We're Moving to a New Support Platform – Starting June 1st!

We’re excited to let you know that starting June 1st, we’ll be transitioning to a new support system that will be available directly on our product websites – Amelia, wpDataTables, and Report Builder. In fact, the new support platform is already live for Amelia and wpDataTables, and we encourage you to reach out to us there.

You'll always be able to reach us through a widget in the bottom right corner of each website, where you can ask questions, report issues, or simply get assistance.

While we still do not offer live support, a new advanced, AI-powered assistant, trained on our documentation, use cases, and real conversations with our team, is there to help with basic to intermediate questions in no time.

We're doing our best to make this transition smooth and hassle-free. After June 1st, this current support website will redirect you to the new "Contact Us" pages on our product sites.

Thanks for your continued support and trust – we’re excited to bring you an even better support experience!

    I have used the short codes and I need multiple select employee wildcard.

    Currently, When I go to the book appointment I can choose: "Any employee" that leads me to a full calendar- this is an "everyone in a query" but there are no wildcards.

    here are my attempts:

    [ameliabooking category=6 location=1 employee=*] 

    [ameliabooking category=6 location=1 employee=0] 

    [ameliabooking category=6 location=1 employee=1,2,51] 

    I really want to show my available appointments WITHOUT forcing the user to choose a person.  All my employees ( moderators) work 1-3 shifts and they are the only person working in that time slot. So my customers want a slot and do not care who the employee is.

    Hello Dean, 

    You will find all of the possible Amelia shortcodes that you can use on your pages here https://wpamelia.com/amelia-shortcodes/ . The shortcodes you noted are not an option, as they can only be with one employee's ID, not many, and that must be one of the IDs of the employees created in Amelia (not 0 or *). 

    There isn't a shortcode without employee selection, but if you don't want to have it on the front-end, you can hide it with adding custom CSS. To achieve this, please try adding this format HTML to the page where you have your Amelia shortcode :

    <style>
    .el-form-item.am-select-employee-option {display:none;}
    </style>

    and let me know if it helped. In this case the Any employee option would be the default option and a random employee would be assigned to each booking (depending on their work hours of course). 

    If you have any other questions or concerns feel free to open a new ticket and we will gladly help out.

    Thanks but on my test page:

    https://allandalegroup.org/service/testcal/

    <style>
    .el-form-item.am-select-employee-option {display:none;}
    </style>
    <strong> [ameliabooking category=6 service=5]  </strong>

    the page forces me to click the continue button.

    Rather than landing on the next page.

    Please advise & Thank you.
