Creating a Service

  1. Go to Business Panel → Services → New Service
  2. Fill in the Name, Description, Duration, and Price
  3. Upload a cover Image (recommended: 800×500px, JPG or PNG)
  4. Toggle Requires Payment if clients must pay at booking
  5. Toggle Is Active on
  6. Save — the service is now visible on your booking page

{primary.fa-lightbulb-o} Set Duration accurately — it determines how many bookings fit in a day. A 60-minute service with a provider working 9am–5pm generates 8 available slots.

Assigning Providers

Each service can be delivered by one or more providers. Clients choose a provider when booking.

To assign providers:

  1. Edit the service
  2. Open the Providers tab
  3. Check each provider who offers this service
  4. Save
Service edit page — name, description, duration, price, and provider assignment

{warning.fa-exclamation-triangle} A service with no providers assigned will not appear on the booking page — even if the service itself is active. Always assign at least one active provider.

Availability & Slots

Available time slots are calculated dynamically at booking time. The slot engine respects:

Factor Effect
Provider working hours Slots only generated within the provider's enabled hours for that day
Service duration Slots are spaced by the service duration (e.g. 60min service → 9:00, 10:00, 11:00…)
Existing confirmed bookings Already-booked slots are blocked and not shown
Provider active status Inactive providers are excluded 
Provider works: 9:00 – 17:00
Service duration: 90 minutes

Generated slots:
  09:00 → 10:30
  10:30 → 12:00
  12:00 → 13:30
  13:30 → 15:00
  15:00 → 16:30

Total: 5 slots per day

{success.fa-check-circle} Slots are generated in real time — no pre-population or caching. A slot only appears if it is genuinely available the moment the customer views the page.
