## Description

Built for property websites whose buyers are somewhere else.

Some of the people looking at your listings cannot come and see them. They are working
in Dubai, studying in Toronto, or buying a home back in a country they left. They
will not fly in on the strength of six photographs, and they cannot work out what
six in the evening your time means where they are.

Tourpoint does two things about that.

**A walkthrough video that respects the visitor’s data.** Paste a YouTube, Vimeo
or uploaded video link onto a listing. The page shows the property’s own photograph
with a play button over it, and the video downloads only when someone presses play.
Embedding a player on page load costs around half a megabyte and a dozen requests
before the visitor has decided to watch — on a metered mobile connection that is
the visitor’s money, spent without asking.

**Viewing requests that do the timezone arithmetic.** The buyer picks a day and 
an hour _in their own time_, from the countries buyers actually call from. The form
shows them, as they choose, what that hour is where you are. You see the appointment
converted into your timezone, with theirs beside it. Daylight saving on both sides
is handled — including the fortnight each spring when two countries disagree about
what time it is.

You set the hours you take calls, in your own time, and nothing outside them can
be booked. A buyer in Los Angeles choosing eight in the evening is choosing six 
the next morning in Nairobi, and the form says so rather than putting it in your
calendar.

The call itself happens on WhatsApp. That is deliberate: in-browser video calling
needs relay servers somebody has to pay for and burns the visitor’s data, and a 
buyer on a weak connection in another country is exactly who this is for. One tap
opens the chat.

#### Works with your theme

There are no templates to edit and nothing to override. The section takes its typeface
and text size from the theme around it, so it looks like part of your site rather
than a plugin dropped into it. Only the accent colour is yours to set, and it is
one colour picker.

Put it on the page in whichever way suits your site: automatically under the listing,
as a block, or with the `[tourpoint]` shortcode.

#### Nothing is lost to a mail problem

Every request is stored in WordPress, under **Viewings**, whether the notification
email arrives or not. WordPress cannot reliably send mail on its own, and a booking
that exists only in an email that never sent is a customer you never knew you had.

#### What it does not do

No calendars, no availability rules, no payments, no reminders, no syncing. If you
need a full appointment system, use one. This does one thing: it gets a buyer in
another country from a listing to a time you have both agreed on.

#### Privacy

Nothing is sent anywhere except the video provider you chose, and only after the
visitor presses play. No tracking, no analytics, no external fonts, no calls home.
The plugin makes no outbound request at all on its own behalf.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate.
 2. Go to **Settings  Tourpoint**.
 3. Tick the post type your listings live in, add your WhatsApp number, and check the
    timezone is right.
 4. Edit a listing. There is a **Walkthrough video** box in the sidebar — paste a link.

That is the whole setup.

## FAQ

### Does it include actual video calling?

No, deliberately. Browser video calling needs relay servers you would have to pay
for, and it burns the visitor’s data on a mobile connection. This books the appointment;
the call happens on WhatsApp, which everyone already has and which survives a weak
signal far better than a browser.

### Will it work with my real-estate theme?

Yes. It does not replace any template and does not depend on any theme. It works
with Houzez, RealHomes, WP Residence, a custom theme, or plain posts.

### Which post types can it be used on?

Any public post type. Tick the ones you want on the settings screen.

### Where do the videos come from?

YouTube, YouTube Shorts, Vimeo, or a video file in your own media library. Paste
whatever link the app gave you; the plugin works out the rest.

### Does it slow my site down?

The stylesheet and script load only on pages that actually show the section, and
together they are a few kilobytes. The video itself downloads nothing until pressed.

### What if a buyer picks an hour I am asleep?

They cannot. You set the hours you take calls on the settings screen, in your own
time. The form names those hours, shows the buyer live what their chosen hour is
where you are, and refuses anything that falls outside them — the check happens 
on the server, so it holds even if somebody submits the form without a browser.

### Can I change the countries in the list?

Yes, with the `tourpoint_zones` filter. The documentation has an example.

### What if my site cannot send email?

Every request is stored in WordPress under **Viewings**. The email is a convenience,
never the record.
