If you want your clients to be able to book time for a piece of equipment or a specific space, you can set up your site to manage these reservations. To do so, you will need to create a staff member for each resource, set up an appointment service, and add availability for that resource. Below are steps to get started.
- To begin, you'll treat the space or equipment as a "staff member" within Pike13. This allows you to manage and track bookings for that specific resource. Here’s how to set it up: add a new staff member
- You will need to enter the required information of first name, last name and an email address. Typically the name of the staff member identifies the resource the client is booking.
- You will also need to create an unique email address. If you are using a Gmail address, you can create an email by adding a + to the end of your username (but before the "@"). For example, username+studioa@gmail.com.
- To allow clients to reserve the equipment or space, you will create an appointment service then add staff availability for when the resource is available for booking.
