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 looking into your platform as a solution for my needs, but I am having trouble determining if it can do rooms? I am currently using a program called skedda, as it allows me to have my tenants rent specific rooms for specific hours. Our business leases out rooms by the hour and we have 10 rooms to rent. I am wondering if you can set up rooms in your platform. If so, what does that process look like. Thank you, if your platform does this, I will definitely be buying!

    Hello Christopher,

    Thank you for expressing interest in the Amelia plugin.

    Our plugin currently supports 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-day booking then you should check out our new feature Events.

    You can either create rooms where services are and create an employee for each room (a 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 a separate employee and create just one service to attach to each room. Just so you know each employee needs to have an email, so if you don't need a separate email for each you can create 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 your employee email address is [email protected] you can make more employees with the same email by adding numbers like [email protected],[email protected]... )

    And then you can use the ameliabooking shortcode and on the front-end, you can hide with CSS  dropdown with Employees.

    You can use this CSS rule on the page between style tags where you will hide Employee dropdown:

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

    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.


    Kind Regards,
