Tell us what you are trying to do?

To understand if it's possible to connect data between Toolset and woocommerce/woobooking in order to create a calendar based cart to manage hotel-apartments and/or activities reservations

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Not at the moment

Is there a similar example that we can see?

Any kind of website related to apartments reservations system more likely airbnb as accommodation + experience reservation system

What is the link to your site?

Not yet implemented

Hi, I'll be glad to help, but I'm not sure I understand how you would like to use Toolset together with the WooCommerce Booking system.

Could you provide a bit more specific information about how you would like to use data from Toolset in WooCommerce Bookings, or how you would like to use data from WooCommerce Bookings in Toolset? It seems like WooCommerce Booking provides all the necessary functionality to create this type of shopping interface, so I'm not clear what additional functionality you would like from Toolset.

Hello Cristian,

my excuses,

sorry for poor explanation, I hope to be able to explain it more clearly below,

user should be able to choose a start and end date in a calendar for an accomodation or an experience to get an availability list and afterwards make a choice adding "product" to cart then checkout must be processed with relative payment.

Product can be an apartment or an experience.

Also there should be the possibility to load data about accommodation and or experience as of current page context while browsing through the site.

All data about availability resides on an external server, property management system, and it is available through an api.

Can toolset perform these tasks ?

Can toolset load these data through an external api ?

Can toolset process cart and payments or does it require woocommerce ?

And if it requires woocommerce does it require woobooking too in order to correctly relate wit database fields ?

Thanks for your support

Views allows you to filter posts using custom fields. If you include start and end dates as custom fields in each post, then it would be possible to create a custom search form that includes a date range picker. Any posts that include start and end dates that fall inside the date range will be shown in the results. Integrating this View with a shopping cart and checkout would require WooCommerce or another e-Commerce platform for WordPress.

Can toolset load these data through an external api ?
No, Toolset is designed to work with data in the WordPress database, stored in the standard post and related postmeta tables, or user and usermeta tables. Any external data source must be imported into WordPress as posts and custom post meta fields, or users and custom usermeta fields..

Can toolset process cart and payments or does it require woocommerce ?
Toolset doesn't include any built-in e-Commerce functionality like carts or payments. You must handle carts and payments using WooCommerce or Shopify or some other WordPress e-Commerce platform. We offer a couple of integration plugins specifically for WooCommerce, and we address more questions about using WooCommerce here in the forums.
