Hello there,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

These two forms works differently. So in step by step packages are offered once they choose a service like this

And in catalog as you have already seen are shown together.

As for first step this step is useful if you have several categories of services and you can choose the correct category straight away instead of showing the list of services and packages for all 5, 10, or 15 categories, etc, that some of our user have.

You can skip this if you want to show only one category for example via our shortcode

for example like this Amelia Shortcodes and Front-end Implementation

1. [ameliacatalogbooking category=1] if you want to show only the services from a category with ID 1,

You can find more shortcodes in the article above.

Hope this helps.

Should you have any further inquiries, we kindly request that you open separate tickets for each question and we will gladly help you there.

We wish you all the best and hope you have a wonderful day ahead. 

Hello again,

We respect everyone's opinion and when we create booking forms we use study groups, the vast majority of our users prefer this view and that's why we implemented it to look like this. Of course, in case that changes, we will also change the appearance.

We encourage you to kindly consider submitting this valuable suggestion as a feature request through the following link: https://features.wpamelia.com/.

Should you have any further inquiries, we kindly request that you open separate tickets for each question and we will gladly help you there.

Hello again Mārtiņš,

I would like to inform you that the option to disable the categories step in Amelia is not available in the Customize section. However, I am pleased to inform you that now there is an alternative solution to achieve this by utilizing Gutenberg or Elementor for example. Additionally, our shortcode functionality offers another way to address this requirement.

We are sending you a comprehensive list of our shortcodes is available at the following link Amelia Shortcodes and Front-end Implementation

We believe this will assist you in seamlessly incorporating the desired changes. 

Hello again Mārtiņš,

You are most welcome, and we are glad that we were able to help you.

We wish you all the best and hope you have a wonderful day ahead.
