Each location should be connected to one specific employee, so if you have multiple locations you need to create multiple employees and connect them with those locations. Once you connect them, in the employees settings you can set working hours for each employee and that will be set for each location (shop) as well. After that, go to the page, you will see the button for adding our shortcode and option Preselect Booking Parameters, once you check it you will see dropdowns where you can select Location. With that option you can set a Booking Calendar for each location separately. More about placing the shortcodes you can read here, and about setting the working hours you can read here.
Thx for your reply! I want to use Amelia for an online action that will run during only one week. How can I activate this week only in the calendar and block the other months and days?
You are welcome. Currently, this is possible by adding days off before and after that week (you will find this setting on the Settings page and in the Employees profile). However, we are preparing a new version with Special Days feature where you will be able to set this more easily. We will probably release it very soon, so you will be able to delete the working hours and just add a week in the Special Days feature with working hours and service and in the calendar it will be displayed like you need.
That's perfect! Can't wait till this feature will be available :)!
I've some other problems now...
So, we want to make a booking tool for a national action for one product (customized earplugs), available in different shops. Each shop needs to have his own calendar with his own opening hours (the opening hours are different for each shop).
The problem is that people have to select first the service, but as we sell only one product we only have on service (see picture in attachment). Can we skip this first step and set the calender as start screen?
Last question: is it possible to work with images as radio buttons (instead of the bullets)? How can I change this in the /html/css?
We have released a new version with Special Days feature, you can check it now.
Do you want your clients to choose a shop? Whether you have created shops in the place where employees are (because for each employee you can set the working hours) or you created them in the place where Locations are, you can choose in the shortcode to show just the calendar of one shop. I suppose that you have the separate page for each shop so you can place a shortcode for each one? More about the shortcode options you can read on this page, and on the two pages above it.
As for you second question, unfortunately something like this isn't possible at the moment.
Heroes! I'll check out the Special Days feature now!
No, the clients will choose their shop with a Google Maps-locator on the website. When they selected the shop, they will go to the page of that shop with the booking calendar. So, we will have a separate page for each shop where we will place the shortcode of each shop. I'll try this out :)
You can find it on the employee's profile, just open the employee and there you will see four tabs, the last one is Special Days.
As for the locations and shortcodes, that is great, then you can create each location in our plugin (on the location or employees page), and add a shortcode to the page for each location, and since that shortcode will have just one location (or employee if you create it on the place where employee is), and just one service, only the calendar will be shown right away.
Just one note, in order to have working hours set for each location you either need to create employee for each location or to create on the place where employee should be the name of the location. Then, once you go to create shortcode, you will see Preselect Booking Parameters option, once you check it, you will see the options to choose location, employee etc. For each page you will choose different employee and the shortcode will have different ID and show different working hours (please take a look at the attachment below).
Maybe this seems a little bit complicated but if you have more questions do not hesitate to ask and I will provide more explanations.
Ok, my mistake! It works, thx :D! But... I selected 15, 16 & 18 april as specials days. So, I want that the calendar only shows the month April. Now, it starts withJanuary, but you can't select these days.
How can I set 'April' as start point for the calendar?
Sorry for the mess here ;) So, just to be clear. I've two question. You can ignore my other posts:

The fields 'first name', 'laste name', 'e-mail' and 'phone' in the form are blocked. I can't add my name, e-mailadress... in these fields (see attachment). How can I change this?
Everything is clear.I apologize for the late reply, our working time is from Monday to Friday from 10am to 6pm CET, and I needed some time to check with developers the first option that you need.
1. This is not possible with the core plugin at the moment. However, we have investigated this and we can add a custom code for you so you can have this like you need. Since we are preparing a new version at the moment, the best way for you is to wait that update and after the update we can add a custom code for you. Because if we send you before the update that custom code would be lost, since it will not be in our 1.4.2 version because it is already prepared, but we will include this for 1.4.3 version so every next update you will have this option.
2. This is happening because you are logged in the WordPress, once you log out the fields will be blank and enabled for entry.
Thank you for this good suggestion. The next major feature that we will work on is Event Booking and Event list view, so maybe this will suit you the best, at the moment, I am glad that we find a good solution.
Not yet, unfortunately, we were waiting for a design a little more than planned, so we will need more time to implement this feature. Now we are preparing a new dashboard and service page and after that we will work on it.
1. Our action starts on 29 april and ends on 5 may. People have to select a timeslot on one of these days. The problem is that the the calendar shows April as start screen, but you can't select the dates of May on this screen. You first have to click on the arrow to go to the next month. Isn't it possible to make the days of the next month also clickable onthe April-screen (see pictures in attachment)?
2. Is it possible to highlight the clickable dates? It would be wonderful if we could put the clickable dates in bold and in another color, because now the clickable dates aren't really that outstanding.
2. Our form is getting very long. Can we split it into two pages (see attachment)?
We can change this for you but not entirely like you need. We can change the color of those days to look exactly the same as the one in April, and we can maybe make those days more visible. However, we cannot make them to work with one click as the dates in April.
As for the form question, unfortunately it is not possible to split this form into two pages.
Just to give you more information. In attachment, you cand find the design of my calendar. Can you make the clickable days more visible? And can you also make the styling of the dates in May exactly the same as the ones in April :)?
Hi,
How can I create different calendars for different locations (shops)? Each shops has different opening days and hours.
Greetings!
Hi Bert,

Each location should be connected to one specific employee, so if you have multiple locations you need to create multiple employees and connect them with those locations.

Hi Isidora,
Awesome! Thx a lot for the great support :) Will do!
Hi Bert,
You are welcome, I am glad that we could help.
Best regards.
Hi Isidora,
I updated the plug-in. Now, the first month that is shown is April. Perfect! Thx a lot :)
Hi Bert,
You are welcome.

Hi Isidora,
That sounds perfect :) ! Do you know when this feature/update will be available?
Greetings,
Bert
Hi Bert,
I cannot say for sure since we are at the begging and we have just started working on a design. I can notify you once we release it?
Best regards.
Hi Isidora,
Yes, that would be perfect :)! Thx!
Bert
Hi Isidora,
Do you have already an update about this :)? (Event Booking and Event list view)
Hi Bert,
Not yet, unfortunately, we were waiting for a design a little more than planned, so we will need more time to implement this feature. Now we are preparing a new dashboard and service page and after that we will work on it.
Best regards.
Hi Isidora,
No problem, thx for the update!
I have some more questions.
1. Our action starts on 29 april and ends on 5 may. People have to select a timeslot on one of these days. The problem is that the the calendar shows April as start screen, but you can't select the dates of May on this screen. You first have to click on the arrow to go to the next month. Isn't it possible to make the days of the next month also clickable onthe April-screen (see pictures in attachment)?
2. Is it possible to highlight the clickable dates? It would be wonderful if we could put the clickable dates in bold and in another color, because now the clickable dates aren't really that outstanding.
2. Our form is getting very long. Can we split it into two pages (see attachment)?

As for the form question, unfortunately it is not possible to split this form into two pages.

Hi Isidora,
It would be perfect if you can change the days (more visible - the same as in May). How can I do that?
Hi Isidora,
Just to give you more information. In attachment, you cand find the design of my calendar. Can you make the clickable days more visible? And can you also make the styling of the dates in May exactly the same as the ones in April :)?
Hi Bert,
You can use this CSS to show the days in May exactly the same as the ones in April:
<style>.c-day {opacity: 1 !important;}</style>Please let me know is everything OK once you use this CSS.
Best regards.
Thx! I'll try it :) Can I also change the color of the clickable dates in April?
Hi Bert,
You are welcome.
You can only change colors of all dates on our Customize page, but it is not possible to change just particular dates.
Best regards.
