I already have a system in my head where the core is fixed, and you can create a 'profile' for each use-case. The core can ship with a few profiles, but the main idea is that those profiles can be shared and copied for other users on a central place (website). One core, thousands of possibilities. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/bookings-appointments-reservations-and-rentals/page/4#post-348223 Thu, 27 Jun 2013 13:16:26 +0000 donnacha 348223@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>@tstruyf - Agreed, that is why I am so evangelical in my insistence that a good booking plugin should presume nothing about what it will be used for, apart from allowing a resource to be booked for a given slot of time.</p> <p>We need a really simple core upon which use-specific add-ons can layer the necessary language and rules for that use.</p> <p>It is insane that tens of thousands of developer hours have been flushed into making booking plugins that are simply unusable in real world situations. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/bookings-appointments-reservations-and-rentals/page/4#post-348132 Thu, 27 Jun 2013 12:15:57 +0000 tstruyf 348132@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm also been looking for a good system for months/years. The difficult part for the plugin-developers is the fact there are so many use-cases. This mostly leads to 2 scenario's:<br /> * The plugin can't do what you want it to do, because it was made for another purpose and doesn't support you use-case.<br /> * The plugin is too complex, allowing all sorts of configurations, making it impossible to use, or administer. Mostly accompanied by a horrible UI. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/multiple-choice-matrix#post-345659 Wed, 26 Jun 2013 07:41:07 +0000 Psyspi 345659@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>+1</p> <p>For those still seeking a workaround - I made a series of individual Radio Button fields, and then inserted an HTML Block before it, in which I typed the questions and the matrix headings. Then I used CSS to style it all and line everything up properly. It seems to be working very well.

I have managed vacation rentals since 2006 and still there is no effective booking system for Wordpress. I've tried other vendors and they all fall short and/or are extremely overpriced. This is the single most important functionality a vacation rental website can have and Wordpress does not have one. If you could make this happen, beers are on me! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/bookings-appointments-reservations-and-rentals/page/4#post-344008 Tue, 25 Jun 2013 09:20:58 +0000 mauricioquito 344008@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>+ 10! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/bookings-appointments-reservations-and-rentals/page/4#post-334940 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 17:25:39 +0000 tanzen 334940@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You might also want to take a look at an even more recent review I've conducted <a href="http://www.wpmayor.com/plugin-reviews/best-appointment-plugins-for-wordpress/" rel="nofollow">http://www.wpmayor.com/plugin-reviews/best-appointment-plugins-for-wordpress/</a> </p>
