Hello, I have a single location with 3 rooms. I want to allow booking of each rooms in the single location. How can I set it up in your app? Currently under locations, i can only enter the address. How do I specify that the location has 3 rooms and each is allowed to be book? Basically I would like someone to choose which room to book and the services allowed for that room. Please advise. Thanks.
Our plugin currently support time slot booking during one day, so if it is just renting of co-working space for a couple of hours a day, then it is possible to use our plugin for this. If, however you need multi-days booking then you should check out our new feature Events.
You can either create rooms where services are and create employee for each room (different one, so they can be bookable at the same time) and hide the employee selection with a simple CSS (we will explain later on ) or you can create each room as separate employee and create just one service to attach to each room. Just so you know each employee needs to have email, so if you don't need a separate email for each you can create with Gmail or outlook the same email with +number, and they will be seen as a different one (a would later explain you this in more details, but you should know that you need to use Gmail or Outlook).
If you create just one employee and rooms as services, that means that rooms will not be bookable at the same time, since there is just one employee that is working (one employee/rooms one working hours - multiple employees/rooms multiple working hours). That is the reason why I offer you two other workarounds: rooms as services but with several employees hidden from the front-end, or rooms as employees with one service.
I hope it helps.
If you need some further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us.
Thanks for responding. But I am still slightly confused.
How do I create this "rooms" you are talking about?
My current use case is this:
This is a therapy business. We have a group of therapist meeting clients in specific rooms. Each session is for only 1 hour. The session does not extend over 1 day.
I have a location with 3 rooms.
I have 5 therapist.
I would like to assign therapist to a specific room for that specific time slot. How do I do this?
I tried created 3 location with Location Name Room #1, Location Name Room #2 and Location Name Room #3. The problem is, I cannot assign staff to more than 1 location for the services.
Yes, but unfortunately it is not possible to add more locations to one employee. There is a workaround where you can make three same employees with different emails (you can use the same email by adding numbers for example if your client email address is [email protected] you can make more employees with the same email adding numbers like [email protected],[email protected]...). This is possible for Gmail and Outlook accounts.
And then you can use ameliabooking shortcode and on the front-end you can hide with CSS dropdown with Employees and it will be shown just Location dropdown.
You can use this CSS rule on the page between style tags where you will hide Employee dropdown:

By rooms I meant services.
