Hi,

I’m trying to setup a form where people can reserve a time block.

Let’s say there is 10 blocks available from 10AM to 11AM.

So each time somebody takes one, it disappear from the ”inventory”.

I tried to figure it with the case here https://toolset.com/forums/topic/trying-to-develop-material-management-system/ (it uses hammers, as I’d do with tine-blocks) but I’m afraid I’m not familiar enough with hooks.

I don’t need a calendar, only an ”inventory” of time-blocks.

Any idea?

Many thx

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

There is no built-in feature available in Toolset for this, so it will need some workaround.

For example, you can add each time slot as a WooCommerce product and make sure that the inventory for each product is set to '1'.
(so that multiple users can't order/reserve the same time slot again)

The user can add the desired time slot product and complete the checkout process and it will be reserved for that user. This will be especially useful if you also need to collect some payment from the user for this reservation.

There are several dedicated booking and appointment plugins available for WordPress too and the following articles review, some of the popular options:
