Hello, Eagle-Themes. How are you guys? I have sent these questions in another of your themes. Feel free to comment on the one you believe bets fits.

I have some pre-sales questions. I have looked at the description of your plugin, but I’m not sure if it fits to our scenario here. Could you help me, please? These are very specific to our situation, so don’t worry if your plugin doesn’t cover everything.

Situation: I have a project that receives people only when we have events. It is a project that has 3 hostels of different sizes and features. There are different kinds of events and, therefore, the price to visit and to sleep here are different according to each event. If someone wants to sleep here, they cannot sleep on varied dates. They will pay the price of the total event and enjoy all the perks of the event.

For example: There are 2 events in a given month. 1. The first event costs $100 to visit and $350 to sleep the 3 days of the event. 2. The second event costs $70 to visit and $600 to sleep the 7 days of the event.

We would like to know if it is possibile to do the following with your plugin:

1. Rent entire hostel, room or only beds: we have family and group options to rent not only the bed, but the entire room or the entire hostel for the event. Each with its own prices.

Something like this: - Category: Hostel ($1500) - Sub-category: Rooms ($1000) —- Items: Beds ($350)

The person can rent just a bed for the duration of the event, they can rent the room for their family for the duration of the event or they can rent the entire hostel for their group for the duration of the event. It can’t be less than the duration of the event. They can always checkout early if they wish, but they can’t purchase fewer days than the event’s duration unless the event allow it.

For example: In an event of 10 days, you can stay 10 or 5 sequential days. There would be two options when deciding to rent the bed/room/hostel. Something like this: - Category: Hostel (10 days – $1500; 5 days – $900) - Sub-category: Rooms (10 days – $1000; 5 days – $600) —- Items: Beds (10 days – $350; 5 days – $250)

2. Sell participation tickets for those who will be here to visit. Somebody can buy the pass for only one day (whichever day they wish to participate). Possible to buy multiple passes (for example, I can only visit the place on monday, wednesday and friday).

3. Option to add items they consume here (like books, soda, etc). Point of sale, for example. Items tied to the person’s expense history.

4. Possibility to only allow purchase of fixed dates of the event. For example, if the event is for 3 days, somebody can’t rent a room for only 1 day. They can only buy the full packet of 3 days for X price.

5. Allow people to manage their bookings and payments.

I understand these are very specific and the plugin may not cover every aspect. If you could just inform me what can e done, I’d be very grateful. Thank you ahead of time for your time and work.

Hello, guys. Pre-sales questions. I have searched through your theme’s page and website and there are a few things that I still haven’t found an answer to. Could you help me?

(There’s no need to answer the questions from the first comment, unless you believe it would be something important to comment on.)

1. Is it possible to rent rooms and beds, like a hostel? (Have both options for a room.)

2. When we select a room and we navigate out to select a second room, the first room is removed from booking. Is it possible to rent multiple rooms/beds?

3. After selecting the payment option to pay upon arrival and complete the booking process, there’s an option to check our booking. If someone wants to make the payment then, is it possible?

4. Is it possible to add custom fields to checkout that would ask for information we need from the person, such as ID, name of people that will stay in the room, license plate number (for parking), etc?

5. Are there shortcodes for this theme? For example to list all rooms with availability at a certain dates/period? This would allow us to add the rooms directly to an event page with the dates already prefilled and the person would just have to select number of people and confirm booking.

6. Our hostel doesn’t work with daily rates, but with bundled days (due to the events we have). Would it be possible to not show the price per day and instead show the price for the period of the event? For example: We will have a 3 day event. We set the minimum booking days to 3 and max to 3. The only possible dates to book would be from the 1st till the 4th. The person is given the price for that period (which is different every event). Is this possible if we set different rates per weekend/season/period/etc per room/bed?

7. Is it possible to allow services on certain dates and not allow on others? For example, the event from 1st till the 4th will have a massage therapist here. Therefore, offer massages. The next event won’t have it, therefore, no option for massages.

Observations and Suggestions

1. The widget on the sidebar with the button “check availability” goes directly to booking page. Shouldn’t it only check availability and if available, have the option to book now?

2. The checkout page isn’t optimized. The CSS is a bit off.

3. If there is a minimum booking dates set, as of now there doesn’t seem to have info on the page showing. So when we click to book, we are redirected to a page that gives an error message. Is it possible to indicate the minimum dates when selecting the dates? Maybe also leave the “book now” button grayed out untill the correct criteria is met.
