How it works
This module was created for a workflow without an existing booking system, using WordPress CF7 form which then sends the lead to the internal team.
The process can be as follows:
How to setup the module
The available dates are generated automatically based on your configuration — no manual setup of dates needed. Weekends are always skipped.
Before you add this module to a page
You need to create a Contact Form 7 form first. The module uses that form to collect contact details and send the email notification.
Go to Contact → Add New and paste the following into the form body:
// Two fields per row using Bootstrap grid
<div class="form-group row">
<div class="col-md-6"><label>First Name:* [text* first-name class:form-control]</label></div>
<div class="col-md-6"><label>Last Name:* [text* last-name class:form-control]</label></div>
</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<div class="col-md-6"><label>Email:* [email* email class:form-control]</label></div>
<div class="col-md-6"><label>Phone:* [tel* phone class:form-control]</label></div>
</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<div class="col-md-6"><label>Postal Code:* [text* postal-code class:form-control]</label></div>
<div class="col-md-6"><label>Company: [text company class:form-control]</label></div>
</div>
// These two lines are required — do not remove them
[hidden appointment-date]
[hidden appointment-time]
[submit "Submit"]
The fields [hidden appointment-date] and [hidden appointment-time] are required. Without them, the selected date and time will not be included in the notification email.
Also configure the Mail tab to include
[appointment-date] and [appointment-time]
in the email body so you receive the booking details.
1 Adding the module to a page
Edit the page, open the flexible content area, add a new module and choose Schedule Appointment Module.
You will see four tabs: Content, Configuration, Labels and Accessibility.
2 Content tab
CONTENT
-
Anchor
Optional. A short ID so other links on the page can jump directly to this module — e.g. book-appointment. Leave empty if not needed. -
Heading
The large heading shown in the left column — e.g. Book now in three easy steps. -
Main Copy
Body text in the left column. Explain what happens during the consultation, any conditions, links to other pages etc. -
Form
Search for and select the Contact Form 7 form you created in the step above. This is required — the module will not display without it. -
Classes
Optional. Extra CSS classes on the module wrapper. Leave empty unless instructed by a developer.
3 Configuration tab
CONFIGURATION
Controls the date and time picker. These settings are technical — if you are unsure leave the defaults as they are.
-
Number of days
How many working days to offer. Default is 12. Weekends are never shown regardless of this number. -
Days offset
How many days from today before the first available date. Default is 3, meaning the earliest option is 3 days from now. -
Start time
The earliest appointment time slot available — e.g. 09:00. -
End time
The latest appointment time slot available — e.g. 18:00. -
Time gap
The interval in minutes between time slots. 30 means slots are 09:00, 09:30, 10:00 etc.
4 Labels tab
LABELS
Every text label visible on the form. Translate these into the site language. If you clear a field and leave it empty that text will simply not appear on the page.
-
Step 1 / 2 / 3 label
The names shown in the step indicator at the top — e.g. Information, Details, Confirm. -
Required fields note
The small note above the form — e.g. Fields marked * are required fields. Clear to hide it. -
Next button text
The button that moves from Step 1 to Step 2 — e.g. Next: Choose date & time. -
Date / Time heading
Headings above the date picker and time dropdown in Step 2. -
Select one
The default placeholder in the time dropdown before the visitor makes a selection. -
Summary heading / text
A short message shown below the time picker — e.g. A local Culligan expert will contact you to confirm. Clear both to hide the section. -
