How to plan availability for the services

In case you have multiple Service Providers, remember that the availability plan is tied to the current WordPress user. So each provider is responsible to plan its own availability.

There are basically two ways to provide availability for the services with this plugin:

  • Working Hours planner

  • Google Calendar 3-ways

Historically, this plugin only shipped the latter - only recently we introduced a Working Hours planner to accomodate who don't want to use Google Calendar for this task.

ModeProsCons

Working Hours planner

  • Doesn't require Google Calendar

  • Limited flexibility

  • Need access to the plugin backend to modify the schedule

Google Calendar 3-ways

  • Unprecedented flexibility

  • Manage availability without accessing to the plugin backend

  • Requires Google Calendar

Mode 1 - Working Hours

Go to Availability > Working Hours and click on New plan

In the panel that opens, provide a name for the plan, and then create it. A new record appears in the table.

Under Services, you can select the services that must observe this availability plan. Now click on Settings icon, and a weekly planner appears.

Intervals can be added/removed with the plus and minus buttons to the right of each day.

Scrolling down, you can also see a yearly calendar where you can select your day-offs.

Remember to hit the Save button when done!

Mode 2 - Google Calendar 3-ways
