Dreamfoxmedia Delivery Date & Timeslot for WooCommerce

Take full control of your WooCommerce delivery schedule with Dreamfox Delivery Date & Timeslot for WooCommerce. This powerful plugin lets customers choose when their order arrives — directly at checkout. You define lead times, delivery windows, slot duration, and how many orders fit in each timeslot. When a slot is full, it disappears automatically so you never get overbooked. Perfect for bakeries, florists, meal prep stores, local delivery businesses, and any WooCommerce shop that needs reliable order scheduling without custom development. 👉 Learn more about features and documentation: dreamfoxmedia.com 🚀 Why this plugin? Manual delivery scheduling leads to missed dates, overbooked slots, and endless customer emails asking "When can you deliver?" With this plugin, you can: – Let customers pick their delivery date at checkout – Offer timeslots inside your delivery window (e.g. 08:00–20:00) – Set a maximum number of orders per slot — full slots hide automatically – Apply rules per product category so scheduling only shows when it matters – Show the chosen date and timeslot in orders, emails, and the thank-you page 👉 Result: Fewer missed deliveries, less admin work, and a smoother checkout experience your customers trust. Key Features ✔ Works on both the classic checkout and the new WooCommerce Block Checkout ✔ Delivery date picker on the WooCommerce checkout page ✔ Minimum lead time — e.g. require at least 3 days before delivery ✔ Count only working days toward the lead time, if you like ✔ Category-based rules — apply scheduling to any product categories, no limit, with a per-category lead-time override ✔ Holiday and blackout dates — block dates customers cannot book ✔ Disable specific weekdays (e.g. no Sunday or Monday deliveries) ✔ Custom delivery date label and description at checkout ✔ Make the delivery date field required, or auto-fill it with the earliest available date ✔ Delivery date and timeslot shown in admin orders, customer emails, order details, and thank-you page ✔ Lightweight, fast, and easy to configure ✔ No coding required Delivery Timeslots ✔ Enable or disable timeslots with one toggle ✔ Define your delivery window start and end time (e.g. 08:00 – 20:00) ✔ Choose slot duration: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, or 12 hours ✔ Set max orders per timeslot — full slots are hidden from customers automatically ✔ Past timeslots on today's date are filtered out in real time ✔ Live slot preview in admin — see your schedule update as you adjust settings Built for Performance and Security ✔ HPOS compatible — fully supports WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage ✔ Nonce-verified AJAX, capability checks, and sanitized data throughout ✔ Translation ready — Dutch, English, and German included Everything above is 100% free — there is currently no paid tier. If that changes in a future release, this section (and the plugin's Freemius pricing page) will say so clearly. How It Works

3.2.9 - 2026-10-24

• Block Checkout (WooCommerce 9.9+): a required delivery date is now shown as required instead of "(optional)", and the delivery date and timeslot fields are hidden when the cart has no product from a delivery category. Older WooCommerce versions and very large catalogs keep the previous behaviour.

3.2.8 - 2026-10-24

• Fix: the delivery date on the order received page, in emails, in the admin order list and in the My Account reschedule page could show one day early on sites with a timezone behind UTC (e.g. America/New_York).
• Fix: the delivery date and timeslot were missing from customer emails sent from wp-admin (status changes, "Resend order details"), AJAX and WP-Cron requests. Plain-text emails now get a plain-text version.
• Fix: the delivery box appeared twice on the order received page.

3.2.7 - 2026-10-16

• Readme: links to the new guides and documentation on dreamfoxmedia.com, corrected plugin page URL.

3.2.6 - 2026-10-13

• Renamed to Dreamfoxmedia Delivery Date & Timeslot for WooCommerce.

3.2.5 - 2026-10-12

• Updated Freemius SDK to the latest version.

3.2.4 - 2026-10-10

• Compatibility: getest met WordPress 7.1.3 en WooCommerce 11.2.1

3.2.3 - 2026-10-08

• Compatibility: getest met WordPress 7.1.3 en WooCommerce 11.2.0

3.2.2 - 2026-10-07

• Compatibility: getest met WordPress 7.1.3 en WooCommerce 11.1.2

3.2.1 - 2026-10-01

• Compatibility: getest met WordPress 7.1.2 en WooCommerce 11.1.2

3.2.0 - 2026-08-20

• Everything is free now: working-days-only lead time, holiday/blackout dates, disabling specific weekdays, custom checkout label & description, a required delivery-date field, auto-filling the earliest available date, and per-category lead-time overrides — all previously Premium-only — are available to everyone, no license needed. The settings screen gained three tabs (Categories, Holidays and weekends, Other Settings) to configure them.
• Upgrade-safe: sites that already had a lead time and/or applicable categories configured keep working exactly as before — those settings are copied over automatically the first time the plugin loads after updating, no reconfiguration needed.
• Premium tier reintroduced: automated delivery reminder emails, customer self-service reschedule from My Account, per-pickup-location delivery rules, and delivery surcharges are now available as paid Premium features.
• Renamed: plugin display name is now "Dreamfox Delivery Date & Timeslot for WooCommerce", matching the naming convention of our other WooCommerce plugins. The WordPress.org slug (woocommerce-delivery-date), text domain and all internal identifiers are unchanged — this is a display-name-only change, existing installs update normally.
• Admin settings screen reworked from a React single-page app to a server-rendered nav-tab layout, matching the navigation pattern of our other WooCommerce plugins (Payment Gateway per Product, Shipping Methods per Product). No functional or data changes — all existing settings are preserved.

3.1.1 - 2026-08-19

• Nieuw: de Information-, Settings- en Timeslot Settings-tabs (free en premium) hebben een nieuwe layout gekregen met een zijbalk (Dreamfox Media-links en verwante plugins) en een schermafbeeldingengalerij, in lijn met de andere Dreamfox WooCommerce-plugins.
• Nieuw: nieuwe plugin-banner, -icoon en echte schermafbeeldingen voor de WordPress.org-listing.
• Tags in readme.txt geoptimaliseerd voor vindbaarheid in de WordPress.org-pluginmap.

3.1.0 - 2026-08-14

• Fix: op de klassieke checkout kon een bestelling niet meer worden afgerond wanneer tijdvakken waren ingeschakeld voor de betreffende categorie — het tijdvak-keuzeveld werd niet weergegeven, terwijl het wél verplicht bleef bij het afrekenen. Het veld wordt nu weer correct getoond en tijdvakken kunnen weer normaal worden geselecteerd.
• Nieuw: leverdatum en tijdvak werken nu ook op de WooCommerce Block Checkout (Cart & Checkout blocks), niet langer alleen op de klassieke [woocommerce_checkout]-shortcode-checkout. De leverdatum is op de block-checkout een tekstveld (YYYY-MM-DD i.p.v. de jQuery UI-datepicker); het tijdvak (indien ingeschakeld) is een keuzelijst met de beschikbare tijdvakken. Validatie (minimale levertermijn, geblokkeerde datums, tijdvakcapaciteit) en opslag lopen via dezelfde helpers en dezelfde order-meta als de klassieke checkout, dus bestellingen zien er identiek uit ongeacht welke checkout gebruikt is.

3.0.4 - 2026-07-21

• Compatibility: getest met WordPress 7.0.2 en WooCommerce 10.9.4

3.0.3

• Fix: my_fs() incorrectly fell back to another Dreamfox plugin's unrelated Freemius accessor (dfm_sgppfw_fs, from the shipping plugin) instead of a plain no-op stub — a leftover copy-paste reference that could sync the wrong plugin's basename if that plugin's premium build were ever active alongside this one.

3.0.2

• Tested with the latest WordPress (7.0.1) and WooCommerce (10.9.4) versions.
• Fixed Contributors field: "dreamfoxmedia" is not a valid WordPress.org username (was being silently dropped on import); corrected to "dreamfox".
• Corrected Stable tag/Version, which had drifted to a stale "2.5.1" that was never actually released (actual last release was 3.0.1) — readme.txt and the plugin header just hadn't been kept in sync with the real release tags.
• Removed duplicate hardcoded version strings from the plugin code; the version constant is now read from the plugin header at runtime instead of being copy-pasted in multiple files.

2.5.1

• Updated Freemius SDK from 2.13.1 to 2.13.2
