Conflicting Events

[Tyler]

We are using the plugin for people to be able to reserve a room in a building, is there a way to not let a user sign up for the same time as someone else if the room is already reserved for that time? Right now it lets a user sign up for a time that is already reserved for the same building.
Also is there a way to limit the time that a user can reserve the room to just 8 am to 5 pm?

Hey Tyler,

Thanks for reaching out!

Our plugins are not built for “reservations”, and so while you can certainly use it in this way, there is no support for preventing double-booking, for example. 🙁

Sorry to disappoint!

ok I thought I’d check, is there a way we can limit the time that users can put for the events?

Hey Tyler,

There unfortunately isn’t a way to impose such limits with extensive custom coding that would fall far outside the scope of support we can provide.

You would have to embark on that custom coding on your own, or hire a professional developer to assist you. We have a list of great developers here, and have no affiliation with any of these folks; they’re simply some well-respected names in the community that we’ve compiled. ? http://m.tri.be/18k1

To try and help that along a bit, if you want to modify the time pickers to limit the time ranges available for the user to choose, open up your code editor and use its search tools to find these functions:
• tribe_community_events_form_start_time_selector()
• tribe_community_events_form_end_time_selector()

☝️You can explore these functions and work backwards from within them to limit the amount of times shown to the user and such.

I hope this bit of information helps! Best of luck with your customizations and with your project as a whole.

Sincerely,
George
