原文外掛簡介
Qaiyo Smart Appointment is a clean, fast scheduling plugin for service businesses — salons, clinics, coaches, consultants, studios and freelancers.
Its standout feature is fluid slot allocation. Most booking plugins slice the day into a fixed grid for one chosen duration. Qaiyo instead works on the open gaps around existing appointments and fits each requested service into whatever space is left. Book a 2-hour service, then a 1-hour one, and the remaining time stays fully bookable for any mix of shorter or longer services that still fit — packed dynamically, never wasted.
Free features
Fluid, gap-based slot engine (mixed durations in the same day)
Unlimited services, staff members and bookings — no caps of any kind
Step-by-step booking wizard, placed with a shortcode [qsab_booking], a Gutenberg block, or a native widget in Elementor, Bricks, Breakdance or Oxygen — the same settings in every one
“Anyone available” or specific staff selection
Per-service duration, price, colour and buffer times
Fixed mode too — classic back-to-back time bands, if you prefer them, set globally or per service
Quote requests — a booking mode that reserves no time at all: the customer names a preferred day and part of day and asks for a price, so an enquiry never takes a slot away from a real booking and two enquiries never clash
Online payments — require payment before confirming a service, and the customer pays on a hosted checkout before the booking is confirmed. WooCommerce is the built-in provider, so you keep whatever gateways your shop already has (card, PayPal, bank transfer, cash on arrival)
Working hours per staff member, with split shifts (e.g. a lunch break), falling back to your global opening hours
Days off / vacation blocking
Soft hold — a request can leave the time open until you approve it, so an enquiry never locks a resource; first approval wins
One-click Approve / Decline buttons right inside the admin notification email
Editable emails — five messages (request received, confirmed, cancelled, completed, reminder) plus the admin alert, each with its own on/off switch and its own wording, written with merge tags like {customer_name} and {when}
Appointment reminders — an automatic email a set number of hours before a confirmed booking, sent once and only once
Public availability calendar — [qsab_availability] shortcode and block showing free and fully-booked days at a glance, with no customer details on the page
Spam trap on the booking form, so bots cannot fill your calendar with junk requests
One-click confirm / cancel / complete in the admin, and permanent delete (single or in bulk) for clearing out test data
Customer self-cancellation links
Settings export / import (JSON)
FluentCRM integration — add booking customers to your lists & tags automatically
Qaiyo ecosystem dashboard card — if you also run Qaiyo Admin Booster, a “Today’s appointments” card on your WordPress dashboard shows today’s booking count and the next appointment’s time
11 built-in languages (EN, HU, DE, FR, ES, JA, PT, IT, RU, TR, PL)
Pro features
Multiple locations, each with its own services, staff and hours
Customer booking portal — a page where customers look up and cancel all their upcoming bookings, with no account to create
Stripe and PayPal connected directly, for sites with no WooCommerce
Deposits — collect a percentage or a fixed amount up front instead of the full price
Two-way Google / Outlook / iCloud calendar sync
SMS & WhatsApp notifications
Five more booking modes: group sessions for classes and workshops, hourly and multi-day rentals where the customer picks the length, an arrival-order queue, and recurring series booked in one go
Waiting list with automatic notify-on-free
Per-staff date-specific days off and a staff login dashboard
Custom branding (colour, font, logo) on the booking form
Three more booking form layouts on top of the free wizard
A richer “Today’s appointments” dashboard card (with Admin Booster) — the next three bookings with names and services, and a one-click link to the calendar
Zoom / Google Meet links, Zapier / webhooks, reporting and coupons

External services
This plugin makes one outbound request, and only from the WordPress admin.
WordPress.org plugin directory API — used by the “Discover Qaiyo” screen
(Smart Booking → Discover Qaiyo) to list the plugin author’s other free plugins so
you can install one without leaving your site.
What it is used for: fetching the public plugin listings (name, description,
icon, ratings, install count) for author “qaiyo”.
When the request happens: only when a logged-in administrator opens that screen,
and at most once every 12 hours — the response is cached in a transient.
What is sent: the query itself (the author name and the fields requested). This
goes through WordPress’s own plugins_api() function, which is the same call the
built-in Plugins → Add New screen makes. No personal data, no site data and
nothing about your visitors or bookings is transmitted.
Endpoint: https://api.wordpress.org/plugins/info/1.2/
This service is provided by WordPress.org: terms of service,
privacy policy.
The booking form itself makes no external requests. Booking data stays in your
database, and notification emails are sent with wp_mail() through whatever your
site is already configured to use.
