WooCommerce Bookings

Allow customers to book appointments, make reservations, or rent equipment without leaving your site.

Select an end date for “Duration” from a calendar, instead of number of days in Bookings extension

Option to select the Booking end date from a calendar instead of counting and entering the duration manually.

In the use case of item rentals or room bookings that can span multiple days, weeks or even months, the site visitor currently would have to look at a calendar and count up the number of days and make that numeric entry. This could be prone to error.

A working example would be any major hotel chain or car rental website, where you select your check in and check out dates from calendars.

    Essential update, along with global availability search. Current method is unintuitive.

    First…it was awesome to see you guys at WooConf in San Francisco. I was debating between using this plugin for a vacation rental site I’m doing vs. a competing similarly named booking plugin that seems specifically geared towards rentals. I feel confident in what you guys are doing to support your customers and I’m excited to see this feature getting put up for a vote. I’d love to be notified when/if this feature is added as it would be very helpful.

    Would be fine!

    This would be one of our decision making issues regarding this plugin. Something we really are searching for.

    Hi, recently purchased the booking plugin, and having the same concern.

    I think the biggest part rather comes from that end time/date is not obvious to the customers than that letting the customers select durations.
    It seems like you already have the end date/time in the code.
    I guess just giving us an option to show the end date/time to the form does a quick work around.
    Please consider.
    Regards,

    To add to this, it would be great to have all hours / days etc of a booking highlight on the calendar, from start to finish.

    So for example if a bookable product is for a 5 day tour package, when a user clicks to choose their start day it highlights also the following 4 days so they can clearly see all 5 days of their tour highlighted. Currently the calendar only highlights the start day.
