常见问题:
Does this plugin work without Square or any other third-party account?
Yes! The free version is 100% local. Everything — services, staff, bookings, availability — is managed inside WordPress. No Square account, no API keys, no external services needed.
How do customers book appointments?
Add the shortcode [yatoon_booking] to any WordPress page. Customers will see a beautiful multi-step booking form where they can choose a service, staff member, date and time, and enter their contact details.
Can customers book for multiple people at once?
Yes! The booking form supports group bookings. Customers can add services for themselves and additional guests (Guest 2, Guest 3, etc.) all in one appointment session.
Can I add multiple services per appointment?
Yes. Customers can add multiple services for themselves or for each person in their group. The form automatically calculates total duration and finds available time slots that fit everything.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes, fully. The booking form is responsive and mobile-optimized, with a floating cart bar that keeps the appointment summary visible while browsing services.
How do I limit how far in advance customers can book?
Go to Yatoon Booking → Settings and set the "Maximum booking window" (e.g. 60 days in advance) and "Minimum lead time" (e.g. 2 hours notice required).
Can I block specific customers?
Yes. Go to Yatoon Booking → Blacklist and add customer phone numbers to prevent them from making new bookings.
What happens when a time slot is fully booked?
Customers can join a waitlist. You'll see waitlisted customers in Yatoon Booking → Waitlist and can contact them if a cancellation opens up.
How do I upgrade to Pro?
Click ⬆️ Upgrade to Pro in the Yatoon Booking admin sidebar, or visit yatoon.com/pricing. After purchase, download the Pro ZIP from your account and install it via Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin.
Does the free version have any limits on services or staff?
Services are unlimited. Staff is limited to 2 members in the free version. Upgrade to Pro to add unlimited staff.
Is this compatible with my theme?
The booking form uses self-contained CSS and works with any standard WordPress theme. It does not depend on any page builder.
