Tribii Hotel Booking Engine

Description

Put your Tribii booking engine on your WordPress site: a full booking flow with rooms,
dates, extras and card payment, on your own domain and under your own name.

Guests book directly with you. Tribii takes no commission on anything sold through
it, and the money goes straight to your own Stripe account.

Why a plugin and not a snippet

Tribii gives you an embed snippet that works on any website. On WordPress it often does
not survive the journey: the block editor strips <script> tags out of Custom HTML, so
pasting the snippet by hand can silently produce nothing at all — no error, no empty box,
just a page with no booking on it.

This plugin removes that step. Paste your widget ID once and add a block, a shortcode, or
a floating button that follows guests around the site.

What you get

  • Tribii Booking block — the whole booking flow, in any page
  • Tribii Search bar block — a compact dates and guests bar for a hero section
  • Shortcodes [tribii_booking] and [tribii_search] for the Classic editor, Elementor and other page builders
  • A floating booking button on every page, from one checkbox
  • A Verify button that confirms the connection and tells you which property it found

Nothing to maintain

The booking engine itself is served by Tribii, not bundled here. New features, fixes and
translations arrive on their own; this plugin only ever needs updating when WordPress
itself changes.

You need a Tribii account

This plugin connects an existing Tribii property to your site. Creating an account is
free and takes a few minutes: tribii.com. Tribii is free up to 20
rooms, with no commission and no contract.

Privacy and external services

This plugin adds a script tag and an iframe served from app.tribii.com, which is what
renders the booking flow for your guests. Booking data is handled by Tribii under its own
privacy policy and terms.

The plugin itself stores only your widget ID and one checkbox in your WordPress options
table. It sets no cookies and collects nothing about your visitors. When you press
Verify in the settings screen, your site makes one request to
app.tribii.com/api/widget/settings carrying your widget ID, so the screen can show which
property it belongs to.

Source code and build

Everything in this plugin is human-readable except the two block scripts under build/,
which are compiled by @wordpress/scripts (webpack). Their unminified source ships
alongside them in src/, so nothing here is a black box:

  • src/booking/index.js builds build/booking/index.js
  • src/search/index.js builds build/search/index.js

To regenerate them from a checkout:

  1. npm install
  2. npm run build

The exact command is wp-scripts build --webpack-src-dir=src --output-path=build, kept
in the bundled package.json. No other file in the plugin is generated, minified or
obfuscated, and the plugin bundles no third-party libraries.

Screenshots

Blocks

This plugin provides 2 blocks.

  • Tribii Search bar A compact dates and guests search bar that opens the Tribii booking page.
  • Tribii Booking The full Tribii booking page, embedded in this page.

Installation

  1. Install and activate the plugin.
  2. Go to Settings Tribii Booking.
  3. Paste your widget ID. You will find it in Tribii under Settings Integrations.
  4. Press Verify to confirm it found the right property.
  5. Tick the floating button, or add a block to a page.

FAQ

Do I need a Tribii account?

Yes. The plugin connects a property you already have in Tribii. An account is free at
tribii.com.

Where do I find my widget ID?

In Tribii, open Settings and then Integrations. It starts with wid_.

I pressed Verify and it says the domain is not allowed

Tribii can restrict a widget to one website. In Tribii, open Settings Property and
check that the website field is this site’s address.

Can I run more than one property on one WordPress site?

Yes. Set the site-wide widget ID for the main one, then give any individual block or
shortcode its own id="wid_...".

Does it work with my page builder?

Yes. Use the shortcodes; they work anywhere a page builder accepts one.

Does it slow my site down?

The script loads asynchronously and the booking flow loads in an iframe, so it never
blocks your page from rendering. One script is loaded per page however many blocks are on
it.
