We're Moving to a New Support Platform – Starting June 1st!

We’re excited to let you know that starting June 1st, we’ll be transitioning to a new support system that will be available directly on our product websites – Amelia, wpDataTables, and Report Builder. In fact, the new support platform is already live for Amelia and wpDataTables, and we encourage you to reach out to us there.

You'll always be able to reach us through a widget in the bottom right corner of each website, where you can ask questions, report issues, or simply get assistance.

While we still do not offer live support, a new advanced, AI-powered assistant, trained on our documentation, use cases, and real conversations with our team, is there to help with basic to intermediate questions in no time.

We're doing our best to make this transition smooth and hassle-free. After June 1st, this current support website will redirect you to the new "Contact Us" pages on our product sites.

Thanks for your continued support and trust – we’re excited to bring you an even better support experience!

    Hello,

    I use the amelia plugin to book a room.
    I would like to offer a reservation:
    by the hour
    by the half day
    by the day

    by defining a time page from 9am to 6pm for the reservation
    I can offer the rental by the hour
    by the day without problems.

    For the half day I would like time slots 9am-1pm and 2pm-6pm

    the plugin offers me (9am-1pm / 10am-2pm / 11am-3pm / 12pm-4pm...)

    If I add a break from 1pm to 2pm to the employee the half-day reservations are fine as I would like them to be but the reservation by the day becomes impossible.

    Do you have a solution to offer me?

    I hope I am clear in my explanations!

    Thanks in advance

    Hello Lorenzo,

    Thank you for reaching out! I understand that you want to offer room reservations by the hour, half-day (9 AM – 1 PM and 2 PM – 6 PM), and full-day (9 AM – 6 PM) while ensuring the system handles these time slots correctly.

    Since adding a break from 1 PM to 2 PM helps with half-day bookings but prevents full-day reservations, I recommend the following approach:

    1. Create Separate Services:

      • One service for hourly booking (set minimum and maximum duration accordingly).
      • One service for half-day booking (set fixed time slots for 9 AM – 1 PM and 2 PM – 6 PM).
      • One service for full-day booking (set duration to 9 AM – 6 PM).
    2. Set Employee Availability:

      • Keep the employee available from 9 AM – 6 PM without a break.
      • Ensure each service has the correct working hours and does not overlap incorrectly.
    3. Use Different Pricing & Buffers If Needed:

      • You can apply different pricing for half-day and full-day services.
      • Add buffer times if necessary to prevent overlap.

    This setup should allow customers to book by the hour, half-day, or full-day without conflicts. Let me know if you need further assistance!

    Kind Regards,
