Booking Duration:
This field allows you to define a duration of your product. The duration of each product your customers will be buying. Here, since we would be using this for a Consultancy for a limited timeframe,
so suggested to keep the duration type as “Fixed blocks of” and 30 minutes/60 minutes, since we would be using Zoom meeting so the unit should be in Minutes.
Calendar display mode:
The calendar on the product page displays availability on a calendar. So this field simply on/off for the calendar be already expanded or appear as a clickable button.
Please keep it as “Calendar always visible”.
Next, please keep the following options unchecked or keep the default settings (as shown below) to maintain the uniformity of the HealThyRam site’s seetings/policies.
Now, move ahead to the next important section, availability which allows your customers to book slot accordingly. Below is an example how you may set your availability.
Let us understand each of these options.
Block:
Understanding this makes the following things a lot more easier. A block is the minimum unit of your product which you are making available for booking. As most booking products are unlike regular products, which are not time dependent. But booking products are time dependent, subject to maintenance and do not have any shipping.
Max bookings per block:
This field allows you to book the product multiple times within the available time frame. Say, you want only 1 person joining a session/appointment, so keep it 1.
Minimum booking window:
It is the minimum duration of time during which a customer will have to book your next available appointment. Say, your next available schedule is on 17th of this month, but you want at least 2 days before that day to allow for booking.
If today is March 14 and you set minimum block bookable to 2 days into the future, then the first date a customer could book would be March 17. The same applies to the maximum date bookable.
Maximum booking window:
The maximum range of available booking for the product from the next available date. So, if your next available booking for your product is on 17th this month and the maximum booking window is 7 days, then on the product page a customer will be shown booking availability up to 24th.
Here is an example on a calendar how these dates will work.
Require a buffer period of:
The unit for buffer period changes automatically with your block unit duration.
Based on the unit of time set for the booking (minutes, hours or days), you can specify a period of time after a bookable slot that is unavailable for anyone else to book. For example, if you sell appointments in 1-hour blocks and wish to have a break of 1 hour between them, you can specify a buffer period.
All dates are:
Depending on how you want to set up availability, this option allows you to set available by default or not available by default. “Available by default” means all blocks are available and you can specifically turn some off with rules, where “not available by default” means all blocks are not available and must be turned on through availability rules.
Check rules against:
You have two options:
All blocks being booked – This checks all available blocks within a duration. For example if a customer chooses to book for 5 days and 1 block is equal to 1 day, it will check availability for all 5 days.
Starting block only – This checks the first block the user selects. For example if a customer chooses to book for 5 days and 1 block is equal to 1 day, it will only check availability for the first day.
First Blocks starts at…
You can set start time of your first block.
Set availability range
Each field is tagged with a (?) hint text which explains each field.
Fix the range for your booking availability according to days months hours or minutes and many other ways. You can add multiple Ranges and reorganize priority by dragging too.
If Bookable is set to ‘No’ for a Time/Date range means that range shall not be available for booking. In the example, you can see the Time Range from 19:00 in the evening to 10:00 in the morning is not available for booking.
You can read from the image, how the Priority number works. The lover the priority number the earlier that applies.
Further, you can read below detailed guide on setting availability rules.
You can set up specific availability rules, such as availability for:
- Months
- Day of the week
- Time
- Specific date
To add a rule, select Add Range:
A new row is created, where you can choose a range type, from/to, whether it’s bookable or not (yes or no) and a priority number.
The from/to values differ based on the range type:
- Date range – from/to will show a datepicker/calendar selection field
- Range of days – from/to will show a dropdown of days of the week (Monday to Sunday)
- Range of months – from/to will show a dropdown of months (January to December)
- Range of weeks – from/to will show a dropdown of weeks (1 to 52)
- Time ranges – from/to will show time inputs
- Date Range with time – period with a start date/time and an end date/time. Range applies from start time on the start day to end time on the end date.
- Date Range with recurring time – set based on a custom date range. Range is repeated on each day in the date range.
Note that the time ranges are not opening hours, but booking hours. If you offer 1-hour time blocks and your shop is open from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm, your last booking is at 5:00 pm, not 6:00 pm.
By default, Global availability rules take priority over product level availability rules and product availability rules take priority over resource priority rules. The order can be changed using the priority numbers. A lower priority, irrespective of context, overrides any other context with higher priority number. For example, a 9 will always override 10, even if 10 is on the Global level.
If multiple rows have the same priority, the rules higher on the list will take priority.
Rows can be removed by clicking the X on the far right, or dragged and dropped to sort using the handle on the far left.
Also be aware that availability options can be set up globally if all bookable products share some dates.
Costs for Bookable Products:
The two main costs you can add are Base cost and Block cost.
- Base cost is applied regardless of a customer’s choices on the booking form.
- Block cost is the cost per block that was assigned in the General tab. If a customer books multiple blocks, this cost is multiplied by the number of blocks booked.
Display cost does not affect the actual cost of the product. In the example above, the product page displays 300 on the frontend. The cost is displayed to the user on the frontend. Leave blank to have it calculated for you. If a booking has varying costs, the lowest available cost is shown and is prefixed with the word “From:”
Beneath the display cost, you have an area where you can define extra costs. This works similar to availability. Click Add Range to begin:
A row appears where you can input the range type, from/to and cost:
The from/to values differ based on the range type:
- Date range – from/to will show a datepicker field
- Range of months – from/to will show a dropdown of months (January to December)
- Range of weeks – from/to will show a dropdown of weeks (1 to 52)
- Range of days – from/to will show a dropdown of days of the week (Monday to Sunday)
- Time range – from/to will show time inputs
- Date range with time – set based on a custom date range
- Persons count – from/to will show number inputs
- Block count – from and to will show number inputs
Base cost and Block cost can be added, subtracted, multiplied or divided by the amount you enter. Since version 1.10.9, you can also directly set the costs applied for the rule.
Rows can be removed by clicking the X on the far right, or dragged and dropped to sort using the handle on the far left.
If multiple rows match, all additional costs are used.
Description: Write description about the product to know visitor about it and its specialty.
Next, you can Add some Short Description as well, which appears to the right side of the product page. Bulleted feature text is suggested here to appear nicely and firmly establish the product features and quality at a quick glance.
Step 2: Enable Zoom Meeting

Default Host: Choose your “Company/Brand Name” from the list; donot select any other Host Name other than yours as that would create conflict and you shall not be able to Host/Join the Zoom meeting.
