We use the plug in to allow our members to book regular events. At the moment they have to book each event individually. I would like to see a feature that would allow booking multiple events and only filling the form out once.
For now I’m not going to implement this, the reason is that the number of seats per event can be different, so booking for multiple events at once can result in a failure for some of the events.
Of course, feel free to create such an addon and I’ll gladly integrate it if it takes all possible scenarios in account.
I would +1 this feature.
None of my events require more than one “seat”. I am using the plugin to schedule freelance work. There is a reoccurring event each day that my services are available. There are times that I client would like to reserve me for several days. This feature would eliminate the need for the client to book each day individually.
In fact my point of view on this matter changed over time, and it is on my shortlist of features to implement next 🙂
Great! Looking forward to it!
I created a new shortcode called eme_add_multibooking_form that lets you use either a comma-seperated list of event id’s or a recurrence id for which you want to do multiple bookings in one go.
It also has a template id for the header, entry and footer of the form list. More info will follow in the doc I’ll be writing for this shortcode (as it is rather complicated at first sight, but simple once you get the hang of it and using an example eases things even more 🙂 )Thank you for your great support! I’m am excited to see if this addition will fit my situation!
*Poke: Robert, where did you go? 😀
Read the doc about it here already, and see if it would fit:
http://www.e-dynamics.be/wordpress/?cat=5968Everything looks great and makes sense except for this:
If you have a reoccurring event with id=1 set for each day of the week, how will the user book M, T, W, but not Th, F, Sat?
Can they only book for all of the reoccurring events if using the “recurrence_id” parameter?
Yes, either a recurrence or a list of ids. Implementing an exclusion is the same as just setting a list of ids. Also, the recurrence option results in a list of all events in the recurrence, not 1 booking for the whole recurrence. Maybe that should be different, but it is taking a lot of my free time … and if it would be 1 booking for the whole recurrence, I would still need to figure out how to do the mailing then …
So maybe I’ll just remove the recurrence option again, to have less confusion.Yes, I understand how things could get complicated with this.
Thank you for your time – we appreciate it!
The multi-booking thingie seems ready to me 🙂
I updated the doc for that part already, with even emails being done right now.Looks like some good features. Thank you for your work!
