GastroReserve – Table Reservation

GastroReserve is a table reservation system for the hospitality industry. Guests can book a table directly on your website – you get a full overview of all reservations in the WordPress admin area. This is the free version with basic reservation functionality: no time limit, no credit card, no account required. Free Features:

• Table reservations via simple shortcode [gastroreserve]
• Guests choose date, time, duration and party size
• Admin dashboard with reservation overview (mark as arrived / no-show)
• Archive of past reservations
• Weekly opening hours (Mon–Sun) with custom times

Advanced features (credit-card no-show protection, a visual table plan editor, SMS reminders, an events module, special opening days/exceptions, booking cutoff, full-evening bookings) are available in a separate premium plugin at gastroreserve.com. This free plugin does not contain any code for those features. Ideal for:

• Restaurants
• Wine taverns and Heurigen (Austria)
• Pubs and inns
• Wedding venues and event locations

4.4.3

• Escaped five remaining output spots (conditional/ternary values in admin-page.php and frontend.php) with esc_html()/esc_attr() for consistent output escaping throughout.

4.4.2

• Renamed the remaining "zickl-" admin menu slug, CSS classes and DOM IDs to "gastroreserve-" for consistent naming throughout admin and frontend.
• Removed CSS rules left over from earlier interface simplification that no longer matched any markup (dead code, no functional change).
• Added the missing phpcs:disable rule (WordPress.DB.PreparedSQL.InterpolatedNotPrepared) around the one-time table-rename migration query, matching the pattern already used in database.php.
• Changelog history condensed.

4.4.1

• Removed the last two admin submenu entries that had no functionality behind them.
• Renamed internal function, hook and option names to a consistent "gastroreserve_" prefix; own database table and option name migrated automatically and losslessly on update.
• Removed two unused hidden form fields from the frontend form.

4.4.0

• Removed all remaining premium-feature interface elements from the free build; only genuinely free functionality remains in code and UI.
• Frontend form simplified to contact details, date/time/party size and a note field.

4.3.0 – 4.3.5

• Completed removal of paid-feature code from the free build (payment processing, table plan editor, events module) per WordPress.org guidelines; only cosmetic remnants were removed in earlier steps, now the underlying code is fully gone.
• Removed unused database columns and dead helper functions tied to removed features.
• Updated External Services disclosure to reflect that the free version makes no external connections.

4.2.0 – 4.2.14

• WordPress.org Plugin Check compliance pass: consistent escaping and sanitization of output and input, safe SQL queries, corrected plugin header fields, minor bugfixes found during review preparation.

4.0.7 – 4.0.8

• readme.txt rewritten in English for WordPress.org.
• Text domain and plugin name unified across plugin header and readme.

1.0.0

• Initial release.
