Multi-day Services bookings?

    I am seeking a plug-in help with building a scheduling service on a wordpress-based website I am designing.

    I need my customers to select from about 15 services in a ‘shopping cart’ style selection. Some of the services will be a few hours long. Some will be 1, 2 or even 5 days long. How can I have a customer select & schedule a multi-day day service? The services need to be cumulative as well. So if they pick a 4 hour service, a 1 day service and a 3 day service, then the calendar needs to schedule a 4.5 day appointment. The longest appointment needed will not be expected to exceed 2 weeks. I need options for each service to either include a weekend, or span a weekend (i.e 5 days starting Thu with a weekend would be Thu-Mon. 5 days but not working a weekend would be Th-Fri, Mon-Wed). Pricing would be different for weekend work, hence 2 services in this case.

    EXAMPLE:
    Imagine a job booking for a carpenter…

    One day has 8 hours.
    The are are 5 services:

    A. Hang an internal door (2 hours)
    B. Build an understairs cupboard (1 day)
    C. Lay 20sqm of wooden floor (4 hours)
    D. Lay 50sqm of wooden flooe (1 day)
    E. Lay 250sqm of wooden floor (4 days)

    The customer chooses to order two ‘A’, one ”B’, and one ‘E’. Therefore the calendar need to allow him to choose a timeslot, and that timeslot must be 2x2h + 1d + 4d = 5.5d.

    Can I use this plug-in to have customers select and schedule such multiday services?

    Hello.
    Unfortunately if you need to book several services (during same booking process), its means to use something like shopping card functionality ( like selection of one service at one page and other service at other page and check-out at third page), so its does not possible in any versions of plugin (even paid). Sorry.
    In Booking Calendar plugin possible to submit booking for one selected service during one booking process. For booking other service (available in paid versions), you will be need to create new booking.

    Please note, in the Booking Calendar Business Small or higher versions possible to submit the booking for specific time. You can select start time, then select one or more days, and select end time, and submit the booking for these amount of days wit this start end end times of booking. But its different from description in your comment. Sorry.
    Kind Regards.
