Hi mentolnet,
1. No, the plugin doesn’t assign bookings to tables or manage capacity in any way. It’s designed to be a simple system for accepting and confirming bookings, but you’ll probably still need to manage bookings elsewhere.
2. If you want bookings to be automatically confirmed, you can add the following code (either to your functions.php or wrapped in a small plugin that you activate):
add_filter( 'rtb_insert_booking_data', 'mentolnet_confirm_new_bookings' ), 10, 2 );
function mentolnet_confirm_new_bookings( $args, $booking ) {
$args['post_status'] = 'confirmed';
return $args;
}
3. You should see a calendar date picker and time picker appear in the booking form on the frontend. If you don’t, there’s probably a JavaScript error of some kind that is interfering on your site. If you send me a link I’ll take a look to see if I can spot any issues.
Thank you for your answer. I´ll have to use something else, i am afraid.
No problem, I understand. There are a bunch of more complex bookings platforms in the repository. If none of them work for you, you might look at the WooCommerce Bookings addon. It may not be quite right for restaurants, but I’m pretty sure it offers capacity management.
Hi mentolnet,
For question 1 I can suggest you to try ReDi Restaurant Reservation plugin
It has a limit of clients who can make a booking for the same hour.
