    Hiya. I had a quick search through the forums but couldn’t find an answer to this one.
    When a booking is confirmed, or edited, there is that checkbox that sends an email to the customer. Is there a way to have it automatically checked, or to by default send an email to the customer? We commonly have the problem where a manager will confirm the booking and not check the box so the customer doesn’t get an email and has no idea what going on. Likewise for when they modify an existing booking

  • Hi @kynseeker,

    If you’re a developer comfortable working with PHP and WordPress’s hooks system to extend plugins, you can hook into the fields array and modify the field to always be checked.

    You can see how the admin-specific fields are added here:

    https://github.com/NateWr/restaurant-reservations/blob/master/includes/AdminBookings.class.php#L361

    Setting the field’s request_input key to always true will make it checked by default.

    Alternatively, have you thought about using the bulk actions UI to confirm/reject bookings? It will actually be quicker and notifications are sent out when using that tool. You just click the checkbox by a booking, then select Set to Confirmed from the dropdown above the bookings list, then click Apply.
