How can we improve WooThemes?

Booking calendar plugin

It would be so useful to have a booking calendar plugin that can be used on any theme. You're already halfway there with Diner's reservation bookings. It would be great to see something that can be used either for reservations (hotel, restaurant), or service bookings (consulting, spa)

There are a few available plugins like this for Wordpress, but I haven't found one that is particularly good. The Woo team could definitely build a superior plugin.

        I have to add my voice to the urgent need for an a room allocation, multisite and appointment scheduler. I run a counselling service from service rooms and several locations. I have searched the web for a good appointment and rooms booking system to no avail. Plenty that do bits, plenty that are too expensive for a small biz. I would love to have some input when the plugin or theme is being developed. In anticipation.

        I am a photographer and use bookingbug.com for studio bookings. Lots of really great features but expensive. Looking for some some alternatives Ink Themes have just launched an appointment theme http://inkthemes.com/wptheme/appointway-doctors/
        Would really like to known when you guys will release something.

        Is anything happening with this? I have client sites where I need to use it. If I need to look for an alternative, it would be helpful to know. Thanks!

        Is this ever happening its been almost a year since it was planned

        Don't forget to implement automatic time zone calculations. I'm planning a world wide online coffee consultancy website (and for that reason looks so much forward to this feature!) and it would be a HUGE value for me that already on the booking-system level that no time zone mistakes will be introduced between me and my customers.

        This would be huge. There are only a few plugins that really work out there. Events manager is close. Modern tribe has their woo tickets, but that's not really a full featured booking system that extends past single events or single purpose (wont work with general service - must be tied to single event), and WPMU dev has appointments, but that has flaws too. They're planning bookings but that has been in development a long time too. Something from woo would be super handy for this.

        I could REALLY use this because I run a psychotherapy service in my country.
        Does anyone know a good way to schedule coaching/therapy sessions using woothemes?

      • Myles RothackerMyles Rothacker commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        any update on when? I have an installation business and a physical therapist that I could really use this on.

        Any word on this since it was set as planned in 2012?. Deff. could use something that does service bookings (i.e: book 2 hrs a day or a full day for a service).

        It does the lot. It'll even process payments in direct competition to woo (sorry, Woo). On the downside the premium version with ecommerce capability is an eyewatering 119euro! Ouch. But even the free version might help out some people... it picks up the price of woo products and calculates the number of nights to generate a total etc.

        C'mon Woo, I'd prefer to send some cash your way and not have to undo everything I've already done in the process ;D

        I have to agree - would love to see this! Availability control for individual products, with a date picker on the front end would be awesome. Great for my latest client who offers bed and breakfast accommodation on behalf of multiple homeowners, and many other service-led businesses too I expect.

        Woo thrives on websites made for small to medium businesses and no one has come up with this yet so to me it just sounds like common business sense! Likewise, to echo someone else, you have the core done through Diner already, no?

        Keep up the good work.
