  1. Hi There,
    Is it possibel to have two submit buttons on the Calendar? One submit button who will go to the paypal payment button, and one button who will send a booking request to the Adminisr´trator.
    In other words: you can book and pay direct over paypal, or you can book and pay later.

    • Hello.
      Basically after clicking on "Send" button at the booking form, booking is saving to the Database and only after that is showing payment (PayPal) form.
      So if visitor close the page and do not pay, booking still will exist. And you can lately send payment request to this visitor for making payment about this booking.
      Please read more about configuration link in payment request email here: https://wpbookingcalendar.com/faq/configure-editing-cancel-payment-bookings-for-visitors/
      Kind regards.

      • OK, but we don't want the paypal button to show up when the user is when a user klicks the second button.
        button1 (direkt pay) --> form submit --> paypal button
        button2 (request booking) --> form submit --> no paypal button (or redirect to other page?)
        Is that possible?

        thank you

        • Hello.
          You will be need to make customization for having this functionality.
          Please note, you can have only one booking form per page with this customization. Different booking forms have to be on different pages.

          1) Please open the Booking > Settings > Fields page
          and replace this shortcode:
          <p>[submit class:btn "Send"]</p>
          to this code:
          <p><a class="btn" href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="javascript:jQuery('.wpbc_pay_now').prop('checked', true);jQuery('.submit_button').click();" rel="nofollow">Book and pay</a> <a class="btn" href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="javascript:jQuery('.wpbc_pay_now').prop('checked', false);jQuery('.submit_button').click();" rel="nofollow">Book and pay later</a> </p> <div style="display:none;"> [submit class:submit_button "Send"] [checkbox is_pay_now class:wpbc_pay_now default:On ""] </div>

          2) Please open this file ../{Booking Calendar Folder}/inc/biz_s.php

          then find this code:

          <script type="text/javascript"> document.getElementById('submiting<?php echo $booking_type; ?>').innerHTML =''; if (document.getElementById('paypalbooking_form<?php echo $booking_type; ?>') != null) { document.getElementById('paypalbooking_form<?php echo $booking_type; ?>').innerHTML = '<div class=\"wpdevbk\" style=\"height:auto;margin:20px 0px;\" ><?php echo $output; ?></div>'; setTimeout(function() { makeScroll("#paypalbooking_form<?php echo $booking_type; ?>" ); }, 500); jQuery("label[for='calendar_type']").hide(); jQuery("select[name='active_booking_form']").hide(); } </script>

          and replace it to this code:

          <script type="text/javascript"> if ( ! jQuery('.wpbc_pay_now').is(':checked') ) { location.href= thank_you_page_URL; } else { document.getElementById('submiting<?php echo $booking_type; ?>').innerHTML =''; if (document.getElementById('paypalbooking_form<?php echo $booking_type; ?>') != null) { document.getElementById('paypalbooking_form<?php echo $booking_type; ?>').innerHTML = '<div class=\"wpdevbk\" style=\"height:auto;margin:20px 0px;\" ><?php echo $output; ?></div>'; setTimeout(function() { makeScroll("#paypalbooking_form<?php echo $booking_type; ?>" ); }, 500); jQuery("label[for='calendar_type']").hide(); jQuery("select[name='active_booking_form']").hide(); } } </script>

          Kind Regards.

  2. Hi I am using your booking calendar plugin in that i would like to integrate payment option please guide me how to integrate payment in that plugin.

    • Hello.
      The Business Small and higher versions of the Booking Calendar is support PayPal (Standard and PayPal Pro Hosted Solution (please note, PayPal PayPal Pro Hosted Solution its does not the same as PayPal Pro)), Authorize.Net, Sage Pay and iPay88 payment gateways integrations, other payment systems are not supporting yet. You can configure and activate it at the Booking > Settings > Payment page.

      If you want to make the integrations of your payment system by yourself, so you will be able to check how is integrated the Payment system (on the example) of the PayPal system at this file:../booking/inc/payments/paypal.php . You will be need to create your file with similar structure in that folder. Also you are need to include the calling of your file into this file: ../booking/inc/payments/index.php in the same way, as it was done for the other 3 payment systems.

      Please note, if you will modify the source code of the Booking Calendar, we will not guaranteed the correct work of plugin and do not support it.
      Kind Regards.

  3. Hello,

    The booking data from my specific booking form is not populating in the fields on the bookings page. How can we fix this?

    • Hello.
      1) Please open the Booking > Settings > Fields page, and be sure that you correctly configured "Booking form" and "Content of booking forms" (for standard and all custom booking forms, if you are using Booking Calendar Business Medium or higher versions )

      For example, if you are having in the booking form, shortcode like this:

      <p>Last Name (required):<br />[text* secondname] </p>

      Then in the Content of booking data form, you need to have this shortcode:

      <strong>Last Name</strong>:<span class="fieldvalue">[secondname]</span><br/>

      2) Try to update your version to the latest update 6.1
      You can request the new update of Booking Calendar on this page: https://wpbookingcalendar.com/request-update/

      Kind regards.

  4. Goodmorning,
    Me again. 🙂
    I have another question. I want to have a horizontal search form with only check in and check out date and a search button.
    The search should be directed to a page with the available resources for the chosen date.
    Unfortunately the form isn't horizontal (I used the "form-horizontal well" class, and it says: Keine Einstellungen zur Buchungsverwaltung gesetzt.
    What did I do wrong?

    • Hello.
      By default, in the search form have to exist also selections of number of visitors shortcode. But you can set this shortcode not visible to the visitors.
      Here is config of search form from the Booking > Settings > Search page:
      <div class="wpdevbk"> <div class="form-horizontal well"> <label>Check in:</label> [search_check_in] <label>Check out:</label> [search_check_out] <div style="display:none;"><label>Guests:</label>[search_visitors]</div> [search_button] </div> </div>

      If you will have some issue with not showing search form horizontal, please send the link to the page with this search form. I will check it then. Probably there is some CSS conflict with your actual theme.
      Kind Regards.

    • Hello.
      Sorry, its does not support in the search form.
      The placeholders in actual versions support only in the text fields in booking forms. You can configure them at the Booking > Settings > Fields page.
      I will add this feature to the future updates.
      Kind Regards.

      • OK, Thanks,
        For now I will do it with a little bit of jQuery.
        Another question about the searchform.
        When I pick a date, it shows the date in the wrong format Y-m-d, instead of d-m-Y
        In the Settings we choose d-m-Y.

        Thanx

        • Hello.
          Unfortunately, in the search form for the check in and check out dates possible to use dates only in Y-m-d format. Its known issue, and its will be fixed in future updates. Currently there is no some small fix about this, because many scripts depend from this date format during submit of search form.
          Kind Regards.

  5. HI
    I am trying out your free version before buying a paid version.
    On the final site we would install a full version which allows us to create a number of resources (rooms)
    I would want to put 8 availability calendars for 8 rooms on one page alongside each room description.

    MY QUESTION IS:
    when trying to add more that one availability calendar on one page, using the free version (so these are multiple views of the same calendar) . only the first one loads, not the rest.

    What will happen with the full version using multiple calendars for different resources ........ will it display all of them on the noe page or not?

    Thanks

  6. Hi,

    FREE VERSON can use to create multi-user portal for accommodation owners?
    User can book, pay with calendar showing the availability date?

    • Hello.
      Sorry, its does not possible with Booking Calendar Free version.
      Probably you need to check the Booking Calendar MultiUser version.

      In Booking Calendar MultiUser version possible that each registered WordPress user (your owner) have own individual independent booking admin panel, and can see and manage only own booking resources and some other settings (other owners will not see the bookings from this owner, they can see only own bookings). Please check more here (at bottom of the page) https://wpbookingcalendar.com/overview/

      Also each owner (user) will receive the emails about the bookings of the own service(s) or property (booking resource(s)) and can approve or decline them. Please note, that the each owner WordPress user) will have different individual calendar(s) with booking forms in the separate pages. Please retest it in the live demo. You can read more about the initial configuration of the Booking Calendar MultiUser version: https://wpbookingcalendar.com/faq/multiuser-version-init-config/

      Please test the live demo of Booking Calendar Multiuser version here: https://multiuser.wpbookingcalendar.com/
      Admin Panel of Multiuser version (here you can test several admin panels functionality): https://multiuser.wpbookingcalendar.com/admin-panel/

      Kind Regards.

  7. Hi there,
    I am just wondering how I can change the color of the send button so that it matches my website? I have looked everywhere but don't see anywhere to change this.

    Thanks,
    John

    • Hello.

      Please open this file ..{Booking Calendar Folder}/css/client.css

      and add to the bottom of that file this code:
      /* Change button color */ .booking_form button{ background: #f90 !important; }

  8. Is there opportunity to increase max booking days from 180 to for example 330 days. We are renting out holiday homes for short and longer term and some of our clients are staying more than 180 days. We have the business large -site.

    • Hello.
      You need to make a fix.

      Please open this file ../{Booking Calendar Folder}/inc\biz_s.php

      then find this code:

      <select style="width:60px;" name="range_selection_days_count_dynamic_max" id="range_selection_days_count_dynamic_max"> <?php for ($i=1; $i<181; $i++) { ?>
      and replace it to this code:
      <select style="width:60px;" name="range_selection_days_count_dynamic_max" id="range_selection_days_count_dynamic_max"> <?php for ($i=1; $i<368; $i++) { ?>

      Kind Regards.

      • Thank you for the excellent support. Works like a charm! Note: this field was in 3 different places so if others wonder, remember to change them all.
