: gift vouchers are added to the grid by their address, the same way
as offers — `[reservepro widget="grid" offers="offer-a,voucher-slug"]`. A voucher
gets a card like an offer card, with a button that leads to its purchase page.
* Block: “Looking for a gift?” banner on the widget list, with the banner target
chosen from a list of your published gift vouchers; in the card grid, published
gift vouchers are on the same list as the offers, marked “(voucher)”.
* Offer cards show an “Available as a gift voucher” label when a published gift
voucher covers the offer.
#### 1.4.3
* Widget CSS (organiser colours and font, filter rules of the schedule and court
availability widgets) is rebuilt from an allowlist before it is added with wp_add_inline_style()
or returned to the refresh script: only rules scoped to ReservePro widget elements,
plain values and a short list of CSS functions — no at-rules, url(), escapes
or comments.
* Cached widget HTML is filtered with wp_kses() again each time it is printed.
#### 1.4.2
* Live widgets: sign-up buttons, free places, court availability, calendars and
cards refresh themselves while the page is open and the tab is visible (court
availability every minute), keeping the visitor’s choices. The plugin’s own script(
assets/js/widgets.js, loaded with wp_enqueue_script() only on pages with such
a widget) asks your WordPress site for the current widget; no remote JavaScript.
* One script and one stylesheet: assets/js/widgets.js is built from the same source
as the ReservePro widget script (one code path for refreshing, keeping choices
and the court day strip), and the plugin’s own rules are now part of assets/css/
widgets.css — a single `reservepro-widgets` style handle instead of two.
* Court availability: a day in the day strip opens on the same page (`?rp_date=`),
or switches in place with JavaScript, instead of opening the raw widget address.
* Widgets that refresh themselves are cached no longer than their refresh interval.
#### 1.4.1
* Widget styles in the block editor preview and the AI assistant script are now
loaded only through the WordPress enqueue API (wp_enqueue_style(), wp_add_inline_style(),
wp_enqueue_script() with the async strategy) — the plugin no longer prints `<
style>` or `
