Hey there, Awesome Customers!

Just a heads up: We'll be taking a breather to celebrate International Workers' Day (May 1st and 2nd - Wednesday and Thursday) and Orthodox Easter from Good Friday (May 3rd) through Easter Monday (May 6th). So, from May 1st to May 6th, our team will be off enjoying some well-deserved downtime.

During this time, our customer support will be running on a smaller crew, but don't worry! We'll still be around to help with any urgent matters, though it might take us a bit longer than usual to get back to you.

We'll be back in action at full throttle on May 7th (Tuesday), ready to tackle your questions and requests with gusto!

In the meantime, you can explore our documentation for Amelia and wpDataTables. You'll find loads of helpful resources, including articles and handy video tutorials on YouTube (Amelia's YouTube Channel and wpDataTables' YouTube Channel). These gems might just have the answers you're looking for while we're kicking back.

Thanks a bunch for your understanding and support!

Catch you on the flip side!

Warm regards,

TMS

    I am trying to find a booking plugin for a client who runs a retreat center. It needs to be simple yet flexible like Amelia, which I like and might buy. Hotel booking plugins are too specialized, most other booking plugins aren't flexible enough. My client rents out the whole center for evenings, weekends and week-long rentals (as well as having events). I can set up, for example, the evening rental as a service with a duration of 6 hrs. but I can't set up a way for someone to book the retreat center for a two-and-a-half-day weekend or for a week. I would like to be able to select longer times. Right now the time drop-downs stop at 23hrs. 30min. Can this limitation be remedied?

    Hi Chrys,

    thank you for reaching out to ussmile.png

    Maybe you can achieve what you need with recurring services? In this way, client can choose if they want to book one day, two, a week.

    Just click Recurring in a service, and when client goes to book on the frontend they will be prompted to choose a day, and asked to repeat the service if they wish to. If they choose to repeat, they will then pick a starting date, and will need to choose until when the booking will repeat (until which date). Unfortunately, in services we cannot set a limit to how many days they can pick, so you can also try setting this up with events, as events can be made to last one, three, five days, and within those days only.
