Students draw down minutes from packages assigned by an admin or purchased through WooCommerce, and book appointments against per- instructor availability. Features: * Per-instructor weekly availability (timeblocks) and ad-hoc time off * Configurable package definitions in 30 minute increments up to 4 hours * Admin-assigned prepaid packages with optional expiration date and notes * Optional WooCommerce integration: mark packages as purchasable and auto-grant minutes when an order completes * Frontend month calendar with day-level availability indicators * Weekly time-slot view with status colours (available, booked, time off, blocked by another user, too soon, current) * Mobile single-day scheduler with mini calendar * Per-user appointment booking and cancellation, with a configurable cancellation cutoff * “My Lessons” view with AJAX-powered Future / Past filter and in-place cancellation * Admin Appointments screen with instructor and date-range filters (defaults to the next 3 days, hides cancelled lessons) * Configurable maximum appointment length (admin setting) * Sample-data tool for seeding and wiping a fixed demo dataset * Timezone-aware: each instructor has their own timezone, and end users see times in the site timezone Available shortcodes: * `[sniza_scheduler]` — booking UI (month calendar + week grid) * `[sniza_packages]` — store front for purchasable packages (requires WooCommerce) * `[sniza_my_lessons]` — logged-in user’s upcoming and past lessons with cancel controls ## Screenshots * [[ * Admin area where users can select multiple themes and even custom coloring of how appointment scheduler look on frontend * [[ * Monthly availability calendar with the weekly slot grid in color theme 1 * [[ * Monthly availability calendar with the weekly slot grid in color theme 2 * [[ * Monthly availability calendar with the weekly slot grid in color theme 3 * [[ * Packages purchase page with one package available for purchase for now * [[ * Confirmation before scheduling an appointment * [[ * My Lessons page with AJAX-powered Future / Past filter. * [[ * Admin creating packages and assigning woocommerce products to the packages * [[ * Admin screen for managing instructors, timeblocks, packages and assignments. * [[ ## Installation 1. Upload the `sniza-scheduler` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`. 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** screen in WordPress. 3. Open **Sniza Appointment Scheduler** in the admin sidebar and add at least one instructor, one weekly timeblock, and one package definition. 4. Either assign a package to a logged-in user from **Assign Packages**, or — with WooCommerce active — mark a package as purchasable, link it to a product, and let users buy it via `[sniza_packages]`. 5. Place the `[sniza_scheduler]` shortcode on any page to render the booking UI, and`[ sniza_my_lessons]` on another page so users can see and cancel their lessons. ## FAQ ### Does the plugin send data to any external service? No. All data stays in your WordPress database. The plugin makes no outbound HTTP calls. ### What happens when I delete the plugin? The plugin’s tables and options are removed via `uninstall.php`. Deactivation alone leaves the data in place. ### Can guests book appointments? No. Booking requires a logged-in WordPress user with an active package assignment. ### Is WooCommerce required? No. WooCommerce is optional. Without it, admins assign packages manually via **Assign Packages**. With WooCommerce active, packages flagged as purchasable can be sold through a linked product and minutes are granted automatically when the order completes. ### Can users cancel their own lessons? Yes, from the `[sniza_my_lessons]` page, as long as the start time is at least the configured cancellation cutoff in the future (8 hours by default). Cancelling restores the unused minutes to the source package. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Sniza Appointment Scheduler” is open source software.
