This release (3.3) optimizes the appointment loading times, adds new functionality for restricting calendar days and fixes a lot of bugs. You can now also edit appointment summary details in email via WooCommerce templates, add more appointment data and configure the output.
Faster Available Slots
Available date/time slots are now presented lightning fast and you can also cache the output with external caching plugins to make it even faster, like WP Rocket. In previous releases, there were a lot of bottlenecks around available slot loading, which are now gone and you can enjoy the speedier booking experience.
Restricted Days
We’re really excited to offer you such a simple feature to restrict selected days on the calendar. There are a lot of businesses that offer appointments/events that span over multiple days. There are also situations, when businesses only want to offer appointments/events that start on certain days and are restricted on other. With this update, you can now easily restrict days, when you don’t want customers to be able to schedule appointment/event. You will stay operational, but won’t accept bookings that start on these restricted days.
