DayTidy is a WordPress booking plugin for appointments, events, classes, tours, services, and dining reservations. Publish what people can book, define when it is available, and manage reservations from your WordPress dashboard. Use it for a consultation schedule, recurring workshop, guided tour, or service that depends on available staff or equipment.
A bookable item is called an offering. Each offering brings together its public details, sessions, ticket or service choices, and booking form. Start with one offering and test the complete customer journey before opening bookings to visitors.
Build a schedule around your offering
Create one-time or recurring sessions and configure their duration and recurrence limits. For example, a class can run on a repeating schedule while a workshop has a single session. Organize offerings with categories, locations, hosts, tags, labels, and agenda content when the relevant modules are enabled.
Use ticket or service options to present the choices customers can reserve. Configure the booking and participant forms with the details you need, required fields, conditional display, and offering-specific overrides. Check your saved sessions and options together so the booking form presents the intended choices.
Match bookings to available resources
DayTidy Free includes reusable global resources for staff, rooms, equipment, and other constrained assets. Set weekly hours, availability exceptions, capacity rules, and preparation or cleanup buffers. Resource availability is evaluated alongside the offering's sessions and booking requirements.
For resource-based bookings, configure an eligible pool for automatic assignment or customer selection. Each selected ticket or service option that requires a resource receives one resource assignment; selecting a pool does not reserve every resource in it. Existing reserving bookings, including Pending bookings, can reduce available capacity. These controls let you model a consultation with an available specialist or a service using shared equipment.
Give visitors a route from discovery to booking
Display offerings in list, grid, or calendar views. The public calendar provides month, week, and day views so visitors can browse sessions by date. Save a view and place its shortcode on a WordPress page, or embed the booking form for an individual offering. Generated offering pages are also available according to the Offering Page settings.
Customers choose the available options and sessions, enter the requested information, and follow the configured payment workflow. Free supports free bookings, on-site payment, and wire-transfer instructions. Offline methods require staff to collect and reconcile payment; they do not charge a customer automatically. Check the final payable amount when configuring a free booking.
Manage reservations and keep customers informed
Review booking records with separate booking and payment states, create manual bookings, and reschedule eligible reservations as an administrator. The customer portal gives authorized customers access to their bookings and reservation details. Customers can cancel eligible bookings within your configured policy and deadline; customer self-rescheduling is not included, and cancellation does not automatically refund payment.
Free includes lifecycle email templates, recipient settings, placeholders, attachments, iCal attachments, and test sends. Delivery requires working WordPress mail transport. Private ICS subscriptions cover all bookings, one offering, or one resource; these are subscription feeds with client-controlled refresh, rather than two-way external calendar synchronization. Filtered booking CSV export is available with the required permissions.
Extend your workflow with DayTidy Pro
DayTidy Pro is a separate paid extension that requires active DayTidy Free, enabled modules, and authorization through eligible Webilia Connect access or an independent license code. Optional Pro capabilities include:
- Stripe, PayPal Standard, and WooCommerce Cart online checkout, with provider configuration required.
- Eligible Stripe/PayPal charge refunds through Online Refunds; external refund recording is available in Free.
- Percentage or fixed coupons with validity periods and usage limits.
- Scheduled reminders, delivery logs, and eligible recipient retries.
- Advanced report panels, customer CSV export, and the administrator booking calendar.
- Frontend offering management, plus offering-owned resources with Resource Groups.
- Presenter profiles, sponsors, and fallback-image controls.
Only WooCommerce Cart requires WooCommerce. Pro authorization does not configure payment providers, and individual features still require their modules and permissions.
