Calendars

Pinpoint is a comprehensive WordPress Booking Calendar that will allow your customers to make online reservations in just a few steps through your WordPress website. The front end and back end calendars look quite similar, allowing you to see what your customers see.

As all the other components, calendars are made of four sections: items list, configuration, summary and calendar preview. If you haven’t created any calendars yet, a large “add” button with a message is displayed, guiding you to create the first item in the list.

After you have created a new calendar, you have to choose its availability type from the provided list: days, nights, hours or hours intervals. This way, you can define for how long your service can be booked - it can go from days to minutes. Once you have selected the availability type it cannot be changed, you will need to create a new calendar.

After you choose the type, our setup wizard will help you configure the basic settings. It is completely optional, as you can skip these steps and edit your calendar from the configuration section at any time.
