can i convert this plugin into SAAS ?

It depends on your coding skills on Java, PHP and C#! We never tried to convert our plugin to SAAS :)

I agreed if you are ok I will buy your plugin and hire dev to expand it and make it more add-ons for my self

Of course you can do that for yourself. But if you want to use the final product (what your dev will make) for commercial use (like selling the final product in Envato market or somewhere else), you need to purchase “extended license” instead of “regular license”.

I have some pre-sale questions: 1.) Is it possible to edit the DESCRIPTION content? (delete fields, add fields, rename fields) – 2.) Can I hide Reviews? – 3.) Is this plugin SEO-friendly? Many thanks!

Hi,
Thanks for your interest in ARB booking plugin.

1. It is possible to edit description content.
2. Yes, you can hide reviews.
3. Yes, ARB plugin is SEO-friendly.

Do you have the ability to book appointments with a specific person? For example let’s say I have 3 stylists, can I view their individual availability and select one for an appointment?

Hi,
Thanks for your interest in ARB plugin.

ARB lets you build as many appointment forms as you need. So, you can create 3 individual bookable products (for you its bookable persons) and users will be able to visit each of them individually and book any one from there. Each bookable product can be built by ARB like this example.

Another way is to include details of those 3 persons in one product and let users choose one of them from dropdown options like this.

I have few question and few issues but first of all i will explain about my website. Basically we are creating this website for 2 different purpose, 1 user can book face to face learning sessions, and second user can able to book general appointment.

Question 1) is it possible we can do both things within this plugin?

Question 2) Is it possible we can assigned different slots on different services? e.g I want to display all of the services in a single page and then user can select service and based on the service time slot will change.

Question 3) for example a user booked a learning session on 8 of June and time slots are 4 pm to 6 pm, (for learning session available quantity is 3) So what i want that that specific slots are not disable when some one book appointment that specific slots 4pm to 6pm are not visible.

Issues 1) when i try to add rules in resources, after saving i don’t see anything.

Issues 2) I have issues with time slots, Time slots is not display properly.

hello, can I create a calendar where a person can mark the start date of the rental day and the end date of the rental? And if rent for 1 hour = 5 1d – 5d = 13 6d – 25 = 10 26 d = 8 / d Duration Discounts I think so. Thanks for the reply

Hi,
Thanks for your interest in ARB.

Your question is not clear to me. Kindly contact the Support Team, and they may understand what you are referring to and reply accordingly.

Question before the purchase, I would like to know if I can assign a doctor to a woocommerce product, for example, I intend to use it for scheduling appointments so some “products” will have one or more doctors, the time slots would then be linked to the product and the doctor at the same time? if you have a demo admin link I would be very happy

Okay, I had already seen this screen, just confirm one thing, are these doctors available for this specific product?   because I have more than 70 doctors and it would not be pleasant for the end customer to have to choose one from such a large list, at the risk of choosing the doctor wrongly. To recap, I need to assign 1 or more doctors to a product and define its time slot, the other doctors will be assigned to other woocommerce products, is this how it works today? Taking the opportunity to ask one more thing, I noticed that your form has the fields month day year year, can I change it easily to day / month / year? date format

Yes you can create different products for different doctors. Its unlimited. You can create unlimited WooCommerce products and assign your chosen doctors to those products.

thanks, i will try and test the solution

will this works with any multivendor woocommerce theme? ..

Hi,
Thanks for your interest in ARB Booking plugin.

ARB plugin is compatible with any WordPress theme, which is WooCommerce compatible.

Hello. Presale question:

Is there a way to have the featured image change when a variable changes? In other words, if someone chooses a different doctor, can a photo of the doctor change in the featured image area? Thank you.

Hi,
Thanks for your interest in ARB plugin.

The ARB plugin is a booking solution with WooCommerce. It does not have anything to do with the images of the products. There are lots of plugins which does what you want. For example, this plugin (//codecanyon.net/item/wooswatches-woocommerce-color-or-image-variation-swatches/7444039) says it’s feature is to change the image when variable changes.

So, if you need to have both (booking solution and variable image change feature) you can use ARB plugin and another plugin like the above.

Please inform us, if you have any other queries.

Thanks for your reply.

Hello! I am interested in your plugin, but I would like to be 100% sure that it has the features I am looking for.

I need you to have the following functionalities:

I need to have 3 types of services (tickets):

Adults: € 18 Disabled people: € 12 Children: Free (With a maximum of 50 entries per hour)

The client must be able to choose DATE, TIME and NUMBER OF TICKETS and be able to pay with Redsys and Paypal.

Thank you very much, I hope news.

Hi there,
Thanks for your interest in ARB plugin.

The features/functionalities you mentioned are available in ARB Reservations plugin. And we are working to include more and more useful features in ARB plugin.

About Payment Gateways:
ARB plugin is an extension of WooCommerce plugin. So, whatever payment gateways you can use with WooCommerce, can be used for ARB plugin as well. If Redsys is available for WooCommerce, you can accept payment for bookings in ARB plugin using Redsys as well.

Regards, Fluent-Themes

This plugin might be perfect for what my client needs but I have a question first. I see you have a multiple day option. Lets say we have 5 full day tour slots available everyday. We then give the user the option of 1 or 2 day tours. If the user purchases a 2 day tour that starts on Friday, does the system know to subtract 1 tour slot from both Fri and Sat?

Yes, the booking system will subtract the tour which is booked already. New users will see those 2 dates as booked already.

Thank you,
Fluent-Themes Team

Does the plugin work with VRBO, AirBNB?

We don’t know that, because we didn’t try AirBNB or VRBO yet.

Hi. I’m interested in this plugin. Is this plugin compatible with Divi theme?

Hi,
Thanks for your interest in ARB Booking plugin.

ARB plugin is compatible with any WordPress theme, which is WooCommerce compatible.

I really like this plugin and i wanna buy several licenses for several websites… but one bug is stopping me In your demo… consultant booking If i book from 12pm to 2pm (2 hours) and again 3pm to 4pm (1 hour) All is fine so far But when i come once again and set 2 hours booking i see the available slots 2pm 5pm 6pm And as I select 2pm… it doesn’t give me any error message… and I can continue the process… I think you need to fix this bug in “Avoid Double Booking” and I will be very happy to buy it :)

Please check these screenshots

I have selected cash payment… i thought the process is done when I didn’t see 3pm and 4pm I have been checking several plugins and I am afraid if I purchased yours I may get bugs afterwards and delay my website completion… in addition to losing the price of it If you guarantee money back based on what you’ve mentioned, I will happily buy it!

Cash on deliver payment means the booking is not paid yet. It needs admin confirmation. Admin gets notified as soon as a booking order is placed, and if the booking is confirmed by admin, then that booking slot will not be displayed at front-end anymore. So, no double booking will happen.

It is of course your choice which plugin you buy for your use. Though we guarantee the plugin will work exactly as we mentioned in the plugin details page and here in the comments section. Refund is always available under the guidelines of Envato Refund Policy.

Regards, Fluent-Themes

Thank you so much for your reply, I will give it a try :)

Hi,

Can I let my client create their own services for booking, then they can have their customer to booking the services they created? So my client can manage the booking of their customer

Hi, No, you cannot let your client to create their own services for booking. Only admin can create booking products and manage the booking orders. The clients can book a product, and manage their own booking orders only from their “My Account” page.

Thank you, Fluent-Themes

Hello,

I have a question regarding the ARB reservation. I am working with MyListing directory theme, that is well interconnected with Woocommerce.

The user account menu, products and checkout are already in and they are powered by the woocommerce.

1) Will a product created by your plugin end in MyListing WooCommerce Checkout or I will be redirected to your unique user menu and checkout?

2) Will you have the reservation home page search Check in/ check out / adults /children ?

3) are the buttons and design of boxes customizable? Will it take the design of the theme that it is in (colors, etc.)?

Thank you.

Hi, Thanks for your reply.

1. No, you cannot import iCalendar from other OTA sites.

2. Paying deposit instead of full payment is not implemented in the plugin yet. But, in future we may include this feature if we get more requests on this from the customers.

3. Firm/fixed fees like VAT or Tax can be added easily with ARB. Because this plugin is an add-on of WooCommerce and it supports all the facility WooCommerce provides. Tax calculating and including in the payment is an option of WooCommerce and you can add that in your ARB reservable products as well.

Regards, Fluent-Themes

Thank you very much. If the front end layout expand boxes from edge to edge and will have no spacing between names and the boxes, have different colour of button, can you help adjust it? and basically can you help overcome any styling problems with boxes, fonts and sizes – can you customize it precisely for my case? thank you

Hi, Thanks for your reply.

The spacing between names and fields will be good, because the fields and fonts and colors design will be coming from your theme. Still, if you do not like your theme’s default design for the booking form, no problem. You can always “switch on” the plugin’s default design, as you are seeing in our live demo.

However, if you find anything unusual (design is not like we say), you can always reach to the Support Team. They will help you fix any issues like that.

Note: The price of the ARB plugin is now $28 only. This is our introductory price offer which is valid for next couple of days only. The original price of ARB plugin is $48. If you are planning to purchase ARB, you better hurry :)

Fluent-Themes

Great Work, your plugin looks very user friendly and visual which is great. some pre-sales questions.

1. If booked service of 1.5hr duration at 9:00am , then next available slot will be 10:30am?

2. Also can possible hide/show 9:00, 9:30,10:00am from settings, on above question 2 ?

3. I am also interesting to use in a directory theme where vendor add their listing .i want vendor to be able to create bookings calendar and accept the bookings in front-end via shortcode.is it possible with your great plugin?

Regards

Hi, Thank you for your interest in ARB.

1. Yes, if booked service of 1.5 hour duration at 9:00AM, then next available slot will be 10:30AM.

And, you can set maximum reservable slots from the settings. For example, if you put “1” as maximum reservable slot, then if 9:00AM service is booked by 1 user, then it will not be bookable by any other users. They can book from the next slots only. To understand more clearly you can view the ARB live demo example of hourly booking.

Similarly, if you put “3” as maximum reservable slot, then if 9:00AM service will be available for booking until it reaches 3 bookings.

And, if the whole day’s slots are booked, then that date will not be clickable in calendar and the color of that date will be different from others.

2. Yes, you can hide/show different times/slots as your needs from settings.

3. We are afraid, we haven’t included this feature in ARB yet. Though we are always working on the plugin to improve and include as many important features as possible. Right now we are working to include Google Calendar integration add-on for ARB and we are hoping to release that by the end of this week :)

will this plugin convert appointment as a woo-commerce product if so i can use other addons for woo commerce for example woocommerce order send to whatsapp etc..

Yes we got your point. We did not try those addons you mentioned with ARB yet. So, we cannot make you assured about this. We can inform you that ARB plugin is integrated with WooCommerce Cart/Checkout/Orders functionality. So, if a plugin use cart items OR checkout items OR ordered items for their functionality, then those plugins should get ARB products data also in their cart or checkout or ordered data.

Regards, Fluent-Themes

Can I buy for testing if they work good other wise can I get refund ?

Please take a look at the Refund Policy of Envato Market.

Hi guys, can the plugin work with Woocommerce Multivendors

Hi, We didn’t try our ARB reservation plugin with Multivendors, so we are not sure about this. But we can assure you that we built the plugin in the most standard way so it will not conflict with any plugins, and it will work seamlessly with WooCommerce plugin.

Thank you, Fluent-Themes

Does this plugin allow me to book a rental product like Chairs/Tables etc?

Yes it does :) . You can choose how many chairs or tables you want to rent out for how many days. Users will choose a Pick up date and pay the payment either online or cash on delivery. And many other options also available to set your booking form as your needs.

Thank you :) Fluent-Themes

Yes dear thank you very much :) I tested it and it got everything I was searching for.

Keep it up your nice work :)

Great to hear that :) . Don’t hesitate to contact us again if you face any issues in future. OR if you have any request on adding new feature to this ARB plugin.
