Introduction to the Administration Area

Welcome to Pinpoint.Docs and thank you for using Pinpoint Booking System WordPress Plugin.

In this short introduction, we hope to familiarise you with the product's admin area structure and navigation. It is important to understand how it works because this is where you'll be setting up your business, calendars and managing your clients' bookings. The administration area is composed of reservations management, businesses, calendars and extensions (interactive and passive) which can be found in the sidebar from the left. These are the components of the plugin.

With the exception of reservations, components are structured the same or very similar. Every component has four different sections, in the following order: the items list, component configuration, summary and calendar preview. You can display as many sections as your screen allows: on 2560px you can display all four sections at once, on 1920px up to three sections, on laptops two sections and on mobile devices you can display only one section at a time. You can hide or display sections by clicking on their name on top of the page. The active sections (meaning the ones that are currently displayed) will be highlighted in a dark grey.

The first section is the list of the items that have been created for a component. It includes a button for adding new items and a search input. Each item has a name and an ID that is displayed.

The second section is for configuring the component. It is basically composed of main settings and advanced settings. You can navigate through these by using the 'more' button (three dots) from the right. When you click it the page content becomes faded and only the available options are visible. Advanced settings and main settings have as well different options you can select from in the tabs below, that also become visible when you press the 'more' button. In the advanced settings, you can add subcomponents like availability and schedule periods, prices, values and conditions by using the 'add' button. When collapsed, subcomponents display the name, id and other relevant information. You can manage your lists by using the three buttons from the right: move/ rearrange, delete and expand/ collapse.

The third section is the component summary. Think of it as a map of all the subcomponents that have been created or that are available for each component. Its purpose is to give an overview of the settings that have been made and to help you find and edit them faster.

The fourth and final section is the calendar preview. Its purpose is to offer visual feedback about how the settings you create or edit will take effect in the calendar. You will not be able to click and select days/ hours from this calendar, as this section is view only.
