常见问题:
Is this plugin really free? Are there hidden fees?
Yes, the core plugin is completely free with no hidden charges. A Pro version is available that adds advanced features like blocking specific holiday dates, break times, and per-product control — but the free version is fully functional for standard single-date booking scenarios.
Does this plugin work without WooCommerce?
No. Simple Entry Booking is an add-on for WooCommerce. You must have WooCommerce installed and activated for this plugin to work.
How do I add a booking date picker to my WooCommerce product?
After activating the plugin, go to Settings > Booking Date Picker and configure your preferences. By default, the booking field appears on all products. You can use the Category Control setting to restrict it to specific product categories only.
Can I show the booking calendar on specific products only?
In the free version, you can restrict the field to specific product categories using the Category Control setting. To target individual products directly, upgrade to the Pro version which includes per-product control.
Does this plugin support multi-day or date-range bookings?
No — this plugin is intentionally designed for single-date bookings only (one date per order item). It is optimized for daily rentals, single appointments, and one-day service bookings. For multi-day or date-range bookings, this is not the right plugin.
How does the booking availability limit work?
You can set a maximum number of bookings allowed per weekday. When that limit is reached, the date is automatically blocked (greyed out) in the calendar. The limit counts both completed orders and items currently sitting in other customers' carts, so you never accidentally overbook.
Where does the booking date appear after the customer orders?
The selected booking date and time are stored as order meta and displayed:
- On the Cart page alongside the product
- On the Checkout page in the order summary
- In the WooCommerce Order details in the admin dashboard
- In the Customer order confirmation email
Can I block weekends or specific days of the week?
Yes. In the Settings page, you can block any combination of weekdays (Monday through Sunday) from being selectable on the calendar. For blocking specific individual dates (like public holidays), upgrade to the Pro version.
Is this plugin compatible with WooCommerce HPOS (High Performance Order Storage)?
Yes. The plugin is fully compatible with WooCommerce High Performance Order Storage. It uses optimized SQL queries and hidden meta keys (_booking_date) to maintain excellent performance even on large stores.
Can I customize the label of the booking date field?
Yes. You can change the frontend label of both the date field and the time field to any text you want from the Settings > Booking Date Picker page.
Does the plugin support booking discounts?
Yes. The free version supports percentage or fixed-amount discounts applied to specific days of the week (e.g., 10% off every Tuesday). For discounts on specific calendar dates, see the Pro version.
Is Simple Entry Booking compatible with the latest version of WooCommerce?
Yes. The plugin is regularly tested with the latest versions of WordPress and WooCommerce. The "Tested up to" field in the plugin header always reflects the most recently verified version.
Will this work with my theme?
The plugin outputs standard WooCommerce hooks and uses jQuery UI datepicker, which is included in WordPress by default. It should work with any properly coded WooCommerce-compatible theme.
