Using date picker to exclude a booking today

  • Hi,

    I’ve noticed some weird behavior when using the date picker. When I schedule a new appointment, the default behavior is that it selects “today” as the default, but if I select another day, I then can’t go back to “today”.

    I was hoping to remove his behavior by the date picker starting on “tomorrow”, but I can’t find the code to change this.

    I was also hoping to put some code behind the “book now” button as well, and I was hoping that somebody could point me towards where I could do that too if possible?

    Thanks
    Steve

    Thanks for the update!

    One of the problems with the calendar currently is that it is also possible to set a time in the past. Is there a way that I can just set the default position as tomorrow rather than today? Or is that the expected behaviour?

    I’ll try to be more specific:

    Due to timezone issues and such, it’s possible when you click on “today” (the current day you make a booking), that you can also select a time available in the past. I would like to somehow, just prevent people from booking on the same day and force them into only being able to begin from tomorrow.

    Is that the expected behavior? Or is being able to book a time that very day supposed to be what is supposed to happen?

    HI Steve,

    Seems you require a booking rule which prevents clients from booking on the same day. This would allow admin some buffer time before appointments are booked.

    Am I correct?

    Hi Ankit,

    Yeah, a buffer time would be suitable, I just thought it’d be easier to block the current day and book from the days that follow, as it’s what is closest to what I need.

    Thanks

    Hmm.. then this bug is ideal for this specific use case ??

    BTW how can I contact you over email? Wanted to discuss something which is kind of off-topic.

    My email is ankit [at] appointzilla.com

    Thanks,
    Ankit
