Exceptions for a date range

  • Please make it easier to add (and remove) exceptions for date ranges. Although I have asked this before I wanted to ask for it again with this supporting video.

    Yesterday there was a new announcement that restaurant must stay closed for another month due to the corona pandemic. This means that:
    * all old exceptions need to be removed
    * new exceptions need to be added day by day, 3 clicks per day.
    — 1 click on the button
    — 1 click in the field
    — 1 click on the date in the calendar (or 2 if for next month)

    This is not unique to the current pandemic. It is also needs to be done when restaurants close for their Holidays. And the same applies to the business profile plugin.

    Watch the video and let me know if you could watch it out all the way to the end.

    There has to be an easier way.
    * automatically remove old exceptions.
    * allow to add new exceptions for a date range. Best to save them like that, but for minimum impact it’s ok to save them as daily instances just like now

    Thanks
    JP

    Hi JP,

    Unfortunately, I can’t say anything more than the last time. We have it noted down as a feature request and hope to be able to add it in at some point. It just hasn’t made the cut for recent updates (not enough demand compared to other feature requests and the difficulty of implementing it).

    I know, just wanted to give a visual impression on how tedious it currently works.

    I also would like to see such implementation. Comment from a colleague:

    “Here, only individual days can be defined as a rule, but not entire periods (e.g. for company vacations, summer break, winter break …). For the second time I had the case that customers were closed for several weeks at a time; it would be a big effort to map that. So we usually leave it out at the moment.”
