Hello Chris

Thank you for reaching out to us.

Amelia is linked to the time zone you configure in your WordPress General Settings. However, each employee you create has his/her own "Time Zone" section:

So, each employee can configure his/hers work hours based on the time zone you set here. They can configure their work hours through the front-end employee panel.

There's no way you can indicate which time zone each employee operates in, but you can rename them or configure different pages for different time zones.

Option 1 (renaming): You can create an employee with the name "Chris Williams (California)"; then create a new employee "John Doe (New Mexico)", and the third employee "Jane Doe (New York)". This way, people would know the time zone of each employee they can select from the employee drop-down before they book.

Option 2 (pages): You can create 3 buttons on your home page "California", "New Mexico" and "New York", and then create 3 separate booking pages. So, button 1 (California) would lead to another page where you'd set the shortcode like [ameliastepbooking employee=1], and on this page, only Chris would work in California's Time zone. Another button would lead to another page, where the shortcode would be [ameliastepbooking employee=2], where John would work only in New Mexico's time zone, and so on.

In Amelia/Customize section you can enable the "Time Zone visibility", so the customers see their time zone when booking an appointment.

If you want to create Packages, you'll need to obtain Pro or Developer license plan of Amelia (since Packages are not included in the Basic plan). Once you configure the package to include X number of appointments, you can configure that the minimum number of bookings is 0, and the maximum number of bookings is 0, so your customers will only purchase the package but they will have the freedom to book appointments within that package later on, through the front end customer panel.

Hey Chris.

If you go to https://sports.wpamelia.com/ and click on "Book Appointment", you can select one of the services (for example, Bikram Yoga), and when you click on "Continue", the plugin will offer one of the packages that include this service:

If you enable the Time Zone in the form, the customer will see his/her local time. So, for example, if your employee is in UTC-6 and the customer is in UTC-8; if the employee has available time slots at 12:00 (UTC-6), the customer will see a time slot at 10:00 (UTC-8).

Hope that helps.
