Dynamic TimeSlots
djdj apps
There are two possible options for this:
Admin-based setting
Provider-based setting
But your system is currently fully provider-based, so I will explain it in that way.
Provider-Based Time Slot Settings
In the provider panel and app, you can create a new page called Time Slot Settings.
I will explain the advance booking system. You can design and implement it in your own way.
At a minimum, the following fields are required:
- Slot Duration
This field defines the duration of each slot.
Example:
If the provider sets 1 hour, slots will be shown every 1 hour.
If the provider sets 5 minutes, slots will be shown every 5 minutes.
- Break Time (in minutes)
This field defines the gap between slots.
Example:
If slot duration is 1 hour, slots will normally show as:
9:00, 10:00, 11:00
If the provider sets a 30-minute break, slots will show as:
9:00, 10:30, 12:00
- Booking Delay (in hours)
This controls how much delay is required for same-day bookings.
Example:
If the current time is 1:00 PM
And the provider sets a 1-hour booking delay
The first available slot will be shown from 2:00 PM
This is a mandatory field. At least this option is required.
- Multiple Bookings (Optional)
Provide an Enable / Disable option.
If enabled, show a field where the provider can set the number of allowed bookings (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4).
Example:
If set to 2, the same time slot (e.g., 9:00 AM) can be booked twice.
After two bookings, that slot will be blocked and the next slot (10:00 AM) will be shown.
This is useful for providers who have multiple workers, so they can handle more than one job at the same time.
- Working Hours
This option already exists in your system.
All these options are already implemented in my website (brobookme.com). You can check it for reference.
