• Version History

  Version 2.0

  Aug 23rd, 2020

  New in Version 2:

  • Select days during the week to be excluded (i.e. exclude Saturdays and Sundays so no bookings can be made during the weekend).

  • Manually exclude specific dates within the calendar month and year (so no appointments can be booked on those dates)

  • Enable the maximum number of bookings allowed per date and time slot. Default is disabled which means all bookings regardless of date and time are accepted. If enabled, the maximum slot is defaulted to one which is the current operational mode of the original Booking stack. A future upgrade may provide the capability to specify different maximum slots per unique pairs of date and time.

  • Updated to work with the latest PHP Mailer.

  • Updated to work with the latest javascript date and time picker.

  • Minor Bug Fixes.

  Version 1.5.5

  Sep 21st, 2018

  IMPROVEMENTS:

  • Added option to turn off HTML5 Local Storage so web page doesn’t remember previously entered settings
  • Added SMTP option for receipts and notifications if needed by the server (non-SMTP is the easiest to setup; best to check junk and spam filters always in both cases) https://forums.realmacsoftware.com/t/booking-stack-yuzool/14601/81
  • First step of Google Sheets integration. Add this command to the first cell in your Google Sheet and it will import your CSV of Bookings: =importData("https://yourdomain.com/booking/index_files/your-csv.csv") Change the URL to your own absolute CSV link

  FIXES:

  • Fixed Time Out as included in default otherwise CSV not generated in demo run and appears as broken

  Version 1.5.0

  May 31st, 2018

  NEW:

  • Can no longer book dates in the past!
  • You can hide all calendars and dates. There will be just Name and Email remaining. Good if have already made multiple bookings pages for each one day event and just want to confirm names and emails.
  • Browser remembers input fields so if Booking is Booked and form refreshes, all data doesn’t need to be entered again

  IMPROVEMENTS:

  • Time auto selects nearest to local time of user
  • Take off “Enable End Date” to allow bookings for whole days like 1 Day Workshops
  • Email receipts and notifications should have better functionality to only be sent when correct (e.g. only when booking made and not during double booking)

  FIX:

  • Time default ranges
  • Disabling the “Enable Time at all” doesn’t result in error messages anymore

  Version 1.4.1

  Oct 26th, 2017

  • 1.4.1

  • Fix to notifications email

  • 1.4

  • 24 Hour clock now an option for the time
  • Buttons can be styled! By default Booking takes the style of the Button from the theme. Now you can override it with controls for colour, text colour, padding, radius, font size and hover styles!
  • Email notifications and receipts now include the booking information in the body of the email. This reminds the booker when to turn up and gives a quick note to the seller what slot has been booked
  • Fields were originally all required but now that can be disabled. In case booker wants to just leave a telephone number and not an email, you can set this up as you wish
  • Time is also now optional. So if you want to only book days and not times (e.g. in the case of a Bed and Breakfast with days only needed, as renting full days), the time can be switched off
  • Tidy up of the Stack GUI with clearer options
