    Hi,

    Sorry for re-asking a question you’ve already answered. This was asked 1yr ago so just wondering if anything has changed to allow this:

    I’m using the free version of your date picker plugin but I would need a way to show availability. I mean, if someone makes a reservation in my site (which is based on times and dates) I would need to disable the time which it’s already taken. In the free version I can disable a specific date but not only a specific slot of time inside a date. Is that possible with the pro version?

    Thanks very much

    Hi @tin_soldier

    Technically, this feature should work in the Basic plugin too so that whenever there’s a new booking made (Date or Time or Date and Time) it should be disabled from the upcoming bookings.

    You would need to use the Date and Time picker (Default) type in one single input field to make sure this is stored correctly.

    Let me know if that works.
    Alternatively, you can show a few screenshots of the settings area that shows the Disabled dates and times.

    Thank you!

    What I was really after was being able to block out specific time slots on specific dates in the admin.

    You have a field called ‘Disable specific dates’ which works perfectly for whole days but it would be great to be able to put: 01/Sep/2021:0930,03/Sep/2021:15:00 etc…

    I know the pro version can sync with an ics calendar which would work great but I need it to be based on a database entry as I need to change the unavailable slots externally.

    Hi @tin_soldier

    Yes, that option to disable specific time slots on specific days we don’t have at the moment. It is a good feature suggestion tho, which we will add to our backlog for future enhancements.

    Google has a tutorial on how to create events in Google Calendar from a Google Sheet file (assuming that you can export that database into a table format).

    If you cover that part, then it should be easy to sync IN and OUT with our Input WP PRO through .ics.

    Let me know how that sounds for you.

    Cheers!

    Thanks for that. It may be a good option.

    Cheers
