Hi! I thought one of the main advantages of using WooCommerce might be that someone could checkout with more than 1 Amelia product. I've been able to add one appt to the cart, but if I then select another Amelia appointment, it overrides the first one.
Is this how it should work or do I have a setting that needs to be set to allow more than a single product at a time?
Yes, I'm afraid, that's how WooCommerce integration works in Amelia: it plays the role of a payment getaway, and some of its features as a cart or Woo login are not available in Amelia.
Basically, it is not possible to book multiple appointments at once with current built-in features in Amelia. But it is on our to-do list for future updates.
However, it can be achieved in two ways.
Option one: is to use Recurring appointments. But it is suitable only if a customer books multiple appointments of the same service (thus, all appointments will have the same duration, price, and will be performed with the same recurrence - daily, weekly, monthly). Recurring Appointments are available in all licenses.
Option two: Packages of Services - it is a feature that allows creating packages of multiple appointments (of the same or different services). In that case, the services that are included in the package and the number of appointments will be fixed, and the price will be set for the whole package. Customers will be able to book included Appointments on any days, with no strict recurrence. You can see more information here.
Please note that the Packages feature is only available for Amelia Pro and Developer licenses.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.
