Booking calendar

The booking calendar is the customer-facing path from service selection to confirmation. Place it on a focused page with enough context to help customers complete the process.

Add the calendar to a page

Create or edit a WordPress page, insert the Cadence Booking Calendar block, and choose the services that should appear. Publish or update the page once the preview shows the intended booking flow.

Keep unrelated forms and calls to action away from the calendar. A short introduction, eligibility note, and cancellation-policy link are usually more useful than a long sales page at this stage.

Make service choices clear

Use distinct service names and descriptions. When several services are similar, state who each one is for, how long it lasts, whether payment is required, and what happens after booking.

The calendar only displays slots that satisfy the service and availability rules. If no times appear, review the attached schedule rather than adding dates directly to the page.

Test responsive and accessible use

Complete a booking with a keyboard and on a narrow mobile screen. Labels, focus states, validation messages, and available times should remain understandable without relying only on colour.

Also test in a private window while logged out of WordPress. Administrator sessions and cached page previews can hide the experience a real visitor receives.

Confirm the appointment

After a test submission, verify the confirmation screen, appointment record, customer email, and internal notification. If Stripe is enabled, confirm that the payment status corresponds to the appointment before treating the flow as ready for production.
