    Is there a way that instead the admin approve the booking, the vendor will approve his own booking order? WC Vendors + WC Bookings using 🙂

    Cheers !

    Hi Brylle,

    WC Vendors doesnt have any Bookings support yet, if you’d made it work, what did you do? 🙂

    To allow vendors to publish their own products without requiring approval, just set that in wp-admin > WooCommerce > WC Vendors settings pages…..

    Cheers

    Hi Ben,
    Yeah i already did that Ben 🙂 – To allow vendors to publish their own products

    I just change the default settings of the product type from simple to booking.

    /**
    * WC_Meta_Box_Product_Data Class
    */
    class WC_Meta_Box_Product_Data {

    /**
    * Output the metabox
    */
    public static function output( $post ) {
    global $post, $thepostid;

    wp_nonce_field( ‘woocommerce_save_data’, ‘woocommerce_meta_nonce’ );

    $thepostid = $post->ID;

    if ( $terms = wp_get_object_terms( $post->ID, ‘product_type’ ) ) {
    $product_type = sanitize_title( current( $terms )->name );
    } else {
    $product_type = apply_filters( ‘default_product_type’, ‘booking’ ); <—– this line Ben hope it helps to other developers
    }

    $product_type_selector = apply_filters( ‘product_type_selector’, array(
    ‘simple’ => __( ‘Simple product’, ‘woocommerce’ ),
    ‘grouped’ => __( ‘Grouped product’, ‘woocommerce’ ),
    ‘external’ => __( ‘External/Affiliate product’, ‘woocommerce’ ),
    ‘variable’ => __( ‘Variable product’, ‘woocommerce’ )
    ), $product_type );

    Hope you will add support to wc booking to wc vendors free plugin Ben 🙂
    Like the vendors can approve their booking order and if the customer request check availability of the product it sends notification to the owner/vendor etc.

    Cheers

    Hi Ben I have the pro version and I need bookings to be requested first before approval, since clients might be listed on other sites as well. Where can I see these bookings its not showing up on the dashboard

    WC Vendors does not support Bookable products yet. When it does, you’ll get an email with a feature release. No expected date for support, but we’ll get to it.

    Well I bought it on the assumption that bookings will be working. Is there anyway that the backend can be opened again? That seems to have worked better than the current dashboard. I need somebody to be able to place their bookable product online and let other people book it. Can it be that difficult for people with programming skills. Im a novice and follow what people say they can do on their plug ins. But every time it just seems harder to get the correct plugin

    It says on the Pro page that Bookings is a feature that is coming soon. It’s not listed as a current feature.

    Your vendors can certainly use /dashboard/ or /vendor_dashboard/ whichever you prefer. You mentioned that Bookings “cant be that difficult”. You have nooooooooo idea. 🙂 It’s actually incredibly difficult, because the plugin is very complex, and so is managing orders in that fashion. It’s not just two lines of code and voila all done. It’s a substantial undertaking.

    Ok Im just very frustrated I need vendors to add bookings and accommodation and users to be able to search available space all within listify theme. At the moment it seems the request for availability is send to the person requesting the availability rather than the owner of the premises to approve availability. The email that gets send send the recipient to the back end rather than frontend dashboard as well. If I can allow user to see backend I can at least let them approve bookings there.

    Except that none of that will actually work. It’s not just a matter of giving someone access to see things in wp-admin. It’s a matter of detailing exactly what they can see, ensuring they have the permissions via hooks/filters/actions, structuring the data correctly so it shows only theirs, building the calendar apps so they actually work, and tweaking the entire system so it’s vendor based not admin based.

    To give you an idea, it’s going to take us an estimated 80-100 hours of code time to get Bookings compatible with WC Vendors Pro. You wont be frustrated for long, but it is still going to be a few months out, when v1.4.0 is released.

    Awaiting your update with bated breath. I just think something went wrong with last version, when I reply to email about confirming availability it sends me to the customer page not vendor. I can send you my details if you wanne have a look

    I have no idea what that means. Could you describe the issue in greater detail of exactly what is being sent to who and why and screenshots?

    Oh. Well, you’re trying to do something that WC Vendors doesnt support yet, so I’m surprised you even got that far. There’s no code to support what you want. It’s not in the plugin and not written yet. You’re trying to make Chocolate ice cream while only having a vanilla bean and no milk. 🙂
