 * Per-category lead time rules; the longest matching lead time applies to mixed
   carts
 * Daily cutoff time that moves the earliest delivery date by one day
 * Configurable working days and blocked dates
 * Slot display style: grid buttons or dropdown
 * Automatic checkout positions or manual placement with a shortcode
 * Optional cutoff countdown message at checkout
 * Customer rescheduling from My Account with attempt limit, minimum days before
   delivery and allowed order statuses
 * Delivery reminder email sent to the customer before the delivery date
 * Email to the customer when an administrator changes the delivery date
 * Email to the administrator when a customer reschedules a delivery
 * Order list column, order edit meta box and change log
 * Integration with WPC Estimated Delivery Date (wpced) when that plugin is active
 * JSON import and export of settings

### Date & Calendar Rules

Control which dates customers can select based on your operating schedule.

 * **Minimum Lead Time:** Set the minimum number of days between the order date 
   and the earliest delivery date (for example 0 for same day, 1 for next day).
 * **Maximum Days Ahead:** Limit how far in the future a delivery date can be selected(
   for example 30 days).
 * **Daily Cutoff Time:** Orders placed after the cutoff time move the earliest 
   available delivery date forward by one day.
 * **Working Days:** Choose the days of the week on which deliveries are available.
 * **Blocked Dates:** Block specific dates, such as public holidays or maintenance
   days. Each blocked date can have an internal label.
 * **Max Orders Per Day:** Set a limit on the total number of delivery orders per
   calendar day. Dates that reach the limit are blocked in the calendar.

### Time Slots & Capacity

Divide the delivery day into time windows and limit how many orders each window 
accepts.

 * **Custom Time Slots:** Define slots with a name, start time and end time (for
   example “Morning (08:00 – 12:00)”).
 * **Slot Capacity:** Set the maximum number of orders per slot per day. When a 
   slot reaches its limit it is shown as “Full” at checkout and cannot be selected.
 * **Slot Days:** Limit a slot to specific days of the week.
 * **Slot Surcharges:** Add a fee to a slot, either a fixed amount or a percentage
   of the cart subtotal. The fee is added to the order at checkout.
 * **Restrict to Categories:** Show a slot only when the cart contains products 
   from selected categories.
 * **Restrict to Shipping Zones & Methods:** Show a slot only for selected shipping
   zones or shipping methods. A slot is shown when any selected zone or method matches.
   Slots refresh when the customer changes the shipping method at checkout. Leave
   empty to allow all shipping options.

### Per-Category Lead Time Rules

Set different lead times for different product categories.

 * **Category Rules:** Assign a lead time in days to one or more product categories(
   for example 1 day for standard products and 3 days for made-to-order products).
 * **Mixed Carts:** When a cart contains products from several categories with rules,
   the longest matching lead time is used. The global minimum lead time is the lower
   limit.
 * **Category Selector:** Categories are selected with a searchable dropdown in 
   the settings.

### Customer Rescheduling & Email Notifications

Let customers change a delivery date without contacting the store, and send emails
about delivery changes.

 * **My Account Rescheduling:** Customers can view their scheduled deliveries and
   choose a new date and time slot from their WooCommerce account.
 * **Reschedule Controls:** Set the maximum number of reschedules per order and 
   how many days before the delivery date a customer must reschedule at the latest.
 * **Allowed Order Statuses:** Choose which order statuses allow rescheduling (for
   example Processing and On Hold).
 * **Delivery Reminder Email:** Send a reminder email to the customer a set number
   of days before the delivery date. The reminder is scheduled with WP-Cron.
 * **Date Change Email:** Send an email to the customer when an administrator changes
   the delivery date of an order.
 * **Administrator Email:** Optionally notify the administrator when a customer 
   reschedules a delivery.

### Checkout Display & Placement

Choose how and where the selector appears at checkout.

 * **Slot Display Style:** Show time slots as grid buttons or as a dropdown.
 * **Checkout Positions:** Place the selector before the payment methods, before
   or after the order notes, before the customer details, or select **None** for
   manual placement.
 * **Shortcode:** Use `[wpcdt_picker]` (aliases: `[wpcdt_delivery_picker]` and `[
   wpcdt_delivery_date_picker]`) to place the selector at a custom location on a
   classic checkout page.
 * **Countdown Message:** Show a message such as “Order within 02:45:10 for delivery
   on Friday, Dec 12”. The text can be customized with the `[TIME]` and `[DATE]`
   placeholders.
 * **Required Fields:** Choose whether a delivery date and a time slot are required
   to place an order.

### Import / Export

 * **JSON Import / Export:** Export delivery rules, time slots and blocked dates
   to JSON and import them on another site.

### Use Cases

#### Delivery Scheduling & Calendar

**1. Same-day delivery with a cutoff time**
 Set Minimum Lead Time to 0 days, Working
Days to Monday–Saturday, and Daily Cutoff Time to 12:00. Customers ordering before
12:00 can select today. Customers ordering after 12:00 are offered tomorrow as the
earliest date.

**2. No weekend deliveries**
 Uncheck Saturday and Sunday in Working Days. Weekends
are disabled in the calendar.

**3. Holidays and closure dates**
 Add dates such as 2026-12-25 or 2026-01-01 to
Blocked Dates so customers cannot select them.

#### Time Slot Capacity & Surcharges

**4. Morning and evening slots with capacity limits**
 Create “Morning (08:00 – 
12:00)” with Max Orders / Day = 15 and “Evening (17:00 – 20:00)” with Max Orders/
Day = 10. After 15 morning orders for a date, the morning slot is shown as “Full”
for that date.

**5. Express delivery surcharge**
 Create an “Express” slot with a surcharge of 
10.00 or 15%. The fee is added to the cart total at checkout.

**6. Slots for chilled goods**
 Restrict a “Refrigerated Transport” slot to the “
Frozen Foods” and “Perishables” categories. The slot is shown only when the cart
contains products from these categories.

#### Per-Category Lead Time

**7. Mixed cart lead time**
 Assign a 1-day lead time to “Standard Items” and a 
4-day lead time to “Custom Engraved Gifts”. When a customer buys both in one order,
the 4-day lead time applies.

#### Customer Rescheduling & Notifications

**8. Rescheduling from My Account**
 Enable Customer Rescheduling with Maximum Reschedule
Attempts = 2 and Minimum Days Before Delivery = 1. Customers can change the delivery
date up to two times, at least one day before the scheduled date.

**9. Delivery reminder email**
 Enable the delivery reminder with Send Reminder 
X Days Before = 1. The customer receives an email one day before the scheduled delivery
date.

### Compatibility

 * **Checkout:** The selector is displayed on the classic WooCommerce checkout. 
   The WooCommerce Checkout block is not supported.
 * **WPC Estimated Delivery Date (wpced):** When wpced is active, the delivery date
   chosen by the customer replaces the estimated date.

## FAQ

### Can customers check out without selecting a delivery date?

Yes. Turn off **Delivery Date Required** in Settings if selecting a delivery date
is optional.

### What happens when a time slot reaches its maximum number of orders?

The slot is shown as “Full” at checkout and cannot be selected for that date.

### How does the cutoff time work?

If you set a cutoff time of 14:00, an order placed after 14:00 has its earliest 
available delivery date moved forward by one day.

### Can I place the selector somewhere else on the checkout page?

Yes. Set **Checkout Position** to `None` and add the shortcode `[wpcdt_picker]` 
where you want the selector to appear on a classic checkout page.

### Does the plugin work with the WooCommerce Checkout block?

No. The selector is displayed on the classic checkout.
